Estimated users is a published estimate of how many people use this network, extrapolated from 14,614 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
- Hosts exit infrastructure for 3 different VPN brands, among them IPVanish, NordVPN and VPN Unlimited. That is characteristic of a provider that rents capacity to several VPN operators.
- Its space resolves to 8 countries, concentrated almost entirely in United Kingdom (96% of the IPv4 space), so it is effectively a single-market network despite the spread.
- An estimated 29,868 people using this network are in United Kingdom, <0.1% of everyone online there.
- 62 distinct organisations hold registered assignments inside this space, so an address here often belongs to one of their customers.

One address can carry more than one of these, so the rows add up to more than the space they cover.
VPN operators using this network
Space published by a named VPN provider covers <0.1% of this network's IPv4 space. The table below divides that space. That counts only what providers publish as their own exits. Space merely associated with VPN use is wider, and is counted under Anonymizer signals above.

| IPVanish | 53% | |
| NordVPN | 39% | |
| VPN Unlimited | 8% |
