Internet (Planetary Net)
Internet is something the avid reader might be familiar with. Most minimally Developed planets have the Internal Network setup. Its one of the first steps usually taken when colonizing a new planet. In the Early days is wasn't but still a high Priority. As these Internets are the Lifeblood of the colonists allowing them to access all the information they need to ensure survival. Later they are used for Entertainment, Education, Communication and Navigation on the Surface and potentially a Satellite or Stations.
ExtraNet (System Net)
Extranets are rarely big and most of the time act only as a Relay between Multiple Internets and the RegNet. That being said some Systems have large Populations and have Systemwide Cultures and exchanges, in that case they can get quite Vibrant but act mostly as a Communication and Entertainment. Intersystem Transport systems might use it for Coordination. ExtraNets for the Military are very Important despite them being separated from the Civilian one, they combine Local Sensors, Platforms and act as a Local TACCOM and Force Tracker.
RegNet (Sector Net)
RegNets are the Sphere of the Big Corporations, the big Noble Families and Massive Entertainment Networks. Here live your Big Movie, Game and BP Distributers. RegNets are the most Policed Part of the the Net, it Has, besides the big Entertainment Distributions, a Large Repertoire of Information and Commons Blueprints and their Files to Reproduces or use for free! This can be as simple as a little program that can turn a sensor into a checker for Burnable material, Legacy Weapons, Clothing, Food etc. That is the biggest Reason why Fledgling Colonies Rush towards establishing their Communications networks and get a good Connection to their Sector Net, as without it only their Local Storge Array's hold the Answers and sometimes they are old or not applicable to the actual state of the Planet they are at.
StarNet (Empire Net)
At the Sheer Scale this Network Operates it is a Miracle it has as Fast of a Connection as it does. StarNet Has alot of Governmental Nodes, News and The Connective Tissue between Other RegNets and Other Empires. For the Military this is the Galactic STRATCOM.
