Residential APNIC Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
Edge Connect
isp residential south-africa cable
The AS handle edgeconnect-legacy is held by Edge Connect (pty) Ltd.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential and access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
102-176-235-254.client.cd.net.zaanddbn-access-2.cd.net.za. - The network announces 7168 IPv4 addresses across 4 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining 118 observed neighbours. This ratio of moderate address space against a high neighbour count suggests a role focused on transit and peering for its access customers.
Notable
- The RDAP registrants for all announced IPv4 prefixes are consistently listed as Edge connect (pty) Ltd, matching the operator identity.
- The registry holder is listed as Webdev CC T/A Cybertek, which differs from the primary registrant name but aligns with the operator's historical or corporate structure.
- The inventory consists of four distinct IPv4 blocks, including a /20 and three /22s, all registered under the netname ORG-ECL7-AFRINIC.

Classification and threat
Residential Fixed-line consumer ISP. Addresses here are homes.
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: 443 networks and 1,779 prefixes, as published 2026-10-24. 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.
