Summary

Farmers Mutual Telephone Company

United States of America · AI-generated

residential cooperative telecom rural

FMTCAS is the autonomous system for Farmers Mutual Telephone Company, a rural cooperative telecommunications provider.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and business access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as dialup-208-98-132-0.fmtc.com, dsl-208-98-135-255.fmtc.com, and static-208-98-144-128.fmtc.com.
  • The AS announces 6144 IPv4 addresses across 4 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining only 2 observed routing neighbours, a ratio indicative of an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • All four announced IPv4 prefixes are registered to Farmers Mutual Telephone Company, with netnames including COM-00605-208-98-128-0-20 and FMT-16, confirming the registrants align with the AS holder.
  • The address inventory consists of a large /20 block and three smaller /22 and /23 blocks, all within the 208.98.0.0/16 and 72.51.0.0/16 ranges, reflecting a consolidated corporate estate for a local service provider.

Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-10-16, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-17. 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.
