What is a StarHub proxy?
Every public IP address belongs to a network, and every network has an autonomous system number (ASN). When a website looks up your address it sees the ASN and the organisation behind it. For StarHub that is AS4657. A StarHub proxy is a proxy whose exit address belongs to that network, so the website sees a StarHub address and not a hosting company.
Cable broadband customers usually receive a dynamic address that the provider can change, so a real subscriber's address is not fixed for years. Websites know this, which is why cable ranges tend to be treated as ordinary home traffic.
Cable networks serve a very large number of households per region, so their address space is large and varied. That is useful when you want an address that looks like a typical consumer connection and not a hosting range.
In practice most buyers do not need one particular operator. They need an address that is registered in the right country and looks like consumer or carrier traffic. That is the reason ISP proxies exist: they sit on hardware in a datacenter but use addresses registered to an internet service provider. The distinction matters because some websites treat hosting ranges more strictly than consumer ranges.
StarHub ASN numbers
The table lists the main autonomous system numbers we associate with StarHub. Large operators announce several ASNs and acquire or reassign them over time, so use the list as a starting point and confirm with a public registry such as RIPEstat, ARIN or bgp.he.net before you depend on a number.
| ASN | Operator | Country | Network type |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS4657 | StarHub | Singapore | cable broadband provider |
StarHub and Singapore proxy types in stock
To get a Singapore exit you order Singapore IPs. Here is what the Singapore catalog holds today: the proxy types we sell, how many package options each has, the lowest per-IP price and the rental periods on offer. Nothing on this table is estimated, it is read from the same catalog the order form uses.
The cheapest option for Singapore is Datacenter Proxy IPv6 at US$0.08 per IP for 3 days. Longer periods are usually cheaper per day, and most types let you rent a single IP, so you can start with one address and add more later.
You can combine types in the same account. A team might rent Datacenter Proxy IPv4 addresses for fast public-data work and add ISP Proxy where a destination treats ISP-registered or less crowded addresses better.
| Proxy type | Package options | From (per IP) | Rental periods |
|---|---|---|---|
| Datacenter Proxy IPv4 | 13 | US$0.70 | 1 week to 12 months |
| Datacenter Proxy IPv6 | 14 | US$0.08 | 3 days to 12 months |
| ISP Proxy | 8 | US$3.50 | 1 week to 12 months |
Can I choose StarHub exactly?
ProxyOnly sells proxies by country, not by operator. That means you can rent Singapore addresses, including ISP proxies where they are in stock, but we do not promise that an address belongs to StarHub in particular. The suppliers behind Singapore stock decide which ranges they hold.
If StarHub specifically matters, rent one address first, look up its ASN with a registry or lookup tool, and compare it with AS4657. If you need a guaranteed operator, contact us with your use case and we will tell you honestly whether we can supply it.
Why teams ask for StarHub addresses
Searches for StarHub proxies come from a handful of recurring needs. None of them require an address from one specific operator, but an address from a network like StarHub helps with all of them.
Matching real subscribers. A page that treats datacenter ranges differently from consumer or carrier ranges can only be checked fairly from an address that looks like a cable broadband provider subscriber in Singapore.
Local verification. Ads, prices, search results and app listings are often different for visitors in Singapore. A Singapore address registered to a well-known operator shows what a local customer of StarHub sees.
Stable identity. ISP proxies keep the same address for the rental period. That is helpful for tests that need a consistent address over days, such as checking a login flow you own or following a long support case.
Fewer surprises. Addresses from large, long-established operators are widely recognised by websites and databases, so their country and network labels are rarely wrong.
How to check that an address belongs to StarHub
Do not trust a label, check the address. After you receive a proxy, run it through the proxy tester on the ProxyOnly home page to see the exit IP and country. Then look the IP up in two different lookup tools and read the organisation and ASN fields.
- Copy the exit IP reported by the proxy tester.
- Look it up in a public ASN or IP lookup tool and note the ASN and organisation.
- Compare the ASN with AS4657 for StarHub.
- Check a second lookup tool, because geolocation and organisation data are not identical across databases.
- Repeat with a second address if the first does not match what you need.
