Leaving Cyber Gateway: datacenter proxies compared on what you get per IP

Comparing a Cyber Gateway alternative? The published numbers, the questions their pricing page leaves open, and a ten minute test that beats every review.

Free proxies won't hold up here.

Shared datacenter IPs get flagged and dropped fast. When it has to hold, gaming, streaming, accounts, you need mobile and residential IPs that read as a real device, from $0.44/GB, pay as you go.

A comparison written by a competitor is worth reading only if it says where the competitor loses. That rule shapes this page about Cyber Gateway, and the last section names the reader who should stay put.

What we can and cannot tell you about Cyber Gateway

The company behind the name sits at cyber-gateway.net. We carry them as a datacenter proxy provider.

What we do not hold is a current, sourced price for Cyber Gateway. Rather than print a figure we cannot stand behind, this page leaves it out and tells you what to look for when you read their page yourself.

Look for the tier you would actually land in, not the one at the bottom of the table, and find the expiry and failed-request clauses before the rate impresses you.

What Cyber Gateway says about itself today

On 9 September 2026 their homepage carried the title "Buy Fast Datacenter Proxies, From $0.07/IP, HTTP and SOCKS5 - Cyber Gateway". Their own summary of the product runs: "View cyber-gateway.net offer: fast and stable datacenter IPv4 proxies. Buy now! Proxy list for your choice, different geo locations. Affordable pricing."

The rest of what the page puts in writing:

The product lines named on that page are datacenter and SOCKS5. They advertise 50 countries or locations. Support is advertised as around the clock. We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.

None of that is verified performance. It is what the vendor chose to publish, recorded with a date so you can see whether it still says the same thing.

The domain record

The domain was registered on 11 January 2015, through EnCirca, Inc, which makes it about 11 years old. Registry data as of 9 September 2026. It is paid up until 11 January 2028.

Read that as a floor rather than a recommendation. Longevity says somebody has kept paying the registrar, and in a market with this much churn that is worth ten seconds of your attention.

Where published figures stop being useful

A pool total is not a promise

The number that matters is how many usable exits you can reach in the one country your job needs, this week. A pool total averages that away, which is why two providers with similar totals produce opposite results on the same site.

Money you paid for and did not spend

Expiry is the quietest price increase in this market. A plan sized for a busy month is expensive in a slow one, and the difference never appears in any comparison table, including ones written by vendors who benefit from it.

The rate behind the sales call

The lowest published rate in this market usually sits behind a monthly commitment measured in thousands. Quoting it beside a pay as you go rate is not a comparison. Compare the rate you can reach today.

A comparison that admits what it cannot say

The rows below are the ones that change what you pay and whether the job runs:

Nothing in that table settles the decision on its own. It narrows the field to two or three, and then measurement finishes the job.

The ten minute version of this decision

For a few dollars you can get a verdict specific to your job, which no comparison page can honestly promise you.

  1. Open an account on each and add the smallest amount they take. Skip the trial if a paid unit is cheap enough to buy outright.
  2. Point both at your real target, through your real tool, on the same day, with the same mix of requests.
  3. Log successes, failures and gigabytes used. Cost per successful request is the figure you are after.
  4. Verify a slice of the exits independently. Country labels in this market are self-reported and are not always right.
  5. Buy the one that won on your target, and diarise a re-test in three months.

Who else is in this bracket

The same treatment, applied to the providers most often weighed against this one:

Where HProxy sits in that test

We sell residential proxies from $0.44 per GB with no subscription and a balance that does not expire, plus ISP, mobile and datacenter in the same account. That is the pitch, and the test above is a better judge of it than this paragraph.

Frequently asked questions

How do I compare two providers fairly?
Match the units first, because residential is billed per gigabyte, datacenter and ISP per address, and mobile per day or per port. Then compare the rate you can actually reach today rather than the volume tier behind a commitment. Finish by measuring the success rate on your own target, since a cheap request that fails costs more than a dearer one that works.
How is HProxy different?
The models differ more than the products do. HProxy is pay as you go from a balance you top up when you want, the balance does not expire, there is no subscription unless the optional discount suits you, and residential starts at $0.44 per GB with city and ISP targeting included. Whether that beats a tiered plan depends on your usage pattern, which a short test settles.
Do I have to talk to sales or sign a contract to switch?
Not with us. You can sign up, add funds and send traffic without a call, a minimum or a subscription. Whether another provider requires any of those is on their own pricing page and is worth reading, because a required commitment is part of the price even when it is not part of the rate.
How often should I re-test a provider?
Quarterly is a reasonable rhythm for most workloads, and immediately after a noticeable drop in success rate. Pools are rebuilt, suppliers change and detection improves, so a benchmark from last year describes a network that no longer exists.
Does a bigger pool mean better results?
No. Your job meets only the exits it draws, in the countries it needs, against one target's defences. Freshness and rotation policy move the outcome far more than the headline total, and pool totals across this market are counted generously and rarely audited.

Proxies that don't die mid-job

Residential, ISP, datacenter and mobile, verified by the same engine that runs tens of millions of checks. They read as a real device and hold up under load. Pay as you go, and your balance never expires. $0.44/GB is the 2,000 GB+ rate; a single gigabyte is $0.50/GB, with no minimum order.
