Every sampled address answers with exactly the same hostname.

What it's used for

  • A wireless internet provider's network. 256 IPv4 addresses in a single prefix alongside an IPv6 /36, with one observed BGP neighbour.

Notable

  • All three sampled addresses answer as dynamic.highspeed.lynxwifi.net, with no per-address label of any kind.
  • The IPv4 block is 23.153.112.0/24, carrying the netname LYNX-IPV4.
  • The IPv6 block is 2602:fd66::/36.
  • Three addresses were queried for reverse DNS and all three returned a name.

Interesting

  • Most providers stamp the address into the hostname so each one is distinct. This one returns a single constant string for the whole range, which says the addresses are handed out dynamically and the operator saw no reason to distinguish them. It also means reverse lookups here carry no information beyond the brand.
  • The IPv6 allocation dwarfs the IPv4 one: a /36 against 256 addresses. That is the modern pattern for a subscriber network, where every customer site gets a routed block of its own and the IPv4 side stays behind translation.
  • The netname marks its address family explicitly, which is the habit of an operator who expected a matching entry for the other one.
  • One upstream carries the whole subscriber base.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-24, 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: 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.
