About this network

MTN Irancell is one of Iran's largest mobile operators, a joint venture involving the MTN Group.

What it's used for

• Mobile data for a very large Iranian subscriber base, plus fixed-wireless (TD-LTE) home internet.

Notable

• A large "eyeball" network: addresses here are typically mobile devices or fixed-wireless homes, often behind carrier-grade NAT, so geo is coarse.
• Iran's second mobile operator, competing with the incumbent MCI (Hamrah-e Aval) and Rightel.

Interesting

• Irancell was a major MTN emerging-market venture; operating in Iran has kept it entangled with sanctions and currency-repatriation complications over the years.
