AS27738 Ecuadortelecom S.A.
Unclassified ARIN Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
Claro Ecuador
residential isp mobile cable
AS27738 is operated by Ecuadortelecom S.A., the entity known commercially as Claro Ecuador.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential and mobile customer traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
hfce-190-130-215-254.customer.claro.com.ecandhfce-201-183-8-0.customer.claro.com.ec. - The AS announces 221184 IPv4 addresses across 170 prefixes and 178 IPv6 prefixes, while maintaining only 2 observed neighbours, a ratio indicative of an access network serving end-users rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All registrants in the RDAP sample are listed as Ecuadortelecom S.A., matching the AS holder and confirming consistent ownership of the announced space.
- The operator is identified in secondary sources as Claro Ecuador, reflecting the rebranding of the former Ecuadortelecom brand under the Claro corporate umbrella.
- The inventory consists of large /19 blocks alongside numerous /20 and /21 subdivisions, typical of a national ISP managing distinct regional or service-specific segments.

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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
