residential telecom iowa fiber

The AS handle FIBERNET-NETWORK-OPERATIONS-CENTER is held by FiberNet Communications L.C.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and business access traffic for multiple Iowa telecommunications cooperatives, evidenced by netnames like NET-ECL-01, ECL-224, WESTEL-NET-198136, and AUREON-BLK7.
  • With 13,056 IPv4 addresses announced across 35 prefixes and only 8 observed neighbours, the ratio indicates an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants include Estherville Communications LLC, River Valley Telecommunications Coop, Westel Systems, West Iowa Telephone, Aureon Network Services, and Ringsted Telephone, suggesting FiberNet aggregates or manages IP space for these regional entities.
  • The inventory consists of a mix of /22, /23, and /24 blocks, with the largest being 23.247.204.0/22 and 64.29.184.0/22.
  • Reverse DNS entries point to domains such as esthervillecommunications.net and westelsystems.com, confirming the multi-tenant nature of the address space.

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: 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.
