When you need to change your IP address to a Hungarian one you don’t have many alternatives as if you were looking for a US IP, UK IP or French IP. But there are still several options that I am going to present below. Thus you will be able to log in to forums, web chat rooms, on Facebook, Snapchat, etc. as a Hungarian user.
What is a Hungarian IP address?
A Hungarian IP address is an IP that is assigned to an ISP or hosting provider that provides Internet services in Hungary. The most common Hungarian IPs have the following format:
- from 84.0.0.0 to 84.3.255.255 (Magyar Telekom)
- from 89.132.0.0 to 89.135.255.255 (UPC Magyarorszag)
- from 84.224.0.0 to 84.225.255.255 (Pannon GSM Telecommunications)
- from 91.82.0.0 to 91.83.255.255 (Invitel Tavkozlesi)
- from 80.98.0.0 to 80.99.255.255 (UPC Magyarorszag)

3 Ways to get a Hungarian IP address
1. Use Web Proxies
Web proxies are very simple to use and you don’t have to install anything on your computer or device. Just visit the proxy, type in the desired URL and press the Go or Submit button. Thus, the site will be loaded from the IP of the proxy, not from your IP address. The major problem of web proxies is the speed that is quite low.
In order to find such web proxies you may Google on “Hungarian web proxy” and you will surely find what you need. Take, webproxy.hu for example.

2. Manually change your IP using paid or open proxies
Another option to consider is to manually change the public IP of your computer/device. Go to sites that list proxies (e.g. SamAir.ru), find a proxy from Hungary and then change your browser’s settings to use that proxy.
