Summary
K & M Telephone Company
residential telecom rural
KMTEL-NET is operated by K & M Telephone Company, Inc.
What it's used for
- The address space carries telecommunications services for rural Nebraska communities, specifically Amelia, Chambers, and Inman, as indicated by the operator's service area.
- The AS announces 768 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes with 1 observed neighbour, a ratio characteristic of a small access network serving local subscribers rather than a transit provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of residential and small business voice and data connections for approximately 397 people and 229 households in the served towns.
Notable
- Registrants for both announced prefixes,
KMTEL-BLOCK1andKMTEL-BLOCK2, match the AS holder, K & M Telephone Company, Inc. - The address inventory is compact, consisting of one /23 and one /24 block, reflecting the limited scale of the local service area.

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: 453 networks and 1,846 prefixes, as published 2026-11-12. 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.
