How this one compares
Reliable enough to sit in the top quarter of everything we are watching.
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 3,733 proxies answering right now, the middle of the pack answers 15.2% of the checks we send it.

Of the 192,861 free proxies we have watched stop working, half were gone within 28 days of us first seeing them.
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 no other free proxies on M247, and 355 in France. 88.218.196.229:443 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.
M247 is the 38th 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 1,304 addresses on AS9009, which is 0.22% of every address in the database and a meaningful pocket of the database. That makes it the 38th largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. None of them are answering at the moment, though every one stays in the re-check rotation in case that changes.

How HProxy checks 88.218.196.229:443
88.218.196.229:443 is in the live pool right now, and it stays there only for as long as it keeps answering.
Port 443: HTTPS
Port 443 carries encrypted web traffic. It is the last port any network will block, because blocking it breaks almost everything else, and that is exactly why proxies get put there.
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 88.218.196.229:443 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, which is how we know it spoke HTTP.
27 checks, 17 answered
That is 63% of the time, measured since August 12, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.
It is being re-tested continuously
88.218.196.229:443 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.

Upgrade to the paid network
Free proxies fail. This is what that looks like.
88.218.196.229:443 answers 63% of the time, and that is ordinary for a public proxy. Nothing here is a service anybody sells you, which is why the numbers swing and why the list turns over constantly.

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).
