Cosmote · Greece
Cosmote is a mobile operator in Greece and a division of OTE Group (Hellenic Telecommunications Organisation), of which Deutsche Telekom owns 66.54%. Its mobile network is carried by AS29247, registered to COSMOTE-GR Ote SA and recorded in PeeringDB as Cosmote Mobile Telecommunications S.A. The registry lists MCC/MNC codes 202-01 and 202-02.
Autonomous systems
Holder names and prefix counts come from the RIPE NCC's RIPEstat Data API, fetched on 2026-09-06. Role and confidence come from the evidence linked in each row; "confirmed" means a PeeringDB or RIPEstat record, or the operator's own site, names the operator.
Mobile network codes
The MCC identifies the country and the MNC identifies the operator inside it. Together they appear in the IMSI of every SIM on the network and in device diagnostics; they are how a handset knows which network it is on.
About Cosmote
The registry records one ASN for Cosmote, AS29247, held by COSMOTE-GR Ote SA and documented as carrying the mobile network. At the last probe it announced 13 IPv4 prefixes and 4 IPv6 prefixes. PeeringDB has a record for the ASN under the name Cosmote Mobile Telecommunications S.A., though it sets no network type, so the registry has no PeeringDB category to report for it. No other ASN is recorded against the operator.
An address whose origin ASN is AS29247 is routed by Cosmote, and because the registry documents that ASN as the mobile one, such an address belongs to the operator's mobile network rather than a separate fixed-line network. Cosmote runs 4G LTE and 5G, but the origin ASN identifies the operator and not the access technology behind an individual address, so it does not tell you which generation a given connection used. The registry records no second Cosmote ASN that traffic could originate from instead.
Research note. AS29247: RIPEstat holder 'COSMOTE-GR Ote SA', PeeringDB name 'Cosmote Mobile Telecommunications S.A.', RIPE DB descr same; announced (17 prefixes). Parent: Wikipedia states Cosmote is a division of OTE, of which Deutsche Telekom owns 66.54%. Website per Wikipedia (cosmote.gr); www.cosmote.gr and www.ote.gr were unreachable (DNS) from this session, so generations (LTE 800/1800/2600, 5G 700/1800/2100/3500; UMTS shut Dec 2021) come from the Wikipedia MNC table, not the operator site. MNC 202-03 'OTE' (status unknown) exists but was not a candidate; not included.
Checking whether an IP belongs to Cosmote
Look up the origin ASN of the address and compare it with the table above. RIPEstat answers for any address, and the RADB whois mirror lists the routes registered under an ASN.

What is Cosmote's ASN?
The registry records one ASN for Cosmote, AS29247, held by COSMOTE-GR Ote SA (Hellenic Telecommunications Organisation) and documented as the ASN carrying the mobile network. PeeringDB lists it as Cosmote Mobile Telecommunications S.A. At the last probe it announced 13 IPv4 prefixes and 4 IPv6 prefixes.
What is the MCC/MNC of Cosmote?
Cosmote is recorded with two MCC/MNC pairs, 202-01 and 202-02. The mobile country code 202 belongs to Greece, and both network codes point to Cosmote. The registry holds no confirmed third code for the operator and does not record one.
Is an IP from AS29247 a mobile IP?
AS29247 is documented as the ASN carrying Cosmote's mobile network, so an address originating there is routed by that network. The registry does not break the ASN's prefixes down by service, so it cannot confirm that any individual address was assigned to a handset.
