Struggling With Limited IP Rotation – Need SIM Card Recommendations for Mobile Proxies

Hello,

I want to create a mobile proxy farm, but I’m unsure where to get the right SIM cards.
For example, I tried using Vodafone SIM cards preloaded with unlimited data for 7 days, but the IP address only changed 2–3 times at most, and they were always from the same range.
I tried switching to airplane mode, resetting the device, and even using a different phone, but I kept getting the same IPs.

How can I get access to more IP addresses, ideally from different subnets?

I’ve already tried Vodafone and Lycamobile. I’d like to use the iProxy service, but first, I need to find SIM cards that provide better IP rotation.

If you're serious about building a mobile proxy farm with solid ip rotation, the SIM cards and carriers you use can make or break your setup. vodafone and lycamobile are known for limited ip diversity, so it’s not surprising you’re seeing minimal changes. switching to carriers with dynamic ip pools like Deutsche Telekom in Germany can make a big difference.

try different phones and companies .

Try contacting IoT providers, they tend to give better deals and can adhere to some custom requests like a bigger ip diversity

If you want broader IP rotation, you should test SIM cards from different local carriers and compare how they assign IP ranges in various regions. Often, unlimited short-term data SIMs have limited pools, while prepaid regular SIMs can trigger more effective network session resets. Also, make sure your modem or device properly supports reconnecting to the network, not just restarting the phone. Paired with stable mobile proxies, you’ll get much smoother rotation and avoid bans more reliably.

If you’re stuck getting the same IPs even after switching phones and airplane mode, it’s most likely due to the SIM type and the carrier’s pool limits. Vodafone and Lycamobile are known for tight IP ranges ,not great for mobile proxy rotation.
What usually works better is prepaid SIMs from carriers with broader dynamic pools. In Europe, Deutsche Telekom or Orange FR often give better variation. Also, don’t just restart the phone ,the key is reconnecting the modem at the network level. Some devices let you do that via AT commands or API calls.
And yes, for serious farming, test across multiple carriers, regions, and phone models. You’ll quickly see which ones recycle and which actually rotate.
