How ISP IP Ranges Work

Virgin Media receives IP address blocks from its regional internet registry and announces them to the global internet via BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) under AS5089 and AS13285. These blocks are subdivided and assigned to customers, infrastructure, and data centers across United Kingdom.

When you enter a Virgin Media IP in our lookup tool, we query the MaxMind GeoLite2 ASN database to identify the Autonomous System and return the associated network registration data — including the geographic location of the IP block and the registered organization name.
