Residential ARIN
Summary
DWX Internet Services
isp residential legacy
DWX-AS — a small independent Internet service provider in the Des Moines, Iowa metro. The ARIN registrant reads Waddell Digital Imaging Center, but the network in production is DWX Internet Services (Digital Warehouse Xpress), which sells access to homes and businesses across central Iowa.
What it's used for
- Consumer and small-business internet access in the Des Moines area — DSL, fixed wireless and fibre-served customers.
- The provider's own mail, DNS and hosting services for its subscribers.
Notable
- Reverse DNS is the honest witness here: addresses resolve under
dwx.netanddwx.comwith subscriber-shaped names likeip20.dsl.dwx.comandip7-207.206.197.dwx.net, alongsideiowabroadband.comhosts. That is an access network, not a datacentre. - The whole footprint is a single contiguous ARIN legacy block,
207.206.192.0/19(11 announced /24s), and the AS has just one observed upstream. A regional ISP of exactly the size it appears to be. - An IP here should be read as an Iowa end user, not a server.
Interesting
- The registrant name is a leftover: the ASN and the CIDR were registered in 1996 to a Des Moines imaging business, and the ISP grew out of it. Handles routinely outlive the company that first filed them.

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: 454 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-11-08. 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.
