About this network

QIS is Quantum Internet Services, Inc., trading as Quantum Internet and Telephone: a family-owned independent ISP in Manchester, Maryland, serving Carroll County and the wider Baltimore metro area. The ASN was registered with ARIN in 1996, shortly after the company was founded.

What it's used for

• Internet access for homes and businesses in its Maryland service area, delivered over DSL, fibre and fixed wireless, alongside VoIP telephone service.
• Reverse DNS shows the split clearly: large stretches of the space are named …dynamic-dsl.qis.net (subscriber pools), while other addresses carry infrastructure names like cr1-cc.qis.net.

Notable

• The AS announces only three IPv4 prefixes and one IPv6 prefix. That very compact footprint is typical of a long-established regional ISP that got its address space early and never needed to assemble more.
• Quantum also offers web hosting and colocation, so a minority of the space serves hosted services rather than subscribers.
