Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Rock Solid Internet & Telephone
isp telecom business
One allocation, one netname, and three announcements that step down by half each time.
What it's used for
- A regional internet and telephone provider's network. 1,792 addresses across three IPv4 prefixes, with one observed BGP neighbour and no IPv6 announced.
Notable
- The blocks run
104.219.136.0/22,104.219.140.0/23and104.219.142.0/24, each half the size of the one before and starting where the last one ended. - All three carry the netname
NETBLK1-RSIand the same registrant. - Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
- The AS first appeared in routing on
2000-08-18.
Interesting
- Those three pieces are one span of addresses described exactly. The span is not a power of two, so covering it takes a large block, then half of the remainder, then half of what is left. Every network that announces a range rather than an allocation produces this staircase.
- The registry sees one record and the routing table sees three, which is the whole cost of the arrangement and it falls on everyone else.
- The netname numbers itself first, so this is the provider's first and, so far, only allocation. Everything the company serves comes out of these 1,792 addresses.
- One upstream for a provider selling both internet and telephone service is the thin part. Voice traffic is the least forgiving thing to carry over a single path.

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: 447 networks and 1,843 prefixes, as published 2026-11-01. 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.
