Estimated users is a published estimate of how many people use this network, extrapolated from 430,191 observations over a 60 day window. Large operators often run several networks, so a low figure can mean their customers reach the internet through a sibling network.

What this tells you

  • An estimated 1,746,761 people use this network, from 430,191 observations over a 60 day window, which is a large figure for any network in United States.
  • Hosts exit infrastructure for 9 different VPN brands, among them Private Internet Access, NordVPN and CyberGhost. That is characteristic of a provider that rents capacity to several VPN operators.
  • 29% of the IPv4 space here is VPN-related, so traffic from this network is unlikely to be ordinary end users.
  • Its space resolves to 113 countries, concentrated in United States (23% of the IPv4 space), a multinational footprint.
  • Of those, 1,066,060 are in Egypt, the largest of the 74 countries it serves, 2% of everyone online there.
  • 132 distinct organisations hold registered assignments inside this space, so an address here often belongs to one of their customers.
