Summary
Vodafone Romania
isp mobile eyeball legacy
Vodafone Romania is one of the country's largest operators, and this AS carries both halves of it: the mobile network and the fixed-line business it bought.
What it's used for
- National mobile and fixed internet access. Just over a million IPv4 addresses across 190 announced prefixes, with 218 observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The registry shows two separate company histories under one AS. Blocks named
RO-MOBIFON-trace to Mobifon, which operated the Connex mobile network before it took the Vodafone name. Blocks namedRO-DNT-carry the registrant noteexUPC (VDF RO) LIR— the fixed-line and cable business acquired from UPC Romania, folded in and still labelled by where it came from. - The date-stamped netnames put the two lineages in different decades. The UPC-derived blocks are stamped from
RO-DNT-20040308andRO-DNT-20040407throughRO-DNT-20110408, while the Mobifon blocks are stampedRO-MOBIFON-20100531andRO-MOBIFON-20120517. - Three IPv6 prefixes, and one of them is enormous:
2a04:2400::/27, alongside two conventional/32allocations.
Interesting
- Acquisitions leave fingerprints in the routing registry long after they stop showing up anywhere else. A customer of Vodafone Romania on a cable line is using addresses whose registry record still says which company held them first, and the operator has no particular reason to rewrite it — the netname only has to be unique, not current.

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: 453 networks and 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-06. 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.
