Where this address sits
Right now our free pool holds 12 other free proxies on Akamai, and 293 in Japan. 139.162.78.109:1080 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are. At 1522ms it is slower than the 1058ms median for Japan proxies.
Akamai Technologies, Inc. is the 48th largest source of free proxies we have ever measured.
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 1,310 addresses on AS63949, which is 0.14% of every address in the database and a meaningful pocket of the database. That makes it the 48th largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. 13 of them are answering right now, so if this particular address is not usable, the network is a reasonable place to look for one that is.

How HProxy checks 139.162.78.109:1080
139.162.78.109:1080 is in the live pool right now, and it stays there only for as long as it keeps answering.
Port 1080: SOCKS
Port 1080 is the officially registered home of SOCKS, which forwards any kind of connection instead of only web traffic. An address offered on 1080 is being presented as a general purpose tunnel, not just a web proxy.
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 139.162.78.109:1080 and gives it up to 90 seconds to answer. Slow is not the same as unreachable, 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, which is how we know it spoke SOCKS5.
1,033 checks, 968 answered
That is 94% of the time, measured since June 18, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.
It is being re-tested continuously
139.162.78.109:1080 is in the live rotation, so it is re-tested continuously rather than on a daily cycle. If it stops answering it is marked down immediately, and if it stays down for 3 days it moves into the public proxy database with its full record intact. Nothing is deleted at any point.

How fast is 139.162.78.109:1080?

Is it safe to use 139.162.78.109:1080?
Treat it the way you would any public proxy: it is operated by someone we have no relationship with, it is shared with strangers, and anything you send unencrypted over it can be read. Fine for a quick geo check or a scrape of public data, never for logins, payments or anything private.

12 other free proxies are live on Akamai (AS63949) in our pool right now, alongside 139.162.78.109:1080. Networks that host one open proxy usually host several, which is why the whole AS is worth browsing rather than just this address.

Upgrade to the paid network
This one is good, and it will still disappear.
139.162.78.109:1080 has answered 94% of our checks, which puts it well above most of what we track. It is still a public endpoint with nobody standing behind it: nobody agreed to serve you, no capacity is set aside for you, and there is no warning on the day it stops. Fine for a test, a bad foundation for anything that has to work tomorrow.

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).
