Summary
Shaw Communications
isp residential eyeball cable fiber
Shaw Communications (SHAW) is a large western-Canadian cable and fibre broadband provider, now part of Rogers Communications but still operating under its own ASN.
What it's used for
- Home internet across western Canada (British Columbia, Alberta and neighbouring provinces): cable (DOCSIS) and fibre for households.
Notable
- An "eyeball" network: addresses here are western-Canadian home connections, not servers.
- Shaw was the incumbent cable operator across the west; Rogers acquired it in 2023, and this ASN was retained as the network was folded into the combined company.
Interesting
- The Rogers-Shaw merger reshaped Canadian telecom by uniting the country's two largest cable footprints under one owner.

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: 431 networks and 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. 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.