What a proxy for Singapore is used for
People look for a Singapore proxy for practical reasons, almost all of them about seeing a public website the way a local visitor sees it. These are the jobs we hear about most.
Local search and SEO checks. Search results are personalised by country. To audit rankings for Singapore, load the public results from a Singapore address, compare what appears for .sg domains and local-language queries, and check that hreflang, local business listings and country pages do what they should. A clean address with no logged-in history gives you a fair baseline.
Localization and QA testing. Product teams use a Singapore exit to test what a customer in Singapore actually experiences: the interface language, date and currency formats, the phone format (+65), cookie banners, payment options and any features switched on or off by country. Sticky sessions keep one address while a tester writes up a bug.
Market research on public data. Researchers read public pages the way a local visitor would: listings, directories, public review pages and government or company sites that vary by country. Using a Singapore exit shows the version of the page meant for Singapore. Collect only what you are allowed to collect, respect robots rules and rate limits, and keep your own notes in your own tools.
App store and content availability. App stores, software downloads and media catalogues differ by country. A Singapore address lets you check whether an app is listed for Singapore, which price and currency the store shows, and whether a public download or landing page is available there. It is a read-only check: you still need to follow the terms of the service you are testing.
Brand and reputation monitoring. Brand teams watch how a name appears on public pages in Singapore: local news sites, regional marketplaces, comparison pages and review sites. A Singapore exit makes sure the pages you review are the ones local visitors get, in Chinese, English, Malay and Tamil, rather than a version redirected for your own location.

A proxy is a networking tool and it is lawful in most places, but what you do with it still has to be lawful and fair. Follow the laws that apply to you and to the place you send traffic to, read the terms of the sites you visit, honour robots rules and rate limits, and never use an address to access accounts or data that are not yours. ProxyOnly cannot give legal advice, and our acceptable use policy applies to every order.
In practice that means reading public pages, checking your own sites and ads, and testing your own products. If a task would be unwelcome to the site owner when done by hand, it is unwelcome when done through a proxy too.

Frequently asked questions
What is the ASN of StarHub?
The main autonomous system number we associate with StarHub is AS4657. Large operators announce several ASNs and change them over time, so confirm with a public registry before you rely on one.
Do you sell StarHub proxies?
We sell Singapore proxies by country and do not guarantee a specific operator. ISP proxies are in stock for this country, so an address registered to a local ISP is likely, but test the ASN before you rely on it.
What is the difference between an ISP proxy and a datacenter proxy?
A datacenter proxy uses an address registered to a hosting company. An ISP proxy runs on datacenter hardware but uses an address registered to an internet service provider, so it looks more like consumer traffic. ISP proxies cost more and suit sites that are strict about hosting ranges.
Can I buy a proxy in Singapore?
Yes, you can rent Singapore proxies from ProxyOnly. We currently list 3 proxy types for Singapore: Datacenter Proxy IPv4, Datacenter Proxy IPv6, ISP Proxy.
How much does a Singapore proxy cost?
Prices for Singapore start at US$0.08 per IP for 3 days. The final price depends on the type, the number of IPs and the rental period, and longer periods work out cheaper per day. The order page shows the exact total before you pay.
Which proxy type should I use for Singapore?
For most public-data work Datacenter Proxy IPv4 is the practical default. If the site you are testing is strict about hosting ranges, try ISP Proxy instead. Rent one address first and check your success rate before you scale up.
Can I choose a city in Singapore?
We sell by country, so the address is registered in Singapore. Whether it resolves to Singapore depends on how the supplier registered it and on the geolocation database you check, so we do not guarantee a city. Rent one IP, test it, and ask us if you need city-level accuracy.
How do I check that my proxy really shows Singapore?
Use the proxy tester on the ProxyOnly home page: it connects through your proxy and reports the exit IP, the country and the latency. You can also open any public IP lookup page through the proxy and compare the country with SG.
How do I pay and how fast is delivery?
You add funds to your balance in cryptocurrency, starting from one US dollar, and pay for each order from that balance. Orders are delivered to your dashboard with the host, port, username and password. Delivery time depends on the supplier for the type you choose.
