It was a pioneer in operating a wireless system providing internet services to the Kurdistan Region. In 2005, TarinNet expanded its network and made it available within the governorate of Erbil and its suburbs through the Wi-Fi medium via the V-SAT satellite. This move was a success from the onset as it paved the way for TarinNet to be Kurdistan’s largest wireless internet provider leading to a number of other phenomenal projects in this regard.
