AS49808: the POWERSPEED-AS network

AS49808 is an internet Autonomous System operated by POWERSPEED-AS (Austria). Here is what that means and why this number may show up when you investigate a connection on your network.

What is AS49808?

An Autonomous System (ASN) is a block of networks under a single control with its own routing policy on the internet. The number AS49808 was assigned to POWERSPEED-AS by an RIR (regional internet registry). All traffic entering or leaving that network is announced under this number.

Reach on the internet

AS49808 currently announces 29 IPv4 block(s), totaling about 48.9 thousand addresses (48,896 in all), registered in Austria. Services from POWERSPEED-AS are reached through these addresses.

What it means to see AS49808 on your network

When you investigate where a connection from your computer or phone comes from (or goes to), you may find AS49808. That means the other end sits on the POWERSPEED-AS network (Austria). It can be legitimate — a cloud service, an ISP, a CDN — or an unexpected connection worth checking.
