Summary

VELOCITY-COMMUNICATIONS is operated by Velocity Communications Inc.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential broadband traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
cust-23-153-168-64.velocitywa.netandcust-198-252-222-64.velocitywa.net. - The AS announces 512 IPv4 addresses across 2 prefixes and 1 IPv6 prefix, with only 2 observed neighbours, indicating a regional access network rather than a transit provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs for cable and DSL broadband services in the Pacific Northwest.
Notable
- Registrants for both announced prefixes match the announcer, with netname
VELOCITY-COMMUNICATIONSand registrantVelocity Communications Inc.. - The inventory is small and focused, consisting of two /24 blocks and a single /32 IPv6 prefix, consistent with a local ISP footprint.

Reputation
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: 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.
