AS12484 BORISLTD-AS
Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Boris Ltd
isp residential broadband
Two /21s of DSL subscribers answering on a domain that is not the company's name.
What it's used for
- Residential internet access. 4,096 addresses in two
/21s with one observed BGP neighbour and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- Both sampled addresses answered as
pppoe-176-107-205-254.lekks.ruandpppoe-178-217-125-254.lekks.ru, on a domain unrelated to the registered company name. - The two blocks carry netnames
BORISLTD-NETWORKandASBORISLTD— the same name arranged two different ways. - One of them puts
ASin front, in a field that has nothing to do with autonomous systems. - First seen in routing data in April 2011.
Interesting
pppoein the host name is the access method showing through: sessions established over Ethernet the way they once were over telephone lines, with a username and password per subscriber. It is how most DSL and much fibre still authenticates, decades after the dial-up it was modelled on stopped existing.- The trading name in DNS differing from the registered name is the ordinary gap between what a company is called on its invoices and what customers see. The registry records the entity; the reverse zone records the brand.
- One upstream for four thousand subscriber addresses is a small ISP with a single point of failure, which is a business decision rather than an oversight when the alternative costs money every month.

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: 442 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-24. 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.
