About this network

LAKENETWORKS-AS is a small hosting and network-services provider operating out of Como, Italy, offering cloud, VPS, web hosting, colocation and IP transit. ARIN registered this ASN to its current holder in January 2025, so the low number is a recent reissue with no early-internet history.

What it's used for

• Hosting and transit. The AS originates a handful of IPv4 /24s plus a comparatively large set of IPv6 prefixes, and offers BGP sessions and IPv6 allocations to downstream users.
• Reverse DNS is internally consistent across the estate: customer assignments under customer.lakenetworks.net, a core router named core01-nyc, and hosts under the operator's Italian domain.

Notable

• The address space is drawn from both ARIN and RIPE ranges. Scattered multi-RIR /24s are often a warning sign of address leasing, but here the coherent operator-controlled rDNS, a published looking glass and a PeeringDB presence all point to a genuine, if small, network.
• The ARIN registrant address is a California mailbox suite. The operational network is Italian; treat the US registration as a paperwork detail, not a location.

Interesting

• The operator's own reverse DNS spans a .it domain for its Italian estate and a .net domain for its US-facing routers, which is why a name-only lookup can place this network on the wrong continent.
