isp rural access business

NORTHWEST-MINNESOTA-SPECIAL-ACCESS-LLC is operated by Northwest Minnesota Special Access, LLC.

What it's used for

  • The AS announces 4096 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, with 8 observed neighbours, indicating a regional access provider rather than a transit hub.

Notable

  • All registrants for the announced prefixes are listed as Northwest Minnesota Special Access, LLC, matching the AS holder.

Reputation

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: 448 networks and 1,851 prefixes, as published 2026-10-29. 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.
