Summary
HiWAAY Information Services
isp legacy
HIWAAY is HiWAAY Information Services, an independent internet service provider in Huntsville, Alabama, operating since the mid-1990s.
What it's used for
- Residential and business internet access in the Huntsville area — historically dial-up and DSL, today a fixed-wireless ("AIR") service plus dedicated business circuits.
- Web hosting, colocation, and general network services for local customers.
Notable
- A surviving example of the 1990s local-ISP era: HiWAAY predates the cable and telco consolidation that absorbed most of its contemporaries, and it still operates under the same name and ASN.
- Its address footprint is small (a couple of /22-and-smaller blocks), typical of a regional independent rather than a national eyeball network.

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: 447 networks and 1,843 prefixes, as published 2026-11-01. 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.
