Summary
Splice Internet
residential isp eyeball fiber
SPLICE-AS-AP is Splice Internet Pty Ltd, a regional ISP selling home and business broadband on the Rural Fibre Co network in Gippsland, Victoria, Australia.
What it's used for
- Residential and small-business internet access. Addresses here are subscribers' connections, not servers.
- RIS sees a small footprint:
157.85.128.0/18and163.128.244.0/23on IPv4, plus2402:58a0::/32on IPv6, all registered to Splice Internet at APNIC. - Upstream transit comes from GSL Networks (AS137409) and Hurricane Electric (AS6939), the shape of a regional retail ISP rather than a carrier.
Notable
- Eyeball network, confirmed by reverse DNS. Sampled PTRs resolve to
…cgnat.vic.spliceinternet.au. Carrier-grade NAT pools exist to share one public address across many household connections. - AS8100 changed hands in August 2026. It was QuadraNet's (
ASN-QUADRANET-GLOBAL) US hosting network until ARIN transferred the number to APNIC on 2026-08-18. QuadraNet's former prefixes are now announced by other networks, e.g. ColoCrossing (AS36352) and Hivelocity (AS29802). Blocklists built from the old hosting classification will wrongly catch Splice's home users.

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: 431 networks and 1,768 prefixes, as published 2026-10-12. 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.
