isp residential cable regional

AS52944 is operated by Megalink Telecomunicacoes LTDA ME.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and business access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS records such as 177-38-58-0.host.megalinkcorp.com.br and 201-150-113-0.host.megalinkcorp.com.br.
  • The AS announces 4096 IPv4 addresses across 3 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, while maintaining 28 observed neighbours; this ratio indicates a regional access provider rather than a transit carrier.
  • Traffic consists of subscriber eyeballs for cable and DSL services in the Brazilian market, consistent with the operator's classification as a regional ISP.

Notable

  • All registrants for the announced prefixes (177.38.56.0/21, 168.205.152.0/22, and 201.150.112.0/22) match the AS holder, Megalink Telecomunicacoes LTDA ME.
  • The address inventory is composed of three distinct IPv4 blocks and one IPv6 /32, all located in Brazil.

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: 446 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
