Summary
SkyBest Communications
residential dsl isp us
The AS handle SKYBEST is held by SkyBest Communications INC.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
69-36-215-255.static.dsl.skybest.comand8-40-59-254.dynamic.skybest.com. - The network announces 24,576 IPv4 addresses across 11 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining only 5 observed neighbours, a ratio indicative of an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All registrants for the announced prefixes are listed as SkyBest Communications INC., consistent with the AS holder.
- The inventory includes legacy prefixes with netnames like
LVLT-SKYBE-8-40-48, suggesting historical allocation or acquisition from Level 3 Communications. - The address inventory is subdivided into multiple blocks, including a /19 and several /20s and /21s, reflecting a segmented corporate estate.

Internet exchanges
No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-20, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-21. 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.
