The WikiProject on open proxies seeks to identify, verify and block open proxies and anonymity network exit nodes. To prevent abuse or vandalism, only proxy checks by verified users will be accepted. All users are welcome to discuss on the talk page, report possible proxies, or request that a blocked IP be rechecked.

  • If you've been blocked as an open proxy, please see: Help:blocked.
  • To report a proxy check or an incorrect block, see the #Reporting section.

Unwired Broadband[edit]

Pictogram voting wait violet.svg – A proxy checker has requested administrator assistance for action regarding the case below. The requested action is below.

209.54.32.0/20 · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google

Reason: These ranges no longer appear to be used for hosting; the ones listed here are registered to Unwired Broadband (AS33548), which is a residential and business ISP. wizzito | say hello! 20:54, 22 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I agree it looks like these blocks are now obsolete. It's been long since they were added, and they seem to have changed hands from hosting to broadband since. Awaiting administrative action: Please, consider unblocking these. MarioGom (talk) 22:42, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

45.167.1.43[edit]

Symbol comment vote.svg – This proxy check request is closed and will soon be archived by a bot.

Reason: suspicious edits in sockfarm infested pageants space, IPQualityScore comes through as 100% fraudulent, proxy ☆ Bri (talk) 04:22, 16 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

 Unlikely IP is an open proxy. Not impossible, but I see no technical signal suggesting it is a proxy. Closing. MarioGom (talk) 22:39, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

24.199.90.246[edit]

Pictogram voting wait violet.svg – A proxy checker has requested administrator assistance for action regarding the case below. The requested action is below.

Reason: this IP belongs to a web host (Digitalocean). M.Bitton (talk) 22:58, 15 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Please see the IP from the same range below. M.Bitton (talk) 23:08, 15 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • If this list is anything to go by, then blocking "24.199.64.0/18" should take care of this IP and the one listed above it. M.Bitton (talk) 23:08, 15 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Merged both cases. MarioGom (talk) 22:35, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Awaiting administrative action - Please, consider blocking 24.199.64.0/18 · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google as a webhost. Thank you. MarioGom (talk) 22:34, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

124.246.93.199[edit]

Symbol comment vote.svg – This proxy check request is closed and will soon be archived by a bot.

Reason: Suspicious edits Beyond My Ken (talk) 05:00, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

 Unlikely IP is an open proxy - it looks like a regular mobile IP. I see no evidence of proxies here. Closing.

211.222.3.1[edit]

Symbol comment vote.svg – This proxy check request is closed and will soon be archived by a bot.

Reason: Probable open proxy/zombie proxy. According to Shodan data has a MikroTik proxy on port 80, and a vulnerable PPTP endpoint on port 1723. Likely the same editor who has removed my last proxy report, though it was acted on by Ponyo. Sideswipe9th (talk) 23:47, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

IP was proxy blocked by Ponyo shortly after making this report. Sideswipe9th (talk) 23:50, 17 November 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Automated lists and tools[edit]

  • User:AntiCompositeBot/ASNBlock maintained by User:AntiCompositeBot is a list of hosting provider ranges that need assessment for blocks that is updated daily. Admins are encouraged to review the list and assess for blocks as needed. All administrators are individually responsible for any blocks they make based on that list.
  • ISP Rangefinder is a tool that allows administrators to easily identify and hard block all ranges for an entire ISP. It should be used with extreme caution, but is useful for blocking known open proxy providers. All administrators are individually responsible for any blocks they make based on the results from this tool.
  • IPCheck is a tool that can help provide clues about potential open proxies.
  • Bullseye provides information about IPS, including clues about potential open proxies.
  • whois-referral is a generic WHOIS tool.
  • Range block finder finds present and past range blocks.
