A guide to avoiding the pitfalls of using ipipgo
Friends who have used the proxy service should have encountered this situation: obviously show a successful connection, but the web page is not open. At this time, do not rush to scold the service provider, first check these three places:
1. whether the port number in the browser plug-in has been filled in correctly (ipipgo defaults to port 9021)
2. account password is not directly copied from the official website, pay attention to the front and back do not have spaces
3. 本地防火有没有放行代理端口
If that doesn't work, go directly to ipipgo's online customer service, they respond pretty quickly.
