Where this address sits

How many free proxies are on IR-THR-PTE
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 41 addresses on AS49100, which is 0.01% of every address in the database and a small corner of the database. 3 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 5.202.197.66:9050
5.202.197.66:9050 is in the live pool right now, and it stays there only for as long as it keeps answering.
Port 9050: Tor SOCKS default
Port 9050 is the Tor client's default SOCKS port. Something answering here is offering a way into the Tor network rather than an ordinary proxy hop.
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 5.202.197.66:9050 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 HTTP.
59 checks, 20 answered
That is 34% of the time, measured since August 17, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.
It is being re-tested continuously
5.202.197.66:9050 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.

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).
