How HProxy checks 117.247.233.62:8080
HProxy has checked 117.247.233.62:8080 956 times and it answered 125 of those. Every one of those was a real connection attempt, never a lookup.
36 public sources published it
117.247.233.62 appears in 36 of the public proxy sources HProxy tracks. Lists copy from each other constantly, so an address showing up in many of them says a lot about how widely it was republished and very little about whether it ever worked.
Port 8080: HTTP, alternate
Port 8080 is the most common proxy port on the internet. It stands in for port 80, and unlike port 80 any program can open it without administrator rights. That single detail is why so much ends up here, the deliberate and the accidental alike.
Every check is a real connection
HProxy does not read this address off somebody else's list and pass it on. Each check opens a real connection to 117.247.233.62:8080 and gives it up to 90 seconds to answer. Slow is not the same as dead, and plenty of working proxies take half a minute to reply. Anything that does not answer in that budget counts as a failure and is recorded as one, which is why the percentage on this page moves rather than sitting at a marketing number. The handshake is attempted across HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5, so a proxy is never missed because we guessed the wrong protocol.
956 checks, 125 answered
That is 13% of the time, measured since June 14, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.
We are still watching for it to come back
Being archived does not stop the testing. 117.247.233.62:8080 answered before, so it is exactly the kind of address that can return, and the sweep works through the whole database and reaches every address roughly once every 24 hours. Its last check was on August 8, 2026, so the next one is due within a day of that. The moment it answers again it is promoted straight back into the live free proxy list, automatically, with no manual step.

Where this address sits
Right now our free pool holds 1 other free proxy on Bharat Sanchar, and 729 in India. 117.247.233.62:8080 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.
How many free proxies are on Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd
Open proxies cluster rather than spreading evenly across the internet. Hosting providers and cloud platforms run enormous numbers of near-identical servers, so a handful of networks end up carrying a disproportionate share of every public proxy list, including ours. HProxy tracks 253 addresses on AS9829, which is 0.04% of every address in the database and a small corner of the database. That makes it the 147th largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. 1 of them is answering right now, so if this particular address is not usable, the network is a reasonable place to look for one that is.

Questions about 117.247.233.62:8080
Is 117.247.233.62:8080 a working proxy?
No, not any more. It was a working public proxy in HProxy's free pool and has since gone dark, last answering on July 15, 2026. We still re-test it periodically in case it returns.
Was 117.247.233.62 ever actually a proxy?
Yes. We ran 956 checks against it and it answered 125 of them, about 13% of the time, over 31 days on our list.
Where was 117.247.233.62 hosted?
India, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd (AS9829). It is a residential or ISP address rather than a datacenter one.
Why keep a page for an address that no longer works?
Because "was this address ever a proxy, and when" is a real question. If you are looking at this IP in a firewall log or an abuse report, the dates and the check counts here are the answer. HProxy's public proxy IP list keeps every address it has ever tracked and carries on re-testing them, so deleting this record would throw all of that away.
How many free proxies are on Bharat Sanchar?
1 other free proxy is live on Bharat Sanchar (AS9829) in our pool right now, alongside 117.247.233.62:8080. Networks that host one open proxy usually host several, which is why the whole AS is worth browsing rather than just this address.
Are there other free proxies in India?
Yes, 729 free proxies are exiting from India in our pool right now, answering in 727ms at the median. If this address is not usable, that list is the place to look for a working one.
Upgrade to the paid network
Need pools that stay clean?
Free IPs are shared and rotate out fast, so success rates swing. The paid network gives you dedicated-clean pools that hold up under load.
About this list & IP removal
Every proxy here is aggregated from publicly available sources. We do not scan or collect these IP addresses ourselves: we verify entries that are already public (live status, latency, uptime) and store nothing else about the devices behind them. The list is provided as-is, with no warranty, for lawful use only, on the basis of our legitimate interest in a free, transparent proxy directory (Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR). Never route passwords or sensitive data through a public proxy. If an IP address is yours and you'd like it removed, email legal@hproxy.com and we'll take it down (Art. 21 GDPR).
