How this one compares

It worked sometimes, for 78 days, and then it stopped.

Every free proxy list quotes an uptime figure. Almost none of them tell you what a normal one looks like, so here is ours: across the 3,495 proxies answering right now, the middle of the pack answers 15.6% of the checks we send it.

613

real connection attempts

Each one opens a socket and waits up to 90 seconds. Slow and dead look identical if you stop listening early.

days from first sighting to last answer

Of the 192,041 free proxies we have watched stop working, half were gone within 28 days of us first seeing them.

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.

Continuous monitoring

How HProxy checks 206.123.156.219:12820

HProxy has checked 206.123.156.219:12820 613 times and it answered 19 of those. Every one of those was a real connection attempt, never a lookup.

  1. 5 public sources published it

    206.123.156.219 appears in 5 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.

  2. Port 12820: Registered port range

    This port sits in the middle range, where any ordinary program can listen without special permission. The number itself carries no reserved meaning, which tells you somebody picked it on purpose instead of accepting a default.

  3. 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 206.123.156.219:12820 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.

  4. 613 checks, 19 answered

    That is 3% of the time, measured since May 13, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.

  5. We are still watching for it to come back

    Being archived does not stop the testing. 206.123.156.219:12820 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 9, 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 no other free proxies on LimitedNetwork-AS, and 44 in Iran. 206.123.156.219:12820 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.

LimitedNetwork-AS is the largest single source of published proxy addresses 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 227,266 addresses on AS213790, which is 38.6% of every address in the database and one of the largest single concentrations in the entire database. That makes it the 1st largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. None of them are answering at the moment, though every one stays in the re-check rotation in case that changes.

Questions about 206.123.156.219:12820

Is 206.123.156.219:12820 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 30, 2026. We still re-test it periodically in case it returns.

Was 206.123.156.219 ever actually a proxy?

Yes. We ran 613 checks against it and it answered 19 of them, about 3% of the time, over 3 months on our list.

Where was 206.123.156.219 hosted?

Iran, LimitedNetwork-AS (AS213790). 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 LimitedNetwork-AS?

None other than 206.123.156.219:12820 at the moment. AS213790 (LimitedNetwork-AS) has no other free proxies live in our pool right now, though that changes as we re-verify.

Are there other free proxies in Iran?

Yes, 44 free proxies are exiting from Iran in our pool right now, answering in 3538ms at the median. If this address is not usable, that list is the place to look for a working one.

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). Full details on the report abuse page.
