Residential AFRINIC
Summary
Spectranet
residential isp cable dsl
Spectranet is the AS handle for Spectranet Limited, a Nigerian broadband provider.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential and business broadband traffic, evidenced by the operator's provision of "Fast Broadband & WiFi Plans" and "unlimited data plans for home and business use."
- With 84,480 IPv4 addresses announced across 13 prefixes and only 9 observed neighbours, the high address-to-neighbour ratio indicates an access/eyeball network rather than a transit provider.
Notable
- Registrants for the largest prefixes (41.217.0.0/17, 154.118.0.0/18, 154.120.64.0/18, 197.242.96.0/19, 197.255.160.0/21) consistently list SPECTRANET LIMITED with the netname ORG-SL77-AFRINIC, aligning with the AS holder.
- The address inventory is finely subdivided into multiple /21, /22, and /23 blocks alongside larger /17 and /18 allocations, suggesting site-by-site or service-specific segmentation within the corporate estate.

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: 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.
