Summary
Walnut Communications
residential isp dsl business
WTC-40-AS is operated by Walnut Communications.
What it's used for
- The address space carries residential and business access traffic, evidenced by reverse DNS entries such as
wlnt-03-064.dsl.netins.netand67-55-231-190.metc.net. - The AS announces 4096 IPv4 addresses across 15 prefixes with only 2 observed neighbours, a ratio characteristic of an access network rather than a transit provider.
- Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs and local business endpoints, as Walnut Communications provides fiber optic internet, managed Wi-Fi, phone, and television services.
Notable
- Registrants include Walnut Telephone Co., Inc., Marne & Elk Horn Telephone Co., and Aureon Network Services, indicating a consolidated regional footprint.
- The inventory includes a prefix registered to Walnut High School (
WALNUT), suggesting the network also serves local institutional infrastructure. - The address inventory is fragmented across multiple /24 blocks and one /23, reflecting historical acquisitions or separate service areas.

No exchange port on file. Many exchanges publish no participant list, so this is not proof of absence.
Exchange presence is recorded rather than inferred: the directory collected by Packet Clearing House (https://www.pch.net/ixp/data) on 2026-11-05, licensed CC BY-NC-SA 3.0. Transit is inferred from observed BGP paths, never declared by either party.

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 1,854 prefixes, as published 2026-11-06. 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.
