Country
Nigeria
Address space that resolves to Nigeria, and who operates it.
Where the space resolves, which is an estimate for the block, not a fix on any device. A network can hold space in many countries at once, so the same space is counted on more than one country page.
What this tells you
- 425 networks hold address space located in Nigeria, run by 75 operators we can group by name.
- An estimated 75,870,309 people browse from Nigeria, over a 60 day window. Counted where the users are, whatever registry their network belongs to.
- The largest operator we can identify by name here is SPECTRANET LIMITED, holding 3% of the IPv4 space.
- VPN exit infrastructure here belongs to Apple Private Relay, ProtonVPN, TunnelBear and 7 other providers. An address in Nigeria is not necessarily a person in Nigeria.

Organisations holding space here
Registered organisations account for 99% of this country's IPv4 space and 100% of its IPv6 space. The table below divides that space. Registered holders come from the bulk whois that RIPE, APNIC and AFRINIC publish. ARIN and LACNIC do not publish theirs, so space held in North and South America is largely unattributed here.

Anonymizer signals
Flagged space covers 11% of this country's IPv4 space and 19% of its IPv6 space. The table below divides that space.
| Category | IPv4 share | IPv6 share | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Datacenter | 98% | 99% | |
| Open proxy | 17% | 0.2% | |
| VPN | 1% | <0.1% |
One address can carry more than one of these, so the rows add up to more than the space they cover.
VPN providers with exits here
Space published by a named VPN provider covers <0.1% of this country's IPv4 space and <0.1% of its IPv6 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.
| Provider | IPv4 share | IPv6 share | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apple Private Relay | 77% | 100% | |
| ProtonVPN | 10% | - | |
| TunnelBear | 7% | - | |

| PureVPN | 0.8% | - | |
| IPVanish | 0.8% | - | |
| Mullvad | 0.5% | <0.1% | |
| Everything else (1 more) | 0.3% | <0.1% |
