Residential ARIN Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
XMission, L.C.
isp hosting legacy
The network of XMission, L.C., an independent internet service provider in Salt Lake City, Utah, founded in 1993 and registered under the handle XMISSION.
What it's used for
- Residential and business fibre internet, largely delivered over the municipal UTOPIA open-access network. Subscriber reverse DNS appears as
….utopia.xmission.net. - Web and email hosting, VPS cloud, and carrier-neutral colocation out of its downtown Salt Lake City facility, so a share of the address space fronts servers rather than end users.
Notable
- One of Utah's oldest ISPs and among the earliest UTOPIA service providers, partnering with the network from its 2005 launch.
- Holds a legacy
166.70.0.0/16alongside a spread of smaller blocks, the sort of address estate typical of a provider that has been operating since the mid-1990s. - Registered with ARIN in early 1996, an assignment consistent with the company's 1993 founding as a pioneering regional ISP.

Classification and threat
Residential Fixed-line consumer ISP. Addresses here are homes.
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 1,782 prefixes, as published 2026-10-16. 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.
