Summary

Movitel

Mozambique · AI-generated

mobile residential isp africa

MOVITEL is operated by Movitel, SA, a mobile telecommunications provider in Mozambique.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential broadband traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as dynamic-adsl.movitel.co.mz across the sampled prefixes.
  • The AS announces 131072 IPv4 addresses across 41 prefixes, with 47 observed neighbours. This ratio of address volume to peering partners is consistent with an access network serving end-users rather than a transit provider.

Notable

  • Registrants for the largest prefixes, including 197.219.0.0/17 and 197.219.192.0/18, are listed as Movitel, SA with the netname ORG-MS5-AFRINIC, aligning with the AS holder.
  • Movitel is a partnership between the Vietnamese company Viettel and Mozambique's SPI, having won a public tender in 2010 to operate as a mobile telecommunications provider.
  • The inventory consists of 41 IPv4 prefixes with no IPv6 prefixes announced, showing a purely IPv4 footprint for this AS.

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: 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.
