IPinfo – IP Data Provider

University networks introduce real-world variability: high churn, mixed devices, shifting traffic. That’s exactly the kind of environment ProbeNet is built to measure and verify. If you’re working in a university environment and this is something you’d want to be part of, feel free to send us DM! #IPIntelligence #InternetMeasurement #NetworkInfrastructure

@LibreQoS Thanks! More to come!

@ipinfo Great job, guys!

Adding new PoPs only matters if it improves how you measure. For security teams, that means understanding how IP data behaves as infrastructure shifts, IPs rotate, and abuse evolves. ProbeNet added 67 PoPs in Q1 to improve that visibility. hubs.ly/Q04fwZsm0 #IPIntelligence #CyberSecurity #NetworkInfrastructure

For anyone interested in digging deeper into the tiered internet access in Iran, this recent piece does a great job unpacking the broader context and implications. It also includes observations from IPinfo’s internet measurement data alongside researchers across the space. coupecircuit.org/internet-pro-p…

During Iran’s internet shutdowns this year, the internet didn’t disappear equally. Our ASN-level measurements show major consumer networks collapsing while parts of the state backbone, academic infrastructure, and select cloud provider networks continue to respond near pre-collapse levels. The result is effectively a two-tier internet: • Public internet access remains heavily restricted • Certain privileged networks stay connected Read our research on Iran’s divided internet landscape in 2026: ipinfo.io/reports/iran-i… #InternetMeasurement #InternetInfrastructure #Iran

Ok so I'm doing some science with some cool tools from @ipinfo I'm just doing some testing, but this should be fun! more to follow in the future!

The IPIDEA residential proxy takedown didn’t remove the problem. Our research found: • 92.7% of IPIDEA-affiliated IPs overlapped across providers • 46% of all residential proxy IPs appear in multiple networks at the same time • 78% rotate before reputation systems can act The same IP no longer maps to a single source and that changes how detection needs to work.

We shipped a lot in Q1. From opening up ProbeNet Live for real-time internet measurement, to expanding our global footprint of PoPs and adding new precision layers like IPinfo Places, this video walks through everything that launched.

ProbeNet just expanded into Georgetown, Kentucky 🥃🐎 New PoP in bourbon country, adding depth to real-world internet measurement across the U.S. #IPIntelligence #NetworkInfrastructure #InternetMeasurement

In your experience, is IP reputation still pulling its weight in modern abuse detection? #IPIntelligence #CyberSecurity #FraudDetection

When IPIDEA was disrupted, most people focused on the takedown. We looked at what happened underneath and found an ecosystem that doesn’t disappear, it reorganizes. In our latest research, we break down how residential proxy infrastructure actually behaves and why it’s harder to disrupt than it looks.

Relying on geolocation or a single detection flag misses most of the picture. In our webinar with Dark Reading, Ben Dowling, IPinfo Founder and Co-CEO, breaks down how IP signals behave across VPNs, proxies, and residential infrastructure, with real examples of how residential proxy IPs disappear after a takedown only to resurface across providers.

Together with AbuseIPDB, we analyzed 260M+ IPs. 53% of actively abusive IPs are tied to VPNs or residential proxies. We uncovered where that abuse concentrates, how quickly IPs rotate, and why infrastructure context changes the picture.

New ProbeNet PoP: Boca Chica, Dominican Republic. More coverage means better measurement in regions where network visibility is often limited. Stronger signals for routing, latency, and validation across the Caribbean. #NetworkMeasurement #IPData #InternetInfrastructure

IPinfo measures how the internet behaves in real time.
 New ProbeNet data shows Iran’s internet reachability dropped ~99% twice in 2026, with connectivity still under 1% of peak as of April 6.
 When infrastructure shifts, measurement matters.

That’s the approach behind IPinfo’s data. Powered by ProbeNet, our internet measurement platform. Stop trusting the number. Test it yourself. ipinfo.io/probenet/live 👆Run real-time measurements from ProbeNet’s global points of presence and see how an IP actually behaves across the internet.

So what holds up instead? A single percentage can’t capture how the internet behaves. What works is continuous measurement across real-world networks, with multiple signals validating results over time.

Can “99.8% accurate” IP data actually be trusted? It sounds precise and scientific, but once you look closer, it becomes difficult to interpret and even harder to validate. Here’s why 🧵 #IPGeolocation #NetworkData #Cybersecurity
