Summary
Onlime GmbH
isp hosting legacy
AS9163 (Onlime-NET) is held by Onlime GmbH, a small German operator based at Bexen 2 in Aerzen, Lower Saxony. Onlime runs a satellite teleport and data-centre site in the Hamelin/Aerzen area and sells internet, data and voice connectivity from it.
What it's used for
The announced inventory is modest and unusually uniform: RIS sees 12 IPv4 prefixes totalling 3,072 addresses, and every one of them is a /24 drawn from 213.208.52.0/24 through 213.208.63.0/24. No IPv6 is announced at all. Splitting what is effectively a /20-sized run into twelve individually announced /24s is a deliberate choice: it lets each block be homed, filtered or handed to a different customer or site independently, at the cost of twelve routing-table slots instead of one.
One observed BGP neighbour is the decisive figure. A network with a single upstream is a customer of the internet, not a supplier of transit to it. Combined with 3,072 addresses, this is the footprint of a niche provider serving its own hosted services and a small set of connectivity customers out of one facility, rather than an access network with a subscriber base of any scale.
Notable
- Onlime's site is a teleport, so satellite uplink and downlink are part of the business, not just terrestrial IP.
- The company describes technical hubs in both Europe and Africa, which fits a teleport operator carrying capacity to regions where satellite is still the practical option.
- Twelve /24s, one upstream, no IPv6: this AS is comfortably inside the long tail of the routing table.

Reputation
Classification and threat
Unclassified Not in the curated lists. Most of the ~80,000 allocated ASNs are not.
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: 455 networks and 1,849 prefixes, as published 2026-11-14. 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.
