What it's used for
This is a mid-sized national ISP's access network. The AS originates 31 IPv4 prefixes totalling 7,424 addresses, plus 2 IPv6 /48s (2404:9900:1::/48, 2404:9900:2::/48). The IPv4 inventory is almost entirely /24s with a couple of /22 aggregates (45.124.168.0/22, 103.4.144.0/22), spread across a broad set of APNIC ranges — 103.4, 103.136, 103.230, 103.245, 103.250, 43.224, 43.225, 45.124, 202.58. That accumulation of small, unrelated blocks is characteristic of a Bangladeshi ISP that has grown by taking whatever APNIC would allocate at each step; there is no single large legacy block underneath it. Only 4 BGP neighbours are observed, so the network buys transit from a handful of upstreams (Bangladesh's ISPs typically also sit on the BDIX exchange for domestic traffic) and is not itself a wholesale carrier. The address count is modest for a subscriber network, which fits an operator relying on carrier-grade NAT for its residential base.
Notable
- 31 prefixes for only 7,424 addresses: heavily fragmented space, the hallmark of incremental APNIC allocations rather than an early bulk assignment.
- IPv6 is present but minimal — two /48s, against 31 IPv4 routes.
- Next Online is a BDIX participant, so a meaningful share of its traffic is domestic peering that never appears as transit.

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 1,775 prefixes, as published 2026-10-11. A short, high-confidence list, so a match is worth taking seriously, and absence from it says little on its own.

IC3 threat data is alpha. Absence of an indicator is not evidence of good behaviour, only of absence from this one feed.
