Summary
Omantel
mobile residential isp oman
OMANTEL-NAP-AS is operated by Oman Telecommunications Company (S.A.O.G), commonly known as Omantel.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential and mobile access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries like
dynamic-dsl-ip.omantel.net.omand netnames such asOMANMOBILE-3G. - With 485,376 IPv4 addresses announced across 86 prefixes and only 12 observed neighbours, the high address-to-neighbour ratio indicates a large access network serving end-users rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- Registrants are consistent with the announcer, listing "Oman Telecommunications Company (S.A.O.G)" and "Omantel Admin-2019" for the majority of prefixes.
- The inventory is a mix of legacy fixed-line blocks (netnames like
OM-GTO-OMAN) and newer mobile allocations (netnames likeOMANMOBILE-3G), reflecting the operator's evolution from a fixed-line utility to a full-service mobile and broadband provider.

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 2026-10-11, 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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
