[DIY] How To Create Your Own 4G Proxy

how to rotate ip?
Login to the router admin page (https://192.168.8.1 in my case) and disconnect+connect (can be automated with a little scripting). 4g connectivity gives you a brand new IP address every time you reconnect.
 
Hi i'm a beginner so i have a few questions .

If i understand correctly i need to have a 4g subscription in every sim card ?

I want to have like 20-30 proxies for a game so i have to buy 5 raspeberry ? There is no other way that would be less costing ?
 
Why bother with RPI? Get refurbished 4th gen i5 + USB hub and you can host as much proxies as you want on it..
 
So if you dont mind me asking, I am trying to scrape about 66 million google search results lmao. And at current rates of waiting 17 seconds per pagination itll take about 5 months. sadly i want this data to be updated monthly (rip me). What I'm wondering is if I host these lets say 12 proxies, can i use the first 6 until its 429'd then go to the second 6 and re-ip those first 6 so that it keeps switching between those 2 raspberry pis and theoretically i should be able to search every few tenths of a second. im a bit curious in the cost department but im sure i can make it work.
 
It's a great tutorial. Now I can open 5G proxies service.
 
Do you know a dashboard for 3proxy where customers can log in and book and pay for proxies themselves?
 
will this have any effect on my home routers wifi? Will it work normally for others in my household or slower ? sorry newbie here when it comes to proxy
 
Hi guys, question:
1 raspberry 1 dongle?

If I need 20 ips, do I need to buy 20 raspberrys + 20 dongles?
 
Thanks for the guide. A few issues as always on the way. (thats just how it is with those things). But finally something starts to click. Now just improve upon it :)
 
I tried to use on cointainer but I'm stucked:
Nothing happens after it: Let's start the proxy

On VM it works. but in a lxc container it not :/ Any clue?

Can you share more about this?

It's just advice of:
get a used pc with got CPU instead of raspberry pi -> host much more proxies on this one device -> profit

Can be a good idea, although it brings a single point of failure to the equation.
But if you wanna scale to hundreds, RPI is not the way.

+1000.

RPI is too expensive for serving just 1 modem. In fact it can serve 1..3 modems with ease and up to 8 modems (when the modems are almost idle ).

It's also possible to run proxies on cheap routers with USB support like TP-Link MR3020 after reflashing them with OpenWRT. So 1 cheap router serves 1 modem - it is economically fair.
 
Hi,

I am developing a 4G proxy service on RPB and encountering challenges with managing SIM IP updates.

Our system utilizes Huawei E3372h USB modems to enable data connectivity through the SIM cards.
The current process to acquire a new IP address requires rebooting the modems, which takes about a minute.
We need a method to rapidly disconnect and reconnect the service similar to toggling airplane mode on a smartphone that prompts the operator to assign a new IP more quickly.

Is there a method to accomplish this without a full modem reboot?

I have one question, let's say i connect this raspi on my home network. will the proxy use my network to transmit data or just to fetch proxy?

What i mean, if my 4g Dongle uses lets say 10mbps/s, does this traffic go to client pc with proxy via my home network or directly through dongle?
Thanks in advance.
