Summary
Collins Communications Inc
isp legacy
AS-COLLINS is Collins Communications, Inc., a broadband and technology provider serving north-eastern Wyoming out of Gillette. It grew out of a two-way radio business and today sells fixed wireless, fibre and business networking across a rural service area.
What it's used for
Regional internet access for homes and businesses. The reverse DNS is uniform, first-party and complete across the sample: every address probed resolves under ccihq.net — 75-127-17-5.ccihq.net, 162-252-131-133.ccihq.net, and so on — the operator's own domain, in the sequential per-address pattern a provider uses for pools it assigns to customers. ccihq.net is Collins' working domain (its support address sits there), so registrant, holder and rDNS all point at the same company.
Notable
RIS sees 20 announced v4 prefixes carrying 5,120 addresses, no IPv6, and one observed BGP neighbour. That combination is the whole story: twenty prefixes sounds like a lot until you notice they are all /24s, they total only a /19 and change of address space, and there is a single upstream behind them. One transit provider is a customer edge, not a carrier — a wholesale network would peer with hundreds. The blocks come from two ranges, 75.127.16.0–75.127.31.0 and 162.252.128.0–162.252.131.0, all registered to COLLINS-BLOCK1-20 with org COLLINS COMMUNICATIONS INC.
Interesting
The space is announced as sixteen consecutive /24s rather than as the /20 they would aggregate into. De-aggregating a contiguous block that far is usually a legacy of how the space was assigned and routed over time; it costs the operator nothing locally, and it is a common shape on small ISPs that grew their allocations one /24 at a time.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-11-12, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 455 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-11-13. 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.
