Unclassified AFRINIC NSP
Summary
Echotel International Kenya
isp residential kenya telecom
AFOL-KE-AS is operated by Echotel International Kenya Limited.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential and business access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
afol-41-207-71-255.infinet.co.keandEchotel-194-9-82-255.echokenya.net. - The AS announces 8,704 IPv4 addresses across 5 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining 10 observed neighbours; this ratio of address volume to peering partners indicates an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- All registrants for the announced prefixes are listed as Echotel International Kenya Limited, matching the AS holder and confirming consistent ownership of the inventory.
- The address inventory consists of a large block in the 41.207.0.0/16 range and a smaller block in 194.9.0.0/16, with the 41.207 space subdivided into four distinct prefixes.

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 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. 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.
