Unclassified ARIN
Summary
Algona Municipal Utilities
isp government telecom infrastructure
A city utility selling broadband, with reverse names under a marketing domain.
What it's used for
- A municipal utility's broadband network. Three IPv4 prefixes announced from the United States, no IPv6, and one observed BGP neighbour.
Notable
- The three routes tile one aligned range of sixteen consecutive blocks, so a single announcement could carry all of them.
- All three share one netname, the utility's four letter abbreviation with an abbreviation for network block and a zero padded counter.
- The two answering addresses give the last two octets, then a label combining the word net with the utility's initials, then a marketing domain that names neither the city nor the utility.
- Routing history for this number begins in 2007.
- Nine addresses were queried for reverse DNS and two returned a name.
Interesting
- Municipal utilities that already own poles and conduit are well placed to sell broadband, and this is what that looks like from outside: a city department with four thousand addresses and a consumer brand in its DNS.
- Splitting the range into three routes gains nothing here, since all three leave by the same single upstream. It is fragmentation without a purpose.
- One upstream for a city's broadband service is the exposure worth noting. If that provider fails, the town is offline, and no amount of routing inside the network changes that.

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 2026-11-02. 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.
