## Where is a Melbourne static IP actually hosted?

Melbourne is Australia's second interconnection hub: on 19 October 2026 PeeringDB listed six exchanges, led by MegaIX Melbourne (135 networks) and IX Australia Melbourne (103), and eight colocation facilities. An ISP proxy for Melbourne is an address registered to an Australian broadband provider, announced from a server in a datacenter. ISP (static residential) IPs are registered to consumer internet service providers but run on servers in datacenters, not on home devices.

## What do teams use a Melbourne static IP for?

A Melbourne IP is used to check Victoria results: local search, delivery promises for Victorian postcodes, state-specific ads and services that differ between New South Wales and Victoria. One fixed address per workflow keeps the results comparable from one day to the next, because the exit IP is not part of what changes. Melbourne shares Sydney's time offset and daylight saving dates; the Australian Bureau of Statistics estimated Greater Melbourne at 5,350,705 people on 30 June 2024.

## How do I confirm a Melbourne IP after delivery?

Look the IP up in two geolocation services: both should name Melbourne or a nearby place, and the registered network should be an Australian provider. Databases can disagree, because each one weighs the network's registration, its geofeed and its own measurements differently. Rent one IP first, check it, then rent the rest. Availability varies by country; the checkout shows what is online.

## Melbourne static proxy questions

### Will a Melbourne IP show Sydney prices?

National Australian prices are usually the same. Delivery times, store stock and state-based offers can differ, so test one request from each city before buying several IPs.

### Which exchanges are in Melbourne?

On 19 October 2026 PeeringDB listed MegaIX Melbourne (135 networks), IX Australia Melbourne (103) and EdgeIX Melbourne (74) among six exchanges in Melbourne.

### Is a Melbourne ISP proxy a home connection?

No. It is an address registered to an Australian consumer ISP, running on a server in a datacenter, which is what most sellers call a static residential proxy. It stays the same for 30 days and goes to one customer, at $2.24 per IP.
