Summary
NuLink (WideOpenWest)
isp enterprise legacy
NULINK is held today by WideOpenWest Finance LLC (WOW!). NuLink was the cable and broadband operator serving Newnan, Georgia and surrounding communities; WOW! acquired it, and the AS number now announces WOW! southeastern cable space alongside the original NuLink blocks.
What it's used for
- Carrying a regional cable/broadband access network. RIS sees 16 IPv4 prefixes / 10,752 addresses and just 1 observed neighbour — the single-upstream shape of an access network sitting downstream of its parent's backbone, not of a peering or transit operator.
- The reverse DNS is what identifies the customer base:
nulinkdigital.comandnumail.orgare the operator's own service domains, whilepc4.cityofnewnan.org,www.newnanmall.comandwww.outmed.comare local Newnan-area subscribers. That mix — operator infrastructure plus small local businesses and a municipality — is exactly what a community cable ISP's address space looks like.
Notable
- Every prefix registers to a WideOpenWest entity:
NUNET(WideOpenWest Finance LLC),GA-NWNN(WIDEOPENWEST) andSC-CHAR(WideOpenWest). The regional handles are geographic labels for the operator's own market footprints (Newnan GA, Charleston SC), not third-party registrants — so this is one operator's inventory, not brokered space. - No IPv6 is announced on this AS.
Interesting
- The handle preserves a brand that no longer exists commercially. The AS number kept the NuLink name through the acquisition while the org record moved to WideOpenWest, which is why registry name and routing owner disagree here.

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 1,846 prefixes, as published 2026-11-11. 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.
