Why SFR specifically

Peak-hour speed leader

SFR's metropolitan capacity holds up at 8 PM when the other carriers slow down. The right choice for time-sensitive scraping and scheduled tracking jobs.

Dense urban coverage

Paris, Lyon and Marseille metros have multiple overlapping cells. Modems stay on full-strength 4G even during cell handovers.

Strong IP reputation

AS15557 is well-trusted by every modern anti-bot stack. Your egress passes without scrutiny on the vast majority of targets.

Mix with Orange

Most ProxyGlide customers running serious volume run a 50/50 SFR/Orange split — the SFR for throughput, the Orange for the highest trust score.

Where SFR wins

Throughput-bound French workloads.

SFR proxy FAQ

When should I pick SFR over Orange?+

Pick SFR when you care about raw throughput more than rural reach. SFR's network is densely overprovisioned in the major metro areas (Paris, Lyon, Marseille) and typically delivers the fastest peak-hour speeds of the four French carriers. For SEO, ad verification and scraping workloads concentrated on metro-targeting, SFR is often the best single choice.

What's SFR's IP reputation like for anti-bot evasion?+

Strong, but slightly behind Orange in the trust hierarchy. AS15557 is well-known to anti-bot stacks as a legitimate French mobile ASN, so requests pass without difficulty in the vast majority of cases. If you're working against an extremely aggressive target that's already burned every IP class, mixing SFR with Orange under one account is the standard recipe.

Does SFR cover rural areas in France?+

SFR has solid suburban coverage but its rural footprint is thinner than Orange's. For ProxyGlide's purposes this rarely matters — our SFR modems are hosted in metro Paris, Lyon and Marseille where coverage is excellent.

Can I request SFR specifically?+

Yes. Starter auto-allocates across the four carriers; Pro and Enterprise let you request SFR explicitly. Enterprise customers can configure a custom split (e.g. 50% SFR / 50% Orange) at onboarding.

What real-world speed should I expect on SFR 4G?+

30–150 Mbps download / 10–50 Mbps upload. Peak-hour throughput is typically the highest of our four French carriers — SFR has invested heavily in metropolitan capacity in recent years.
