4G Mobile Proxy: 4G Network IP Proxy

What the hell is a 4G mobile agent?

Recently, a lot of friends who do data collection are asking, saying that now the website anti-climbing more and more ruthless, using the IP room will be blocked in minutes. At this time we have to move out of the 4G mobile proxy this savior - to put it bluntly is to use the real cell phone network IP to surf the Internet, and we usually brush the short video with the network is exactly the same.

Compared with the traditional server room proxy, 4G proxy has two hardcore advantages:Long IP survival time(After all, they're all used by real people),Fast address database update(Operators are adding new base stations every day). Especially for long-term data monitoring projects, using this can save a lot of trouble in changing IP.

Who needs this stuff in particular?

① Brothers engaged in e-commerce price comparison: to keep an eye on the price changes of more than a dozen platforms at the same time, it is not easy to trigger anti-climbing with 4GIP.
② do social account operation: raise the number of stage frequent switching IP, cell phone IP closer to the behavior of real people
③ Local life services: for example, to catch the business information of a certain city, the success rate is higher with the IP of the local base station.

What are the doors to look for when choosing a service provider?

There are quite a few 4G agents on the market, but there are also as many pits as a hornet's nest. Here takeipipgoAs an example (I've been using theirs for a little over half a year), I'll show you how to pick:

Special attention should be paid to the selection of products that canDesignated OperatorThe, like ipipgo can select mobile/Unicom/telecom individually, and some scenarios must use a specific carrier IP to be valid.

Hands-on with it.

Here's a chestnut in Python, suppose you want to capture an e-commerce platform:

import requests

 API interface for ipipgo (remember to change to your own account)
proxy_api = "http://ipipgo.com/getproxy?type=4g&count=1"

 Get fresh IP
def get_fresh_ip().
    resp = requests.get(proxy_api)
    return f"{resp.json()['ip']}:{resp.json()['port']}"

 Capture task
def crawl_data(url).
    proxies = {
        "http": "http://" + get_fresh_ip(),
        "https": "http://" + get_fresh_ip()
    }
    try.
        return requests.get(url, proxies=proxies, timeout=10)
    except Exception as e.
        print("Retrying with a different IP:", e)
        return crawl_data(url)

Focus on this.timeout settingThe mobile network can be jerky at times, so it is recommended to set it for about 10 seconds. If it fails 3 times in a row, you'd better pause for 5 minutes and try again.

Frequently Asked Questions QA

Q: Will I still be blocked with 4GIP?
A: As long as it is a real person operating frequency, basically stable as an old dog. But if you send 10 requests in 1 second, the divine IP can't save you!

Q: How long is the IP validity period to be changed?
A: Under normal circumstances, a single IP can be used for 2-6 hours. Suggest like ipipgo with automatic switching function, set every hour to change the safest!

Q: Can I specify a specific city?
A: must be able to ah! ipipgo background can be directly selected to the prefecture-level cities, but the smaller the city the less IP, do not choose too biased!

Q: Is this stuff legal?
A: As long as you do not engage in, serious business is perfectly fine. When choosing a service provider to confirm that there are formal qualifications, like ipipgo has the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology record

Three Tips to Save Your Heart

1. Don't fight when encountering the CAPTCHA, change IP and try again, often directly through the
2. The highest success rate is achieved between 2 and 5 a.m., when the network is not congested.
3. Prepare two sets of service provider accounts, ipipgo + backup, to prevent unforeseen circumstances

One last rant, 4G proxies are not a panacea, they have to be paired with a reasonable frequency of requests. It's like driving a car, you can't crash it upwards even if it's a good car. Think of ipipgo's IP pool as a reservoir of living water, and learn tofig. economy will get you a long wayThat's the way to go.
