Summary

Farmers Telecommunications Cooperative

United States of America · AI-generated

residential cooperative rural fiber

FARMERS-TELECOMMUNICATIONS-COOPERATIVE-INC is held by Farmers Telecommunications Cooperative, Inc.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and business access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as 64-178-237.dsl.farmerstel.com and 74-127-70.dsl.farmerstel.com, alongside netnames like NNS-FTC and NRTC-BLK-3.
  • With 35,072 IPv4 addresses announced across 44 prefixes and only 4 observed neighbours, the ratio indicates an access network serving end-users rather than a transit provider.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs for rural communities in North Alabama, utilizing fiber and DSL technologies for internet, telephone, and security services.

Notable

  • Registrants include Farmers Telecommunications Cooperative, NRTC, and NeoNova Network Services, LLC, with netnames reflecting both the cooperative's own infrastructure and leased or partner space.
  • The address inventory is finely subdivided into numerous /22, /23, and /24 blocks, consistent with site-by-site segmentation for a regional utility provider.

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 1,781 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
