Residential RIPE Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
Suomi Communications
isp hosting business
Seven blocks named after a predecessor, four belonging to customers, and one whose netname has lost its date.
What it's used for
- A provider's network. Seventeen prefixes announced from Finland, three of them IPv6, thirty-three thousand seven hundred and ninety-two addresses, through forty-four observed BGP neighbours.
Notable
- Seven blocks share a scheme: a country code, a predecessor's brand, and a full date, with dates spanning eleven years. One of the seven has the brand and no date, so the pattern has a gap in it.
- One block is labelled with the current brand, the word for customer, and a single letter, suggesting a series of customer blocks of which only this one is visible.
- Four blocks are registered to other companies entirely: a software firm, a marketing agency, an industrial group whose contact is a national carrier's hostmaster, and a hosting company.
- Eight of eighteen queried addresses answered. Seven are the four numbers of the address with hyphens, the word for customer, and the current brand's domain.
- The eighth is different in kind: three letters and a number on a domain named after a district of a city, which belongs to neither the provider nor any registrant.
Interesting
- Carrying customer blocks under the customers' own registrations, while giving them hostnames under the provider's domain, splits the record in two. The registry says who owns the addresses; DNS says who routes them.
- A netname that lost its date is the seam where a naming convention was adopted. Everything after it follows the rule and one block predates it.

Classification and threat
Residential Fixed-line consumer ISP. Addresses here are homes.
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: 436 networks and 1,771 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.
