Residential ARIN Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
Gorge Networks LLC (Blue Mountain Networks)
isp legacy
GORGE-NETWORKS is Gorge Networks LLC, the internet provider for the Columbia River Gorge — Hood River, Wasco and Sherman counties in Oregon. In 2020 Gorge Networks merged with Hermiston-based Eastern Oregon Telecom to form Blue Mountain Networks, and this AS now carries the combined operator's space.
What it's used for
Rural fixed broadband. RIS sees 8 IPv4 prefixes / ~15,104 addresses, 1 IPv6 prefix (2606:b180::/32), and 15 observed neighbours — a small eyeball ISP that multihomes and peers modestly, not a carrier. Reverse DNS names the access technology directly: static-broadband-16-5.gorge.net, pppbroadband24-5.gorge.net, static-routed.176-5.gorge.net. PPP and static-broadband pools with a smattering of routed customer blocks is the signature of a wireless/DSL/fibre access network serving homes and small businesses across a dispersed rural service area.
Notable
The prefix registrants look scattered at first glance — GORGE-NET-BLK1, GNBLCK-3, EOT-1, EOT-DYNAMIC, BLMSURELINE2018, BLMSURELINEV4 — which is the pattern that usually signals an IP-leasing operation. It is not one here. EOT is Eastern Oregon Telecom and BLM is Blue Mountain Networks: every registrant is a member of the same merged corporate group, and the space wears matching first-party rDNS (gorge.net on the Gorge blocks, eotnet.net on the EOT blocks, where an acquired network kept its original naming). Self-registered space plus first-party rDNS means a real operator, however untidy the inventory looks.
Interesting
The eotnet.net PTRs are a fossil of the merger: acquired networks routinely keep their old reverse-DNS zone long after the brand disappears.

Classification and threat
Residential Fixed-line consumer ISP. Addresses here are homes.
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: 432 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
