Proxy check FAQ for beginners

Why can a VPN be missed?

VPN providers rotate addresses and can use ordinary residential or cloud networks. No IP-only detector can identify every VPN with certainty.

Does a hosting IP always mean VPN?

No. Websites, game servers, business systems and VPN gateways all use hosting networks. Hosting is supporting evidence, not proof.

How is Tor detected?

Known Tor exit addresses are refreshed from the Tor Project and matched against the exact IP.

What does inconclusive mean?

It means there is not enough reliable evidence to say yes or no. It should not be read as a clean guarantee.
