Unclassified APNIC Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
Wintek Corporation
isp legacy
WINTEK-CORP is Wintek Corporation, a locally-owned fibre ISP based at 427 N 6th Street in Lafayette, Indiana, with a second office in Linden. It sells home and apartment fibre internet alongside a business division, and has partnered with Tippecanoe County to extend fibre to rural addresses.
What it's used for
Regional access network. RIS observes 7 IPv4 prefixes totalling 37,120 addresses and 2 IPv6 prefixes (2604:d7c0::/32 and 2605:ec80::/32). The v4 space is a mix of sizes — a /18, two /19s, a /21, two /22s and a /24 — which is what an ISP's address holdings look like after years of incremental growth rather than one clean allocation.
Reverse DNS confirms both the operator and the use. laf427-prod-r1-lo1.wintek.com is a router loopback whose name encodes the company's own Lafayette street number, and 69-94-52-5.wintek.com is the generic per-address pattern an ISP hands to subscriber connections. Eyeball space, first-party naming.
23 observed BGP neighbours is the right number for a regional ISP: enough to show real peering and multiple upstreams, nowhere near the hundreds-to-thousands a wholesale transit carrier accumulates.
Notable
Five of the seven prefixes are registered to Wintek's own ARIN objects (WINTEK-NET, WINTEK-NET2 and per-block records). Two are not: 198.252.196.0/22 sits under NETBLK-ARNETT and 205.233.8.0/22 under PRF-DATASTATION.
That third-party registration is worth naming, because scattered blocks registered to other parties is the classic IP-leasing tell. It is not that here: the bulk of the space is self-registered, the rDNS is first-party wintek.com, and the holder is a findable, physically-located ISP. Two outside-registered /22s announced by an established regional carrier read as customer assignments or absorbed blocks — the ordinary residue of an ISP that has been operating in one county for a long time.

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: 453 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-05. 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.
