Summary
Entel S.A. (EntelNet)
isp eyeball legacy
AS6568 is the main autonomous system of Empresa Nacional de Telecomunicaciones S.A. (Entel), Bolivia's state-owned incumbent telecommunications operator, routing under the name EntelNet. It is registered with LACNIC.
What it's used for
Entel is Bolivia's dominant carrier, providing mobile service, fixed fibre broadband, pay-TV, and long-distance and international connectivity. AS6568 originates roughly 228,000 IPv4 addresses across some 200 prefixes, concentrated in the Bolivian ranges 200.87.0.0/16, 190.129.0.0/16 and 181.115.0.0/16, along with around 80 IPv6 prefixes.
Notable
This is an eyeball network: most of the address space terminates on Bolivian consumers, both mobile handsets and fixed broadband lines, rather than on servers. Because Entel carries both its mobile and its fixed customers, an IP in this AS can be either.
Do not confuse this Entel with the Chilean operator of the same name. "Empresa Nacional de Telecomunicaciones" is the expansion in both countries, but AS6568 is the Bolivian company: LACNIC registers it under a Bolivian organisation handle, and every announced range is Bolivian.
Entel was founded in 1965 and nationalised in 2008; the Bolivian state holds the overwhelming majority of its shares. LACNIC recorded AS6568 in May 1996.

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: 442 networks and 1,773 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.
