AS6703 ALKAR-AS PRIVATE JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "FARLEP-INVEST"
Residential RIPE
Summary
Vega Telecom (Farlep-Invest)
isp legacy
ALKAR-AS is the main network of PrJSC Farlep-Invest, which trades under the Vega brand — one of Ukraine's largest fixed-line telecom operators. Vega is part of the Vodafone Ukraine group.
What it's used for
- Fixed broadband and telephony for homes and businesses across Ukraine, plus business connectivity, IP transit and data-centre services.
- Announces roughly 153,000 IPv4 addresses across around 175 prefixes. Reverse DNS resolves under
vega-ua.net, with city tags in the names (…od.vega-ua.netfor Odesa) and separatestatic.ranges for fixed-address customers — the classic layout of an eyeball network that also sells to businesses.
Notable
- Vega was assembled from a number of regional Ukrainian operators, and the fragmented prefix list reflects that history: many small blocks from unrelated ranges rather than a few large contiguous allocations.
- The
ALKARhandle is a fossil: it matches neither the registrant's legal name nor the brand the company actually sells under, and survives only because AS names are rarely changed.
Interesting
- Vega's fixed-line footprint made it a natural fit for Vodafone Ukraine, whose own business is mobile — the acquisition paired a mobile operator with a national fibre and copper network rather than merging two of the same thing.

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: 453 networks and 1,853 prefixes, as published 2026-11-05. 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.
