Address facts

156.252.40.13
GNETINC-AS-AP GNET INC. (AS9294) · US · reverse DNS none (checked 2026-10-19 10:28 UTC)

Network (AS) and country come from the public iptoasn.com routing dataset; a reverse-DNS name is what the address's owner published. Neither shows who controls the hostname: shared hosting, CDNs and cloud providers put unrelated names behind one address.
