Summary

Cello Group Limited

New Zealand · AI-generated

isp legacy

CELLO-AS-AP belongs to Cello Group Limited, a New Zealand network provider based in Wellington that sells connectivity to businesses rather than households.

What it's used for

  • Enterprise connectivity across New Zealand: business internet access, WAN and LAN services, and managed network security for corporate and public-sector customers.
  • The address space serves business sites, so it reads as corporate rather than eyeball or hosting space.

Notable

  • Cello runs a business-only network with offices in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, and Dunedin, and is New Zealand owned.
  • Despite the low number, this is a modern holder. APNIC records the current registration in 2020, and the company itself was incorporated in late 2019, so there is no early-internet pedigree behind AS4049's present owner.

Interesting

  • New Zealand's small market and long, thin geography make national business networks unusually dependent on a handful of domestic fibre routes.

Reputation

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.
