Summary
Access Communications Co-operative
isp eyeball
Access Communications Co-operative — a member-owned telecom cooperative in Saskatchewan, Canada, providing internet, cable TV, and phone service across rural and small-town communities. It is a fixed ISP, including fixed-wireless broadband, rather than a cellular mobile carrier.
What it's used for
- Consumer and business internet (cable modem and fixed-wireless), TV, and phone across roughly 200+ Saskatchewan communities.
Notable
- A consumer "eyeball" network — addresses are residential and small-business home connections in Saskatchewan.
- A cooperative, 100% Saskatchewan-owned, focused on serving rural areas that larger carriers underserve.
Interesting
- Access expanded into rural fixed-wireless broadband after acquiring Little Loon Wireless, extending reach beyond its cable footprint.

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: 447 networks and 1,845 prefixes, as published 2026-10-31. 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.
