About this network

AIRSTREAMCOMM-NET is Airstream Communications, LLC, the shared internet network of a consortium of roughly 28 independent Wisconsin telephone companies and cooperatives — Baldwin Lightstream, Amery, Amherst, Coon Valley-Farmers, Citizens Connected, Vernon Communications Coop and many others. Airstream is the joint upstream those member companies route through.

What it's used for

Residential and small-business broadband across rural Wisconsin, aggregated under one AS. RIS observes 23 IPv4 prefixes totalling about 173,000 addresses, 3 IPv6 prefixes, and 82 observed neighbours — a mid-sized regional network with real peering, larger than any single member telco could justify alone.

The registrant list looks scattered at first glance and is nothing of the sort: the prefixes are registered to the member companies themselves — Coon Valley-Farmers Telephone, Amherst Telephone, Amery Telephone, Baldwin Telecom, Ntera — while Airstream announces them. These are not unrelated third parties; they are the co-owners of the network doing the announcing, which is what a telco consortium looks like in the registries.

Reverse DNS confirms what the space carries, and it is unambiguous: dsl-, dhcp-, pppoe, cable, dynamic and calix hostnames under airstreamcomm.net, mwt.net and citizens-connected.net, named per town — Coon Valley, LaValle, Amery, Baldwin, New Richmond, Phillips. This is subscriber access space, delivered over DSL, cable and fibre.

Notable

The rDNS is a map of the member roster: each block is labelled with the exchange it serves. It also names the access technology, not the customer — dsl and pppoe here are ordinary home broadband, not anything more exotic.
