How HProxy checks 191.223.220.23:8888
HProxy has checked 191.223.220.23:8888 458 times and it answered 104 of those. Here is what each of those checks actually did.
46 public sources published it
191.223.220.23 appears in 46 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 8888: HTTP, alternate
Port 8888 is another widely used unprivileged HTTP alternate. It is also the default for several debugging proxies, so addresses here are often development tooling that was left exposed.
Every check is a real connection
HProxy does not read this address off somebody else's list and pass it on. Each check opens an actual connection to 191.223.220.23:8888 and waits up to 4 seconds for the other end to complete a proxy handshake. 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.
458 checks, 104 answered
That is 23% of the time, measured since July 22, 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. 191.223.220.23:8888 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 3, 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.

Questions about 191.223.220.23:8888
Is 191.223.220.23:8888 a working proxy?
No, not any more. It was a working public proxy in HProxy's free pool and has since gone dark, last listed 2026-07-27. We still re-test it periodically in case it returns.
Was 191.223.220.23 ever actually a proxy?
Yes. We ran 458 checks against it and it answered 104 of them, about 23% of the time, over 5 days on our list.
Where was 191.223.220.23 hosted?
Brazil — IPv4 address block not managed by the RIPE NCC. 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.
Are there other free proxies in Brazil?
Yes, 173 free proxies are exiting from Brazil in our pool right now, answering in 1908ms 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).
