I want to get my home IP and be able to plug it into my iOS settings in the format of IP=12.34.56.78:1234 and be ready to roll, and use my HOME ip address to browse internet... so far EVERY tutorial out there is showing how to do ovpn or some other configuration that I need to do through a desktop browse, but I want this simplicity and I feel like the answer is right under my nose but I'm just too retarded to figure it out.... if anyone can help, idk, I'll shoot you some money cause I'm legit tired of browsing trying to find something I don't even know how to properly word in google...
 
why dont you setup a reverse proxy from squid
currently walking through a youtube tutorial for squid only to find out it's a f**king URL filter.... how do I do the reverse proxy whatever that means? will that get the Job done?
 
If someone is willing to help you for free, that's cool.
Other alternative is to post a thread in Hire A Freelancer.
 
Not clear on what you want, can't you just use your home network wireless connection?
Or is a home VPN what you want?

I'll just copypaste what I just asked on stackexchange:

I use GMT2, and it can ONLY connect to ip: port proxy servers and through those proxies, it goes to the instagram to do the botting there cuz you can't bot more than 2 accounts on one IP. And like the ip: port is literally the only format of proxy that this piece of shit supports. I want to do it for other people, but I don't wanna use paid proxys because you never know if they're good with instagram (if instagram blacklisted those), so the most reliable way to upscale my mini business idea is to use the GMT2 through THEIR (clients') IP address, meaning I need some sort of agent that gives my GMT2 at home a proxy service to literally do the instagram thing as if the GMT2 is in their office/residence.

Get it, right?

So, I can't use ovpn cause it requires a linux running command (GMT2 doesn't support) unless it provides a way to do it purely with ip: port, nor has my squid3 attempt succeeded. All I want it a raspberry pi, taking my HOME IP and broadcasting it to the rest of the world, (with username/pass authentication preferably) so I can connect to the web while outside my home network, and basically have google.com think I'm currently at home.
 
I hope you're not trying to offer a service in exchange for money !

He's (hopefully) gonna save me from another sleepless night. I literally got zero sleep last night trying to get this to work. It's morning and I still haven't slept for over 24 hours. At this point I don't even care about giving a bit of cash for help. I am really desperate at this point

You should care about abiding to the forum rules, especially as you are here asking for help.

I suggested earlier you should open a Hire A Freelancer thread if you intended to offer payment. ( You didn't do this ).

Regular members are not allowed to solicit / offer services or sell on this forum unless they have upgraded thir account.

As much as you need this sorting, you're not above the rules of the forum, so maybe you should care about that.

you'll be a good mod when they promote you. idk you but I'm lowkey proud of you.

Sorry officer, I won't speed again
 
I don't need any reward, just tell me what router and equipment you have at home and I will see if I can help.
you're awesome... I have raspberry pi and 2 routers: dlink dir817lw (the cheaper one that I'd prefer using instead of the main one) and the main one - linksys WRT3200 acm

OK, you could set up the VPN on the Linksys as it has a VPN feature or you set up a VPN on the Raspberry Pi connected to the Dlink

You could flash new firmware to the router too

Depending on your ISP you might need to set up a DDNS/Dynamic DNS

EDIT: I think we have been discussing different things and what I have posted is not what you want.
I don't use GMT2but if you wanted to use your clients IP addresses then you would need to set up servers at their end.

It will probably be easiest for you to buy some residential proxies to use for your clients.

K, you could set up the VPN on the Linksys as it has a VPN feature or you set up a VPN on the Raspberry Pi connected to the Dlink
raspberry pi and dlink is a more preferable option because it'll still be cheaper than the WRT3200

strange.... I thought I need a static IP to make it work..??

Already did, I know for sure I need a proxy. I need a proxy. Proxy is the only thing you connect to with the ip: port format

It might even be easier for you to set up a Remote Desktop Connection or use Team Viewer
I already got VNC on my raspberry pi and laptop. I might just end up buying separate machines to run GMT2 on at the physical location of my clients

would need to set up servers at their end.

It will probably be easiest for you to buy some residential proxies to use for your clients.

I gladly would, it's just there's no way to be absolutely sure that the ip address I get wasn't messed with, so it's a constant gamble/much more work to be done. Using the clients' IP addresses gives an absolute peace of mind that those proxies are residential, as well as not shared with anyone else botting.



you feel bro? I'm still endlessly grateful for you taking your time to help though :)
