AS22541: the MEGALINK S.R.L. network

AS22541 is an internet Autonomous System operated by MEGALINK S.R.L. (Bolivia). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS22541?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS22541 was assigned to MEGALINK S.R.L. by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS22541 currently announces 12 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 12 thousand addresses (12,032 in all), registered in Bolivia. Services from MEGALINK S.R.L. are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS22541 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS22541. That means the other end sits on the MEGALINK S.R.L. network (Bolivia). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
