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.

Where this address sits

Right now our free pool holds 120 other free proxies on Alibaba, and 984 in United Kingdom. 8.211.195.173:992 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.

Alibaba (US) Technology Co., Ltd. is the 8th 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 12,211 addresses on AS45102, which is 1.6% of every address in the database and a substantial share of everything HProxy tracks. That makes it the 8th largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. 121 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 8.211.195.173:992

8.211.195.173:992 is in the live pool right now, and it stays there only for as long as it keeps answering.

  1. Port 992: System port

    Ports below 1024 are protected. On most systems you need administrator rights to open one at all. So whatever is answering here was set up by someone with full control of that machine, not by some ordinary program that happened to be running.

  2. 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 8.211.195.173:992 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.

  3. 3,786 checks, 214 answered

    That is 6% of the time, measured since June 23, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.

  4. It is being re-tested continuously

    8.211.195.173:992 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.

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).
