isp legacy

SNIC is Sonic.net, LLC, an independent Californian ISP based in Santa Rosa. It began in the 1990s as a regional dial-up and DSL provider and now sells fibre broadband and voice across parts of the San Francisco Bay Area and northern California.

What it's used for

  • Residential and business internet access. Reverse DNS names the delivery method directly: …fiber.dynamic.sonic.net, …dsl.static.sonic.net, …dedicated.static.sonic.net, alongside router names like vlan102.gw.<site>.sonic.net.
  • Some of the space still resolves under the branding of networks Sonic absorbed, including hypersurf.com, fusionbroadband.com and Mendocino Community Network's mcn.org.

Notable

  • This is an eyeball network: the great majority of the address space is assigned to end subscribers, not to servers.
  • Sonic is unusual among US ISPs for its public stance on customer privacy, including a deliberately short retention window for subscriber records and an outspoken position in surveillance-related legal disputes.
  • The mix of DSL and fibre naming in the same AS reflects a long, gradual technology transition rather than a clean cutover.

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 1,773 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.
