Summary
Metrotel S.A. E.S.P.
isp broadband legacy
Metrotel S.A. E.S.P. is a Colombian fixed-line fibre operator, originally out
of Barranquilla on the Caribbean coast and now also present in Bogotá. It
announces roughly 67,000 IPv4 addresses.
What it's used for
- Fibre broadband to homes, offices and commercial buildings in its Colombian service area, plus corporate connectivity.
- The space is entirely LACNIC-registered Colombian ranges (
190.182.0.0/18,190.1.128.0upward,200.89.x,201.220.x), announced as a couple of large aggregates plus many deaggregated/24s.
Notable
- An IP here is normally a subscriber, home or business, on Metrotel's own fibre — not a server. It is an access network, not a hosting one.
- Almost none of the space carries reverse DNS, which is common for Latin American access providers and means rDNS gives no help identifying a given host.
E.S.P.in the name is the Colombian legal designation Empresa de Servicios Públicos (public-utility company); it is not part of a brand.
Interesting
- The AS has a single upstream, Colombia Telecomunicaciones, so despite its size it is a leaf network rather than a regional transit provider.
