Residential APNIC
Summary
JCOM Co., Ltd.
isp residential eyeball cable legacy
ATNETHOME is held by JCOM Co., Ltd. (J:COM), Japan's largest cable-television operator. The handle preserves @NetHome, the cable-broadband ISP brand that J:COM's predecessor group ran before absorbing it.
What it's used for
- Two prefixes,
61.211.144.0/20and210.228.0.0/20— about 8,200 addresses. No IPv6 is announced on this AS. - Reverse DNS is straightforward cable-subscriber addressing:
allNNNNNNNNN.allnet.ne.jp, sequentially numbered per address.allnet.ne.jpwas the ISP domain of Titus Communications, a cable operator later folded into the Jupiter Telecom group that became J:COM. - This is a legacy pocket of J:COM's subscriber space rather than the company's main network. J:COM's bulk cable-broadband customers are numbered on other, much larger ASNs.
Notable
- Residential space, and it should geolocate to Japanese households, not to a corporate address.
- JPNIC records the
61.211.144.0/20allocation to 2001, under theATNETHOMEnetname, and it still routes today — the brand is gone, the block is not.
Interesting
- @NetHome was launched in 1999 as a joint venture between Jupiter Telecom, Sumitomo Corporation and the American @Home Network, whose cable-modem model it imported. @Home Network went bankrupt in 2001; the Japanese venture survived, was later rebranded ZAQ, and was eventually merged away entirely — leaving this AS handle as one of the few places its name still appears.

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: 448 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-10-29. 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.
