IT support, networking, and managed services for Taupō businesses since 1999.
It started in 1993 when Gary Dick helped build and run Taupō's first internet service provider at REAP — back when the entire country's internet ran through a single 64kbit/s link. Alternate Routing Ltd was incorporated in 1999, turning years of hands-on experience into a full-time IT business. A Linux user since the Slackware-on-floppy-disks era, Gary has always been driven by a love of technology and an obsession with figuring out what's next — whether that's Starlink, 3D printing, Raspberry Pi, or whatever lands on the horizon tomorrow.
Today ARL serves a broad cross-section of Taupō's businesses — hotels, motels, tourism operators, tradespeople, and professional services — covering network design, WiFi, Starlink, server builds, VoIP, web development, CCTV, and ongoing managed IT support.
Based in Taupō. Over 25 years of local IT experience. When you call, you get Gary.
