Summary
TVB New Media Group (myTV SUPER)
cdn enterprise legacy
AS9253 (MYTV-HK) is held by New Media Group Limited, the digital arm of Hong Kong broadcaster Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB). It is the network behind myTV SUPER, TVB's over-the-top streaming and OTT set-top platform.
What it's used for
This is a broadcaster's content-delivery network, not an access ISP. The reverse DNS is the decisive evidence: sampled addresses resolve to shield1-2.edgeware.hk4.tvb.com and cav.tvb.com.hk. Both are under TVB's own domains, and the first names a piece of streaming infrastructure — Edgeware is a video-delivery and CDN appliance vendor, and shield is a caching-tier role name. Addresses carrying named video-delivery nodes rather than templated subscriber PTRs is exactly what you expect from a media company serving its own streams.
RIS sees 8 IPv4 prefixes carrying 6,144 addresses, no IPv6, and 10 observed neighbours. The neighbour count matters here: ten adjacencies against only six thousand addresses is a high ratio, and it is the signature of a content network that peers to push traffic out efficiently rather than an eyeball network pulling it in. The estate itself is a 202.126.48.0/20 deaggregated into /21s and /23s, plus later 103.84.220.0/22 and 45.115.196.0/22 allocations — enough space to run streaming origin and edge tiers, but nowhere near an access provider's footprint.
Notable
- myTV SUPER is TVB's subscription streaming service, launched as the broadcaster's OTT platform; this AS carries its delivery infrastructure.
- The AS is registered to New Media Group Limited, but everything in the live network is named under
tvb.com— the same corporate group.

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: 442 networks and 1,784 prefixes, as published 2026-10-19. 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.
