mobile telecom isp
A mobile operator with five hundred and twelve addresses, and an abuse contact naming the group that bought it.
What it's used for
- A mobile operator's network. Two IPv4 prefixes announced from Spain, no IPv6, five hundred and twelve addresses, through two observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- The two blocks disagree about naming. One is a country code, the brand, and a full date; the other is the brand and the word for a network, with no country code and no date at all.
- Both are registered to the operator under its full legal name, and both list the same abuse contact, whose label runs the word for abuse straight into a different group's brand with no space or separator.
- That group name appears nowhere else in the record, so the only sign of the parent is in the contact for complaints.
- The AS handle is the brand alone, without the letters for an autonomous system that almost every neighbouring record appends.
- Five hundred and twelve addresses is a small holding for a mobile operator, and both blocks are the smallest routable size.
- Six addresses were queried for reverse DNS and none returned a name.
Interesting
- Handset traffic does not need public addresses, so a mobile operator's registry footprint says nothing about how many customers it has. These two blocks are the network's public face, not its subscribers.
- The abuse contact is the field that gets updated first after an acquisition, because complaints have to reach somebody who still exists. Everything else can wait, and does.

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 1,773 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.
