Autonomous system
AS4802 ASN-IINET iiNet Limited
Residential APNIC
Summary
iiNet
isp legacy
Autonomous System 4802 (ASN-IINET) belongs to iiNet, one of Australia's best-known consumer internet service providers, founded in Perth.
What it's used for
- Retail broadband for Australian homes and small businesses: DSL, NBN fibre and associated services such as mail, hosting and VoIP.
Notable
- A genuine eyeball network — most of this address space terminates on residential customer connections, so traffic from it is end users rather than servers.
- iiNet grew from a small Perth dial-up outfit into one of the country's largest ISPs, absorbing several other providers along the way, before being acquired by TPG Telecom in 2015. It has continued to operate as a retail brand within that group.
Interesting
- iiNet is remembered well beyond networking circles for successfully defending the landmark Australian copyright case brought against it by film studios over subscriber file sharing, decided in its favour by the High Court of Australia.

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: 442 networks and 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-17. 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.
