Unclassified APNIC
Summary
Forge Innovation Ltd
isp cable dsl nigerian
The AS handle FIL-NET is held by Forge Innovation Ltd.
What it's used for
- The space carries a single IPv6 prefix,
2a03:5840:15c::/48, with no announced IPv4 addresses. - The inventory consists of 1 IPv6 prefix against 1 observed neighbour, indicating a small-scale access or edge network rather than a transit provider.
- As a Cable/DSL/ISP, the traffic from this AS consists of subscriber internet access for residential or small business customers in Nigeria.
Notable
- The registry holder is listed as FIL-NET EFEDUE JOSHUA NEYIN, while secondary sources identify the operator as Forge Innovation Ltd, suggesting a personal or small-business registration style.
- The address inventory is minimal, containing only one IPv6 /48 block and no IPv4 space, which is typical for a new or small Nigerian ISP relying on IPv6 for growth.

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: 451 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-04. 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.
