Summary
HKT Limited (Netvigator)
isp legacy
HKTIMS-AP is HKT Limited's Hong Kong access network — the internet and multimedia services arm behind the Netvigator broadband brand. HKT is Hong Kong's incumbent telecommunications operator, majority-owned by PCCW.
What it's used for
- Consumer and business fixed broadband across Hong Kong, sold under the Netvigator name (originally dial-up and DSL, now fibre).
Notable
- This is Hong Kong's largest eyeball network: on the order of 1.8 million IPv4 addresses assigned to end users, which is why so much Hong Kong residential traffic originates here.
- Distinct from PCCW Global, the group's international transit carrier, which runs on its own ASN. AS4760 is the domestic access network; it is not where PCCW's wholesale transit lives.
Interesting
- Netvigator is one of the oldest surviving consumer ISP brands in Asia, dating from Hong Kong Telecom's dial-up era and carried through the PCCW takeover and the later HKT Trust restructuring.

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
2 IC3 indicators addresses in this network appear in FBI IC3 cybersecurity advisories.
| Prefix | Advisory | Published |
|---|---|---|
119.237.159.189 | China-Linked Hacking Group QTFY Targets Military and Critical Infrastructure with Malicious Distributed Systems | 2026-08-26 |
58.152.47.231 | China-Linked Hacking Group QTFY Targets Military and Critical Infrastructure with Malicious Distributed Systems | 2026-08-26 |
IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
