See whether your connection looks like a proxy, VPN, or datacenter IP rather than a normal home network.

A proxy or VPN routes your traffic through another server, so the IP websites see belongs to that server rather than your home connection. Many of those servers sit in datacenters, which is why hosting networks are a strong signal that traffic isn't coming from a regular household.
Want more detail? Run a full VPN check, test for WebRTC leaks, or see your complete IP and connection report.
We look at whether your IP belongs to a hosting or datacenter network, is flagged as a proxy, or matches a known VPN provider. Home and mobile connections usually come back clean.
Because you're using a VPN or proxy, or your ISP routes you through a datacenter range. Some business and mobile connections also trip these signals.
Not for you directly, but some websites limit or block traffic from datacenter and proxy IPs. If a site keeps challenging you, your IP's reputation may be the reason.
