Arkansas · network infrastructure
PeeringDB records five facilities in Arkansas across four cities, holding 25 network presences. Little Rock has the most, 13 across TierPoint Little Rock and Mainstream Little Rock, and OzarksGo Fayetteville lists nine on its own. The snapshot records no internet exchange in Arkansas, so networks here peer outside the state.

What a Arkansas IP address tells you
Two cities hold almost all of the network presence recorded in Arkansas. Little Rock accounts for 13 of the 25, with TierPoint Little Rock on nine and Mainstream Little Rock on four. OzarksGo Fayetteville carries another nine, matching the higher of the two Little Rock counts from one building. ARE-ON runs the two remaining records, Hope with two networks and Forrest City with one. No exchange appears in the Arkansas snapshot, so networks in these buildings meet their peers over transit or at exchanges in other states.
An Arkansas IP address reports the operator's registration rather than the place a device sits. Geolocation follows the record published for the address block, and an operator can register one address for prefixes it uses across several states. Mobile networks concentrate further, since AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon each carry subscribers behind regional gateways on five, five and seven ASNs. A handset in Fayetteville can appear on a block that databases read as Little Rock, or as a city outside Arkansas entirely.
The origin ASN and the netname on the prefix answer what a state label cannot. Because Arkansas has no exchange in the snapshot, a network appearing here is either present in one of the five facilities or reaching the state over transit from elsewhere, and the ASN tells you which. A prefix announced from one of the carrier mobile ASNs came from a phone network, whatever city a database attaches to it.
Mobile carriers in the United States
A mobile address anywhere in Arkansas is routed by one of the country's operators. Each entry lists the operator's ASNs so you can check which network an address belongs to.
Questions
How many data centers are in Arkansas?
The snapshot lists five facilities in four cities, holding 25 network presences. OzarksGo Fayetteville and TierPoint Little Rock carry nine each, Mainstream Little Rock four, and the two ARE-ON records in Hope and Forrest City three between them.
Is there an internet exchange in Arkansas?
No exchange appears in the Arkansas snapshot and the state's peer count is zero. Networks with a presence in Little Rock, Fayetteville, Hope or Forrest City exchange traffic over private interconnection or carry it to exchanges in other states.
Can I get an IP address in Arkansas?
Placement follows the operator's address registration, not a customer's choice of state. A prefix reads as Arkansas when the network holding it registered an Arkansas address. On mobile networks the carrier's gateways decide the answer, and AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon each pool subscribers over areas much wider than the state.
