Residential RIPE Cable/DSL/ISP
Summary
kabelplus (kabsi)
isp residential legacy
KABSI-AS is kabelplus GmbH, an Austrian cable operator serving Lower Austria and neighbouring regions. Its internet service is branded kabsi, and the AS carries the company's cable-broadband subscribers.
What it's used for
- Residential cable broadband. The dominant reverse-DNS pattern across the space is
hA.B.C.DDD.dyn.cm.kabsi.at— dyn for dynamic, cm for cable modem. That naming covers large stretches of the announced ranges and is unambiguous subscriber addressing. - Business and static customer space under the
bnet.atbrand appears alongside it, withIP-WITH-DASHES.static.bnet.atand.customer.bnet.atnaming, so the AS carries both consumer and SME connections. - Operator infrastructure (nameservers, outbound mail relays) resolves under
kabelplus.atandkabsi.atdirectly. - Roughly 240k IPv4 addresses across about thirty prefixes, anchored by a large legacy
62.40.128.0/17.
Notable
- Eyeball network. Addresses in the dynamic cable pools belong to Austrian households and rotate between them. Geolocate regionally in Austria, and expect consumer behaviour.
- The
bnet.atnaming is a separate brand inside the same AS, not a separate operator. Static assignments under it are business customers of the same cable network.
Interesting
- The AS announces
202.170.80.0/21, an APNIC-range block that was transferred to the RIPE region in 2022 and is now used for Austrian cable subscribers. Anything that infers geography from the traditional Asia-Pacific202/8allocation will place these households on the wrong continent.

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 1,783 prefixes, as published 2026-10-17. 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.
