What is an ISP and an ASN?
Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) is the company that gives you connectivity: Comcast, AT&T, Telmex, Movistar, etc. Each ISP has one or more ASN (Autonomous System Number), a unique identifier for its network on the internet. We detect both from your public IP.
Why know your ISP?
- To compare your real speed with your provider's average.
- To verify you're connected through the operator you signed up with.
- To report issues with precise technical data (ASN included).
