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.

Continuous monitoring

How HProxy checks 89.185.80.78:1082

HProxy has checked 89.185.80.78:1082 958 times and it answered 670 of those. Every one of those was a real connection attempt, never a lookup.

  1. 61 public sources published it

    89.185.80.78 appears in 61 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.

  2. Port 1082: Registered port range

    This port sits in the middle range, where any ordinary program can listen without special permission. The number itself carries no reserved meaning, which tells you somebody picked it on purpose instead of accepting a default.

  3. 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 89.185.80.78:1082 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.

  4. 958 checks, 670 answered

    That is 70% of the time, measured since July 10, 2026. Every one of those results, successes and failures alike, is a connection HProxy opened itself.

  5. We are still watching for it to come back

    Being archived does not stop the testing. 89.185.80.78:1082 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 August 23, 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 12 other free proxies on GCS AS, and 3,305 in United States. 89.185.80.78:1082 sits inside that set, so if it is not usable the pages below are where its closest alternatives are.

GCS-AS is the 138th 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 288 addresses on AS215540, which is 0.05% of every address in the database and a small corner of the database. That makes it the 138th largest source of free proxies of every network we have ever seen. 12 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 89.185.80.78:1082

Is 89.185.80.78:1082 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 July 20, 2026. We still re-test it periodically in case it returns.

Was 89.185.80.78 ever actually a proxy?

Yes. We ran 958 checks against it and it answered 670 of them, about 70% of the time, over 10 days on our list.

What is the hostname for 89.185.80.78?

Its reverse DNS record is 170428.ip-ptr.tech. 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 89.185.80.78 hosted?

Phoenix, Arizona, United States, GCS-AS (AS215540). 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 GCS AS?

12 other free proxies are live on GCS AS (AS215540) in our pool right now, alongside 89.185.80.78:1082. 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, 3,305 free proxies are exiting from United States in our pool right now, answering in 1055ms at the median. If this address is not usable, that list is the place to look for a working one.

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).
