Summary
Mobile Technology Ventures Inc
hosting enterprise legacy
MTVI-AS is Mobile Technology Ventures Inc, a small Florida company. Despite the name it shows no sign of being a mobile operator; the routing looks like a modest hosting and managed-services network.
What it's used for
RIS shows 2 announced IPv4 prefixes, 130.51.196.0/24 and 130.51.197.0/24, together 512 addresses, no IPv6, and 2 observed neighbours. Those two /24s are the halves of a single 130.51.196.0/23 that ARIN records as a direct allocation to Mobile Technology Ventures itself, with the company's own Florida address and contact on the record.
That registration detail matters more than the size. Scattered /24s under a low-numbered ASN can be the signature of an address broker, prefixes registered to unrelated third parties and routed by whoever is renting them. Here the opposite is true: the space is self-registered, contiguous, and announced by its own holder, which is what a real, if small, operator looks like.
The one reverse DNS result on the sample, mail.jsoft-software.com, is a mail host on a domain unrelated to the AS holder, which is the ordinary pattern for a small provider running services for a handful of customers.
Notable
The name is a trap worth flagging. "Mobile Technology Ventures" reads like a wireless carrier, and nothing in the routing supports that reading: 512 addresses and two upstreams cannot serve a subscriber base of handsets. Never infer a network's role from a promising-sounding handle.
Interesting
The ASN is a low legacy number but the company behind it is recent, and the address block was allocated to it in 2020. Number and holder come from completely different eras, a reminder that a low ASN says nothing about how long its current owner has held it.

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: 442 networks and 1,781 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
