Summary

Midco

United States of America · AI-generated

cable residential business regional

MIDCO-NET-INV-MR is operated by Midco.

What it's used for

  • The space carries residential and business connectivity, evidenced by the netname MIDCO-1 and the operator's provision of triple-play services including cable television, internet, and phone.
  • The AS announces 256 IPv4 addresses across 1 prefix and 3 IPv6 prefixes, with only 1 observed neighbour, indicating a regional access network rather than a transit provider.
  • Traffic from this AS consists of subscriber eyeballs and business connectivity endpoints for Midco's fiber-based communication networks in the United States.

Notable

  • The registrant Midcontinent Communications matches the announcer, confirming consistent ownership of the address space.
  • Midcontinent Communications rebranded as Midco in 2016, following its acquisition of Charter Communications' Minnesota operations in 2009.
  • The address inventory is compact, consisting of a single /24 IPv4 block and three /44 IPv6 prefixes, typical for a regional cable operator with a focused 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: 436 networks and 1,769 prefixes, as published 2026-10-13. 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.
