AS9918 — KGTNET-TW KG Telecommunication Co., Ltd
AS9918 announces 13 IPv4 prefixes covering 4,352 addresses and 3 IPv6 prefixes.
About this network
AS9918's registry entry today reads TAI FU INTERNATIONAL NETWORK CO., LTD. under the handle TAIFU-AS, registered in Taiwan. Older records and several databases still show the ASN under its original Taiwanese handle KGTNET-TW for KG Telecommunication. The company now holding it has no meaningful public footprint, so this card describes what the routing shows rather than asserting a corporate story that cannot be checked.
What it's used for
The inventory looks like Hong Kong corporate connectivity. RIS sees 18 IPv4 prefixes carrying 4,352 addresses and 3 IPv6 prefixes, with only 3 observed BGP neighbours — far too few peers to be any kind of carrier. The v4 space is not one allocation: it is scattered /24s drawn from six unrelated parents (152.101, 202.66, 202.76, 202.80, 202.88, 202.133), and the three v6 prefixes come from two different parent blocks.
Reverse DNS is where it gets interesting. Most sampled addresses answer under static.hk.net, a domain belonging to HKNet, a long-established Hong Kong ISP now part of NTT Com Asia — a different company from the registered holder. The rest are named for Hong Kong corporate end-users: a media firm, a trading company, an electronics manufacturer. Read carefully, that means the space carries Hong Kong business customers on statically assigned addresses, using another operator's naming convention. It does not make AS9918 that operator.
Notable
- Registered in Taiwan, but everything the network carries points at Hong Kong.
- Scattered /24s from many unrelated parents plus third-party reverse DNS is a shape worth treating with caution; the holder's identity is not independently confirmable.
