DNS not matching Proxy

Instagram can detect that DNS is from ISP or Cloudflare while IP is from proxy, what is the solution?

In theory you can resolve DNS via the proxy by querying DNS servers via the proxy.

But no software supports this method. So just buy other proxies and ask for a trial and check for dns leaks.

what proxy service are you using?

Proxypremium, do you have a web site? What did you use for the first screenshot?

Mobile proxies should be much harder to identify by IG if applied correctly, barring certain conditions. IPs from those should float right under their radar since it comes directly from ISPs.

Use DNS over HTTPS (DoH) or DNS over TLS (DoT): These are newer technologies that essentially encrypt your DNS traffic. In addition to providing additional privacy and security, using DoH or DoT makes it more difficult for Instagram to know where your DNS requests are being resolved, as the requests are sent over HTTPS or TLS to the DNS server, obscuring their origin.

To use DoH or DoT with your proxy:

1. Check if your Proxy Provider Supports DoH/DoT: Not all proxies support these technologies out of the box. BrightData, for example, has an option to enable DoH. Make sure to check your provider's documentation or reach out to their support for details.
2. Configure Your System or Browser to Use DoH/DoT: Many modern browsers, like Firefox and Chrome, support DoH and can be configured to use it. If your browser doesn't support it, or if you're not using a browser (for example, if you're scraping Instagram using some sort of script), you might need to configure your system to use DoH or DoT. This process varies depending on your operating system.

Please note that this method isn't foolproof. Instagram might still be able to detect that you're using a proxy through other means. Also, using DoH or DoT might not be ideal depending on your situation. For example, it could potentially slow down your DNS queries, which might not be acceptable if you're doing something like high-speed scraping or sneaker copping.

One possible solution is to try using a different proxy or VPN service that is not currently detected by Instagram. You can also try adjusting the settings of your current proxy or VPN to make it less detectable. However, these solutions are not guaranteed to work and may even be considered unethical or against Instagram's terms of service.


Another option is to use the platform without a proxy or VPN, and instead try to work with your ISP or network administrator to resolve any network restrictions or issues that may be preventing you from accessing Instagram. This may involve requesting changes to your network settings, or seeking alternative ways to access the platform, such as through a mobile device or public Wi-Fi network.
