Last updated 27th July 2008 Well, as I recently discovered, there are actually a lot of TPG proxies. The transparent proxies are actually different to the main proxies. Main TPG proxies Melbourne proxies nme-nxg-pr1.tpgi.com.au – 220.245.179.130 Sydney proxies syd-nxg-pr1.tpgi.com.au – 220.245.178.131 Brisbane proxies bri-nxg-pr1.tpgi.com.au – 220.245.180.130 Perth Proxies Canberra proxies If you're on a transparent proxy, you can find out which one you're on by going to http://www.daniel15.com/stuff/php/testproxy.php and looking at 'Proxy Server Details' |

as i predicted downloading off rapidshare is extremely hard now , always when i try to download something "you have already downloaded xx" no matter what proxy you try . Before you posted this list rapidshare was a easy to download off (cause i knew all the proxies) obviously not many other people did until now.. |

Well, as I recently discovered, there are actually a lot of TPG proxies. The transparent proxies are actually different to the main proxies. I'm just writing up this list which will (eventually) have all the TPG proxies listed. Currently, I only know about the Sydney, Melbourne, and main TPG proxies. |

It all depends on TPG's backhaul provider. Proxies with "pow" are using Powertel backhaul, proxies with "nxg" are using Nexgen backhaul. |

Question is, do the backhaul providers have their own transparent proxies in the chain??? |

What would be the best proxy to use for a Mackay resident. (north Queensland). Will specifying a proxy make internet browsing faster? if i don't currently have problems with the proxy business should i bother specifying one? i basically just want the best browsing speed. |

PS. what site? But seriously, I'm getting various script style attempts of abuse on a domain I run – and the headers left only seem to have various TPG proxy addresses in it. Unfortunately I don't have a choice but to wipe out the proxy ip's. I can't spend time on hunting the party down, and it seems that abuse@tpg doesn't seem to answer. |

And if thousands of websites and forums (included Daniel's site) can use a simple script to find the real IP address, there's no reason you can't. The fact that you can't shows that you're a pretty terrible admin and it's amazing your managing any kind of domain. |

I got sick of trying to find a good 'low-latency' proxy, so I wrote a small C# script to test the latency of each proxy in my area: http://64.22.121.101/TPGProxyLatency.zip It's a quick hack, so tread carefully. Test urls in the 'url.txt' files, and add/change the test proxies from the 'proxies.txt' file. As always, comes with the classic disclaimers around its usefulness and reliability. Feel free to improve the code and repost etc. |

Yeah noticed that too ;) I might take another look at the ranking/averaging code tomorrow, see if I can smooth out the results. Was also thinking of emitting a proxy.pac file with the ranked results, so firefox/IE can automatically pick up the best proxy result. |

Some people think its faster if they manually specify one. lol.. not quite correct...changing the proxy setting from the deafult/no proxy (which lumbers you with whatever TPG dishes up at the time to your IP) makes the difference between being able to load a site or not. Simply: no/auto proxy...= timeouts manually change = can load site. For those of us who DO suffer from random issues in accessing some sites, changing proxy is vital to having a functional web..please don't trivialise the issue by suggesting it's a placebo effect, you clearly have no appreciation of the frustration or understanding of the technical issues. |

This test is very handy and clearly shows issues with the transparent proxy versus picking the best one. Well done. A proxy.pac script to pick the best would be fantastic. Usually for me the transparent proxy is O.K. but at times (like for the last two weeks) I can get MUCH better speeds by picking my own proxy manually. To automate this process would stop the need for this whole thread on this forum and TPGs own and probably thousands of TPG sufferers would be eternally grateful. I know I would! |

Done. I've added the proxy.pac support in the latest version. Re-download from http://64.22.121.101/TPGProxyLatency.zip. You need to specify the proxy.pac file as a command line option though: TPGProxyLatency.exe /proxyPacFile:c:\proxy.pac To point to the generated proxy.pac, in Firefox go to Tools->Options->Advanced->Network->Connection Settings then click "Automatic Proxy configuration URL" and type in the following: For Internet Explorer: Tools->Internet Options->Connections->LAN Settings then click "Use automatic configuration script" and type in the following: file://c:/proxy.pac (notice one less forward slash). There's a problem with this however: if you re-run the TGPProxyLatency proggy while IE or firefox is running it *wont* pick up the new settings from the proxy.pac file – you need to restart in order to absorb the new changes. If there's serious interest from the community, I might be willing to invest some time in to a Firefox/IE plug-in that automagically does this in the background... We'll see how many downloads it picks up I guess... cheers |

FWIW, TPG if you’re listening: there’s something wrong with your transparent proxy setup. While I don’t need to run the script all the time (proxy load seems to be a problem come > 10pm here in Brisbane), it does seem like a serious failing that I need to run something like this at all. Ironically, scripts like this are likely a disservice to the community. If you’re load-balancing algorithms don’t take any notice of the load on your squid proxies, then we’re essentially screwing you by going direct. Having said that, I’m secretly hoping this becomes an annoying forcing function on you guys to fix it. I’m not hating on you TPG, I’m a fan of yours. But please, let’s get this sorted. |

One thing that I have noticed is that if there is a proxy that your program cannot connect to the resulting pac file that is output will use that unreachable proxy. In my case that unreachable proxy was nme-pow-pr1.tpgi.com.au – 202.7.176.130 at the current time. |
