Summary

Wheat State Technologies

United States of America · AI-generated

residential rural telecom fiber

WST-INET is operated by Wheat State Technologies, a rural telecommunications provider in Kansas.

What it's used for

  • The address space carries residential and business customer traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries pointing to wheatstate.com and netnames such as WST-IPV4 and WHEAT-ST.
  • The AS announces 5,632 IPv4 addresses across 6 prefixes with only 1 observed neighbour, a ratio characteristic of an access network serving local subscribers rather than a transit provider.
  • Traffic consists of broadband internet and voice services for homes and businesses in rural Kansas, consistent with the operator's provision of fiber and telephone services.

Notable

  • Registrants align with the announcer, including Wheat State Telephone, Inc., Wheat-State-Tel, and Kansas Fiber Network, LLC.
  • The address inventory is subdivided into distinct blocks, with some prefixes registered to Kansas Fiber Network, LLC, reflecting the company's fiber infrastructure operations.

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: 454 networks and 1,847 prefixes, as published 2026-11-11. 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.
