AS1010 WHT-ASN-01 - Walnut Hill Communications
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Walnut Hill Communications
enterprise legacy
The network of Walnut Hill Communications (Walnut Hill Telephone Company), a rural telephone and internet provider in Lewisville, Arkansas, operating under the handle WHT-ASN-01.
What it's used for
- Local phone, high-speed internet, and fixed-wireless service across a handful of exchanges in the southwest corner of Arkansas.
Notable
- The low AS number is misleading. ARIN reassigned AS1010 to Walnut Hill in 2022, so this is a modern small-carrier allocation, not an early-internet one.
- The telephone company itself is long established, but its presence on this particular ASN is recent.

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-11-01, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
Spamhaus DROP
Not on ASN-DROP The network as a whole is not listed.
No DROP prefixes None of its announced space is on the DROP prefix list.
Spamhaus DROP ("Don't Route Or Peer") lists space and networks run by, or hijacked for, spam and cybercrime operations: 447 networks and 1,843 prefixes, as published 2026-11-02. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.
FBI IC3
No IC3 indicators Nothing from the FBI IC3 feed.
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
