Summary
SYNLINQ
hosting business germany
SYNLINQ is operated by SYNLINQ, a German hosting and network services provider.
What it's used for
- The address space carries hosting infrastructure, evidenced by netnames such as
DE-LIVING-BOTSandDE-MOS-IPS, and reverse DNS entries likefamesystems.de,rdns.1nic.de, andmc-host24.de. - With 30,464 IPv4 addresses and 125 observed neighbours, the ratio indicates a hosting or transit provider role rather than a large residential access network.
- Traffic from this AS consists of web servers, API endpoints, and hosted client applications, consistent with SYNLINQ's business as a hosting and network operator.
Notable
- Registrants include Mo's Operations GmbH, 1nic GmbH, Sascha Gericke trading as Gericke KG, Rene Roeth trading as ROETH & BECK GbR, intercolo GmbH, and Cogent Communications, LLC, alongside the primary holder Oliver Horscht trading as SYNLINQ.
- The inventory includes a Cogent Communications prefix (
COGENT-154-43-16), suggesting leased or historical address space. - The address inventory is finely subdivided into numerous /22 and /23 blocks, typical of a hosting provider managing multiple customer or service segments.

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: 436 networks and 1,771 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
