Summary

418,560 addresses and 139 announcements, reached through exactly two neighbours.
What it's used for
- A Turkish digital television platform that also provides broadband internet. 418,560 addresses across 139 IPv4 prefixes, one IPv6 prefix, and two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Most sampled blocks carry the identical netname
TR-DSMART-20080804. - Two others are
TR-DSMART-20000427andTR-DSMART-20110427. - All are registered to a network services contact alongside the parent company's full legal name.
- The registry lookup for
94.120.192.0/18failed, so nothing here describes that block's record. - Eighteen addresses were sampled and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Two neighbours carrying 418,560 addresses is the most lopsided ratio in this range. Everything reaching nearly half a million subscribers arrives through two upstream relationships, which concentrates an entire consumer broadband base behind a pair of dependencies.
- One netname repeated across most blocks means a single 2008 allocation that grew by acquiring adjacent space under the same record. Six /18s sharing one registration date is a very large amount of address space obtained at once, in the last years when that was still possible.
- Two of the dates are the same day of the same month eleven years apart, which is coincidence worth noting only because it is the kind of pattern that looks meaningful and is not.
- A television company holding a consumer ISP's worth of address space is the usual direction of convergence: the platform that already reaches homes adds internet, rather than an ISP adding television. The netnames name the broadcast entity, not the internet service.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-13, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 436 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
