Summary
iseek Communications
legacy isp hosting business
AS9723 (ISEEK-AS-AP) is held by iseek Communications Pty Ltd, a Brisbane-headquartered Australian network and data centre operator. iseek sells connectivity, colocation and cloud services to businesses, government and carriers, with a strong presence in Queensland and regional Australia.
What it's used for
The AS carries a substantial, fragmented inventory: 157 IPv4 prefixes covering 81,152 addresses, plus 2 IPv6 blocks (2407:6800::/32 and a /48), and — the number that defines its role — 34 observed BGP neighbours. Thirty-four adjacencies is far more than an enterprise or a campus (two or three) and far short of a wholesale backbone (hundreds). It is the signature of a regional provider: a handful of upstreams, a spread of IX peers, and a set of downstream customers running their own BGP.
The prefixes back that up. The largest aggregate is 202.83.64.0/19, with the rest in 123.200.0.0/17, 1.178.0.0/15 and 202.183.0.0/16 space carved into /20s through /24s. The reverse DNS is the clincher: it mixes iseek's own infrastructure (mxproc3.iseek.com.au) with third-party service names and, tellingly, other operators' customer-access naming such as dyn-…gazaltelecom.com.au and …dsl.earthlink.com.au. Space carrying another provider's DSL subscribers has been sold on, not consumed in-house.
Notable
- Heavy fragmentation with a modest address count is the classic shape of a B2B provider assigning small blocks per customer site, not a residential ISP handing out large dynamic pools.
- iseek runs colocation data centres alongside the network, so this single AS spans transit, access and hosting roles.
- The business was folded into a listed digital-infrastructure vehicle in a data centre consolidation deal, which is why the brand appears under different corporate parents depending on the source.

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: 447 networks and 1,852 prefixes, as published 2026-10-27. 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.
