So, I’ve bought mobile proxy’s from oxylab to pretend I’m in the USA. I post in Germany. I manage my proxy’s with the superproxy app.
So everything is really really slow. Sometimes I need several hours with breaks to upload one reel. I read that you have to test several mobile proxy’s, but that sounds really annoying to me. I’m an Onlyfans model and testing proxy’s isn’t something I wanne do…
Is there anything I can do to improve the speed? Or any recommendations for good proxy’s?I tried different proxy app and superproxy was the only app, where the proxy runs.
 
If you're set on staying geo-masked, maybe try a higher-quality 4G/LTE proxy from a provider like Proxidize or Airproxy and they tend to be more stable and faster. Also, uploading during off-peak hours sometimes helps. Totally get that testing proxies is a pain, especially with your line of work.
 
That’s frustrating. If the speed you're getting isn’t anywhere near what was advertised, you should definitely reach out to the provider. Most legit ones will either fix the issue or replace the proxy for you.
 
Mobile proxies can be slow due to shared bandwidth. Try premium 4G/5G proxies with low user loads, or contact Oxylabs support to switch to faster IPs. Also test on off-peak hours, it can help!
 
Mobile IPs are super trusted, but speed is rarely their strong suit especially if the provider overloads IPs or rotates too aggressively. Not saying that's the case with Oxy, just an observation in general. See if they offer static session control or allow you to test different endpoints. Some providers will give you more stable or faster subnets if you ask so there's that. It's also good to see if it's an issue with the setup or the proxy itself and being able to try out other ones should give you some grasp over that.
 
Mobile proxies are naturally slower, especially when routing through distant locations like the US from Germany. If speed is critical, try an EU-based residential proxies. They’re often faster and still provide good trust for platforms like OnlyFans. You can also ask your proxy provider for dedicated or less-congested mobile IPs to improve performance without constant testing.

You can switch to residential proxy. Actually, using a proxy will affect the loading speed of the network, unless you use a datacenter proxy, then the upload speed will be fast. But using a datacenter proxy is not as secure as a residential proxy or a mobile proxy.
 
Bandwidth is limiting the speed. Have you tried other residential proxies?
 
One thing that could help is switching to proxies with lower rotation intervals (instead of rotating every request). You could also try proxies that offer 4G/5G from Tier 1 carriers (like Verizon) they’re way faster and more stable.
