Summary

Orange Equatorial Guinea

South Africa · AI-generated

mobile telecom africa orange

GETESA is the AS handle for Orange Equatorial Guinea, the primary telecommunications operator in Equatorial Guinea.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries mobile and fixed-line telecommunications services, evidenced by the registrant GETESA (Orange Equatorial Guinea) and netnames such as ORG-OGQ1-AFRINIC and NETGQ.
  • The AS announces 3328 IPv4 addresses across 4 prefixes with only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio that indicates an access or eyeball network rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants include GETESA (Orange Equatorial Guinea) for the largest block and Local Internet Registry Orange fr.telecom for the remaining prefixes, reflecting the operator's integration into the Orange group.
  • GETESA was originally the state-owned Guinea Ecuatorial de Telecomunicaciones S.A. and was rebranded as Orange Equatorial Guinea following the acquisition by the French telecommunications group Orange.
  • The inventory consists of four IPv4 prefixes with no IPv6 prefixes announced, and the country of announced blocks is listed as South Africa.

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 1,778 prefixes, as published 2026-10-20. 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.
