Hosting APNIC
Summary
BroadbandONE
isp hosting telecom
Four separate addresses all answer with the same name, and that name is the abbreviation for the record type itself.
What it's used for
- A broadband and hosting provider. 83,712 addresses across seven IPv4 prefixes, the IPv6 block
2001:5b8::/32, and one observed BGP neighbour.
Notable
216.242.0.0/16is netnameWEBUNITEDand66.115.0.0/18isWEBUNITED-NET2, a brand the registrant name does not contain.- Four blocks are netname
HOST-BROADBANDONE, and64.139.220.0/24is netnameCCCL-46, registered to a two-character company name. - Four sampled addresses all answer as
ptr.host.net, the same string for each. - Others answer as
8315-ibe-cust.host.netandes01.ptree.bct.host.net.
Interesting
- A reverse record whose name is the abbreviation for reverse records is a placeholder that escaped into production. Somebody's template had the field name where the value should go, and four addresses now share a hostname that identifies nothing.
- Because these names are not unique, anything that treats a reverse lookup as an identity check will group unrelated addresses together, which is the practical cost of a placeholder nobody noticed.
- The older brand surviving in two netnames while the current one appears in four is the company's history in one field: a /16 and a /18 from the first name, smaller blocks from the second.

Classification and threat
Hosting Datacenter or cloud provider. Addresses are servers, not people.
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 1,773 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.
