AS32990 ECE-FIBER - East Central Energy
Unclassified ARIN Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
East Central Energy
utility fiber cooperative residential
The AS handle ECE-FIBER is held by East Central Energy, a member-owned electric cooperative serving east central Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin.
What it's used for
- The address space carries the utility's own fiber-to-the-home internet service, as indicated by the AS name
ECE-FIBERand the registrant netnames such asECE-FIBER-173-250-128-0-19andECE-FIBER-159-48-224-0-19. - The network announces 18,432 IPv4 addresses across 8 prefixes and 5 IPv6 prefixes, while maintaining only 2 observed routing neighbours. This high address-to-neighbour ratio is characteristic of an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All RDAP registrants for the announced prefixes are listed as East Central Energy, fully agreeing with the AS holder.
- The address inventory is finely subdivided, with multiple smaller prefixes (e.g., /22, /23, /24) carved out of the larger 159.48.224.0/20 block, suggesting site-by-site or regional segmentation of the internal corporate and customer estate.

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 2026-11-04, 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: 452 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-05. 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.
