How HProxy checks 31.70.78.110:8888
HProxy has checked 31.70.78.110:8888 493 times and it answered 300 of those. Every one of those was a real connection attempt, never a lookup.
49 public sources published it
31.70.78.110 appears in 49 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 common stand-in for port 80, and the default for several debugging and proxy-inspection tools. Seeing it usually says more about the software than about the host.
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 31.70.78.110:8888 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.
493 checks, 300 answered
That is 61% of the time, measured since July 11, 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. 31.70.78.110:8888 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 12, 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 IONOS, and 261 in Germany. 31.70.78.110:8888 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.
This is the joint network for IONOS, Fasthosts, Arsys, 1&1 Mail and Media and 1&1 Telecom. Formerly known as 1&1 Internet SE. is the 152nd 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 249 addresses on AS8560, which is 0.04% of every address in the database and a small corner of the database. That makes it the 152nd 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 31.70.78.110:8888
Is 31.70.78.110:8888 a working proxy?
No, not any more. It was a working public proxy in HProxy's free pool and has since gone dark, last answering on July 15, 2026. We still re-test it periodically in case it returns.
Was 31.70.78.110 ever actually a proxy?
Yes. We ran 493 checks against it and it answered 300 of them, about 61% of the time, over 4 days on our list.
What is the hostname for 31.70.78.110?
Its reverse DNS record is ip31-70-78-110.pbiaas.com. That is what the address itself publishes about who operates it, which is often more telling than the network name: hosting providers name their machines by region and instance type, and a residential line usually carries its ISP's own pattern.
Where was 31.70.78.110 hosted?
Germany, This is the joint network for IONOS, Fasthosts, Arsys, 1&1 Mail and Media and 1&1 Telecom. Formerly known as 1&1 Internet SE. (AS8560). 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 IONOS?
1 other free proxy is live on IONOS (AS8560) in our pool right now, alongside 31.70.78.110:8888. 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 Germany?
Yes, 261 free proxies are exiting from Germany in our pool right now, answering in 3993ms 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).
