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 74.220.199.6:80
74.220.199.6:80 has been through 3,831 checks on HProxy's list, answering 2,436 of them. Few addresses in the database carry a record this long.
3 public sources published it
74.220.199.6 appears in 3 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 80: HTTP
Port 80 carries ordinary web traffic, the unencrypted kind. Something answering as a proxy here is nearly always a web server configured to forward requests on to somewhere else.
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 74.220.199.6:80 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.
3,831 checks, 2,436 answered
That is 64% of the time, measured since June 18, 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. 74.220.199.6:80 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 12 hours. Its last check was on September 13, 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 4 other free proxies on Unified Layer, and 18,886 in United States. 74.220.199.6:80 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.
Unified Layer is the 202nd 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 209 addresses on AS46606, which is 0.03% of every address in the database and a small corner of the database. That makes it the 202nd largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. 4 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 74.220.199.6:80
Is 74.220.199.6:80 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 August 11, 2026. We still re-test it periodically in case it returns.
Was 74.220.199.6 ever actually a proxy?
Yes. We ran 3,831 checks against it and it answered 2,436 of them, about 64% of the time, over 54 days on our list.
What is the hostname for 74.220.199.6?
Its reverse DNS record is parking.bluehost.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 74.220.199.6 hosted?
United States, Unified Layer (AS46606). 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 Unified Layer?
4 other free proxies are live on Unified Layer (AS46606) in our pool right now, alongside 74.220.199.6:80. 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 United States?
Yes, 18,886 free proxies are exiting from United States in our pool right now, answering in 6638ms 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).
