Summary
Networktown
isp residential germany nsp
NETWORKTOWN-AS is operated by Networktown, a German network service provider.
What it's used for
- The address space carries static residential or business connections, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
static-217-115-7-255.inaddr.netsign.netandstatic-31-220-139-255.inaddr.netsign.net. - The AS announces 7168 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining 17 observed neighbours. This ratio of address space to peering partners suggests a regional access or last-mile provider rather than a large transit backbone.
Notable
- All registrants for the announced prefixes (
217.115.0.0/20,31.220.136.0/21,193.34.24.0/22) are listed as Networktown Guardian, Alexej Senderkin, and Networktown Abuse Contact, aligning perfectly with the AS holder. - The address inventory consists of three distinct IPv4 blocks and one IPv6 block, all located in Germany, indicating a focused domestic footprint.

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 1,772 prefixes, as published 2026-10-15. 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.
