What the hell is a cell phone proxy?
Many people are confused when they first hear about cell phone agents, which is actually, to put it bluntly, theMobile network IP addresses generated with cellular base stationsto access the Internet. Unlike home WiFi, which has a fixed IP address, 4G/5G IP addresses are like a Sichuan opera actor who can change his face, and may change to a new face every time you connect to the Internet. For example, if you swipe a short video on the subway, the IP address may be automatically updated every few stops.
This feature is especially suitable for scenes that require frequent IP switching. For example, Lao Zhang, who does short video operation, changes the IP of different regions every time he uploads a video, so that the platform will not suspect that it is a machine operation. Another example is Xiao Wang, who does e-commerce data monitoring, using a real cell phone IP to collect the price of competing products is much more reliable than using the IP of the server room.
Why does it have to be a mobile IP?
A normal proxy IP is like wearing overalls to work, while a mobile IP is like going to the store every day in different civilian clothes. Here is a comparison table for you to see:
| comparison term | Traditional Agents | Mobile Agent |
|---|---|---|
| IP Type | Server room/data center | Real cell phone base stations |
| Shelf life | Hours to days | Automatic replacement by flow rate |
| recognition difficulty | Easily tagged | harder to recognize |
| network latency | Usually 50ms or more | Around 20-40ms |
Here's the kicker.IP purityThis thing. A lot of websites have now learned the hard way, and when they see server room IPs, they are like thieves. But the mobile IP are ordinary users are really using, just like the fish mixed into the school of fish, can not tell who is who.
Hands on with ipipgo!
Here is an example of the Android side of ipipgo, to say how to do it:
1. After downloading and installing, do the real-name authentication first (required by the state)
2. Select the [Dynamic IP] type on the package page.
3. Enable [Smart Switch] mode
4. set the conditions for IP replacement (recommended switching by traffic)
5. Remember to test whether the IP is effective after starting the proxy.
When you encounter a connection failure, first check theAPN settingsIf this is correct, some phones will default to the WAP access point and have to be changed to the NET mode. Some cell phones will default to WAP access point, you have to change to NET mode in order to use. ipipgo customer service has recently added a remote assistance function, you can directly ask them for help if you really can't figure it out.
These scenarios are useful
Name a few real user cases:
1. Ms. Li, a local life service provider, logged into her account in bulk with different city IPs to check the display effect of Meituan stores in different regions.
2. cross-border e-commerce Lao Zhou, with overseas buyers IP test their own independent site loading speed
3. Do data collection of small teams, for three consecutive months every day for 500 + IP crawl job site information
Special reminder: use mobile IP as a crawler to control the frequency of visits, do not think that you can do whatever you want after changing the IP. It is recommended to cooperate withrandom delayFor feature use, the ipipgo backend can be set to randomize wait times from 0-5 seconds.

A: Common HTTP/HTTPS/Socks5 can do. Do game business friends note that some UDP protocols need to open separate permissions.
One last piece of cold knowledge: when using a 5G agent, put the phonedeveloper modeIf you turn on the "Always turn on mobile data" in ipipgo.com, you can reduce the problem of IP switching when the flow is cut off. This tip is not written in the tutorial of ipipgo, it is a hidden benefit for everyone!
