How do I ask for a PTR record?
A reverse lookup turns an IP into a name. For IPv4 the query goes to the in-addr.arpa domain with the address written backwards, and any resolver tool will build that for you: give it the IP and ask for the PTR record.
ProxyJam sells Lumina Broadband static residential (ISP) IPs under Rochester, from $5.38 per IP per month, each held for the whole paid period. The reverse DNS hostname of an IP is set by its holder, and some targets read it.

City helps you pick a provider; the IP's exact city is not guaranteed.

Holders of address space typically give their IPs generic reverse names, often a pattern built from the IP itself. A generic name is not a fault; it is what you should expect to see.
Reverse DNS has long been used in anti-spam checks, where a server looks at the hostname as well as the IP. If your target reads it, the PTR record of your IP matters more than the label on our form.
The IP is fixed for the period, so the hostname you checked at the start is the one to compare against if a target's behaviour changes later.
ProxyJam gives no description of Lumina Broadband as a business. Our catalogue records a name, a price and where the row is listed; we found no source we would cite about the business behind the name.

ProxyJam does not promise that the IP surfaces in Rochester. Choosing Lumina Broadband is the whole of the choice; the IP is issued from that carrier's pool, and the city it surfaces in is not something we commit to.
ProxyJam makes no prediction about the hostname of your IP, and an IP may have no PTR record at all. Look it up once the IP is issued; the answer comes from whoever holds the address.
ProxyJam does not promise that a reverse name can be changed: this page promises nothing about reverse names. If your work needs a particular one, ask support before you order rather than after. Contact ProxyJam
