What normal looks like

Every number above is measured against these two.

A percentage on a proxy list means nothing without the shape of the thing it came from. These are the two distributions the rest of this page compares against, drawn from HProxy's own checks rather than from anybody's marketing page.

Where this address sits

Right now our free pool holds 2,335 other free proxies on Amazon, and 564 in Switzerland. 16.18.118.122:3128 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are. At 1597ms it is slower than the 237ms median for Switzerland proxies.

Amazon.com, Inc. is the 2nd 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 32,269 addresses on AS16509, which is 4.9% of every address in the database and a substantial share of everything HProxy tracks. That makes it the 2nd largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. 2,336 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 16.18.118.122:3128

16.18.118.122:3128 is in the live pool right now, and it stays there only for as long as it keeps answering.

  1. Port 3128: Squid default

    Port 3128 is the default for Squid, the most widely installed proxy software in the world. Most addresses published on 3128 are Squid servers that were meant to serve one office or one network and ended up reachable by everybody.

  2. It has answered every single check

    Each check opens a real connection to 16.18.118.122:3128 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. 16.18.118.122:3128 has completed that handshake on all 20 attempts so far, which is rare on a free public proxy and worth treating with some suspicion until the record is longer. The handshake is attempted across HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5, which is how we know it spoke HTTP and HTTPS and SOCKS4.

  3. 20 checks, 20 answered

    That is 100% of the time, measured since August 26, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.

  4. It is being re-tested continuously

    16.18.118.122:3128 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.

What kind of proxy is 16.18.118.122?

It speaks HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, and our checks grade it anonymous. The port is 3128. Point your client at 16.18.118.122:3128 over http to route a request through it.

Where is 16.18.118.122 located?

Traffic through it exits from Zurich, Switzerland, on Amazon.com, Inc. (AS16509). That is where the destination site will think your request came from.

How fast is 16.18.118.122:3128?

It answered in 1597ms on the last check. Free public proxies are shared, so real-world speed varies with how many other people are using it at the same moment.

How reliable has 16.18.118.122:3128 been?

Is it safe to use 16.18.118.122:3128?

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.

How many free proxies are on Amazon?

2,335 other free proxies are live on Amazon (AS16509) in our pool right now, alongside 16.18.118.122:3128. 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.

16.18.118.122:3128 has answered 100% 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).
