Static residential proxies —
the same address every time

One IP registered to a consumer internet provider, held for the whole period you paid for. If you came looking for residential proxies that rotate, this is the other kind — and which one you need is decided by whether your work has to stay logged in.

Per IP, not per GB · Held for the whole period · 22 US carriers

Three things sold under the word residential

The word covers two different products and one duplicate name. Which of the three you meant decides whether anything on this page is useful to you.

Step 01

Static residential — this page. One address, registered to a consumer internet provider, yours for the whole period. It does not rotate between requests and it is not handed to another customer while you hold it. Billed per IP per month, so a heavy month and a light month cost the same. Buy this one if the work has to stay logged in: a profile you keep, a region you re-check, a session that runs for hours.

Step 02

Rotating residential — the other kind. A pool of addresses borrowed from real devices, changing as those devices join and leave, billed per gigabyte. It is good at spreading many short requests over many addresses, and fatal to a session: an address that changes mid-task reads to the site as a session hijack. It is a different product with a different price model, and it is not on sale here yet.

Step 03

ISP proxies — step 01 under another name. The name most sellers put in the URL for exactly this product. Nothing about the address changes with the name — same catalogue, same carriers, same prices — so pick whichever word you think in. The ISP proxies page is the same product written for the reader who already uses that term.

Three jobs a static address is wrong for

You need breadth, not continuity

Crawling a catalogue of a hundred thousand pages wants a hundred thousand vantage points, not one. A single address hitting one host at volume is the pattern rate limiting was built to catch, and no amount of registration quality changes that. Breadth is what the rotating pool is for, and buying a static address for it means paying per IP for something that needs per gigabyte.

Your volume is bursty and enormous

Per-IP pricing is a flat monthly line: predictable, and indifferent to whether you moved a gigabyte or fifty. That is an advantage when the load is steady and a waste when you need one enormous month and then nothing. Traffic here is unmetered rather than free — past 50 GB per proxy per month the concurrency limit drops from 100 sessions to 10, which is a ceiling on burst by design.

The check you face wants a household line

Some fraud systems look past the registration and ask whether the connection behaves like a home line — latency shape, time-of-day pattern, the presence of a real router. A server answering on an ISP-registered address will not imitate that, and we would rather say so here than have you find out after paying. What we sell is the registration and the stability, not a household.

How to tell whether an address is what it claims

Look up who owns the block

Any public whois or ASN lookup will name the organisation an IP belongs to and the autonomous system it is announced from. A static residential address should come back with a consumer internet provider — a company that sells home broadband. If it comes back with a hosting company, whatever it was sold as, it is a datacenter address.

Look at the neighbours

An address does not travel alone: it sits in a /24 with 255 others, and the reputation your target sees is partly theirs. Check what else in that block is visible, and whether the whole range is announced by the same provider as the single address you were shown. A block that is registered to a consumer ISP but populated entirely by proxy sellers behaves like what it is.

Test the target, not the tool

Proxy checkers score an address in the abstract; the only score that matters is what your target does when you connect. An address can pass every public checker and still be blocked on the one platform you need, and the reverse happens too. Run the real request during the refund window, which is why using the proxies does not void it.

The parts of the name, one at a time

Who owns the address
A consumer internet provider — Comcast, Frontier or CenturyLink, among the 22 named in the United States. That is the part that makes it residential.
Where the address lives
On server infrastructure, not on a device in someone's flat. That is what keeps it answering at server speed — and it is the part the word residential does not tell you.
What static rules out
Rotation. The address does not change between requests, or between sessions, or when you renew.
What you are billed for
The address and the period. Traffic is not metered at all; concurrency is — 100 sessions per proxy, dropping to 10 past 50 GB a month.
What dedicated adds
Nothing — it is already dedicated. Some sellers write dedicated residential for this same product; nobody else holds your address while you hold it.
Where it is available
74 countries, each with the provider named; the United States alone lists 22 carriers to choose from.

Frequently asked questions

The questions that come with this name rather than with the other one.

Is a static residential proxy the same as an ISP proxy?

Yes. One product, two names, and the market keeps both: of the vendors we measured, Decodo, IPRoyal and Webshare each publish a page under each name. The two searches share 43 % of their domains and none of their URLs, which is why both pages exist here too. ISP Proxies

Is it a real home connection?

No, and that is deliberate. The address is registered to a consumer internet provider, which is what a site sees when it looks up who owns the IP; the machine answering on it is a server, which is why it does not go offline when a household router is unplugged. If you need traffic that physically leaves a home line, that is rotating residential, and it is not on sale here yet.

What is dedicated residential?

A third name for the same thing. It stresses that the address is not shared, which is already true of everything on this page: while you hold an IP it is not in anyone else's pool and it does not go back between your requests.

Why per IP and not per gigabyte?

Because nothing here is metered by volume. You pay for one address for one period, so a heavy month and a light month cost the same and there is no overage line to discover on the invoice. Per-gigabyte billing belongs to the rotating product, where the pool is the thing you are renting rather than the address.

Does static mean the address never changes at all?

It means we never change it. Two things can: you can ask for a replacement when an address stops responding, leaves the country it was bought in, or gets blocked on a target you named — and if you stop paying, the address returns to the catalogue. Inside a period you have paid for, and across renewals you keep paying, it is the same address. Terms of Service

Does a website see any difference between static and rotating residential?

On a single request, barely: both resolve to a consumer internet provider when the site looks up the owner. The difference is visible over time, and time is what platforms actually judge. A profile that has connected from one address for four months looks like a person with an internet connection; the same profile arriving from a new city every session looks like a credential someone bought.

Will my address go to another customer when I stop paying?

It returns to the catalogue and can be sold again. That is worth knowing before you build a long-lived profile on an address you plan to stop renewing: the reputation you spent months accumulating on it stays with the address, not with you. Renewal keeps the address; a lapse does not reserve it.
