How this one compares
It was one of the good ones, for 4 days.
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 5,864 proxies answering right now, the middle of the pack answers 14.8% of the checks we send it.

Most recent re-test
HProxy has opened 469 real connections to this endpoint in total. The sweep reaches every address in the database roughly once every 24 hours.
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.

How HProxy checks 51.254.133.152:8000
HProxy has checked 51.254.133.152:8000 469 times and it answered 130 of those. Every one of those was a real connection attempt, never a lookup.
23 public sources published it
51.254.133.152 appears in 23 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 8000: HTTP, alternate
Port 8000 is one of the standard stand-ins for port 80. Development servers and device admin tools default to it constantly, so it is one of the busiest alternate web ports there is.
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 51.254.133.152:8000 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, so a proxy is never missed because we guessed the wrong protocol.
469 checks, 130 answered
That is 28% of the time, measured since June 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. 51.254.133.152:8000 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 14, 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 21 other free proxies on OVH, and 319 in France. 51.254.133.152:8000 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.
OVH is the 18th 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 3,285 addresses on AS16276, which is 0.55% of every address in the database and a meaningful pocket of the database. That makes it the 18th largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. 21 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.

Questions about 51.254.133.152:8000
Is 51.254.133.152:8000 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 June 26, 2026. We still re-test it periodically in case it returns.
Was 51.254.133.152 ever actually a proxy?
Yes. We ran 469 checks against it and it answered 130 of them, about 28% of the time, over 4 days on our list.
What is the hostname for 51.254.133.152?
Its reverse DNS record is vps-344ec80b.vps.ovh.net. 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 51.254.133.152 hosted?
France, OVH (AS16276). It is a datacenter address, not a home connection.
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 OVH?
21 other free proxies are live on OVH (AS16276) in our pool right now, alongside 51.254.133.152:8000. 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 France?
Yes, 319 free proxies are exiting from France in our pool right now, answering in 619ms at the median. If this address is not usable, that list is the place to look for a working one.

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).
