Why is it masculine?

Réseau is masculine because it derives from the Old French "réseau," a diminutive of "reis" (net), which comes from Latin "retis" (net)—and the diminutive suffix "-eau" typically produces masculine nouns in French. The masculine gender was inherited from its Latin roots and reinforced by the productivity of the "-eau" suffix, which predominantly creates masculine nouns.
