## What does a Lille IP show that a France IP does not?

## How do I target Lille in the proxy username?

Append `-country-fr-city-lille` to the username from your dashboard. Country and city values are always lower case.

For a multi-step check, keep one Lille IP with `USERNAME-country-fr-city-lille-session-lille1-ttl-10`. Sticky sessions last up to 30 minutes (the IP can change earlier).

An IP lookup may show a nearby place such as Roubaix, Tourcoing, Villeneuve-d'Ascq and Mouscron (Belgium) instead of Lille: databases place suburban address blocks differently. Check the exit before you rely on it.

The European Metropolis of Lille borders Belgium; Roubaix and Tourcoing sit next to the Belgian town of Mouscron.

## Which networks serve homes in Lille?

Nationally, home broadband in France is led by Orange, SFR, Free (Iliad) and Bouygues Telecom; the sector is supervised by Arcep. Orange: Former incumbent operator; offers fibre and DSL.

Lille has no city-owned broadband network in our sources, so its homes rely on the national operators.

This describes the local market, not the networks our pool uses at a given moment. Read the ASN of your exit with an IP lookup, or keep the exit on one network with `-asn-<number>` ([ASN guide](https://eurocityproxies.com/targeting/asn/)).
