Figuring out what's going on with home broadband SOCKS5 proxies
Those of you who pull broadband at home may not know that your own network can actually be converted into aDedicated Proxy Server. The principle is to turn the broadband into a transit station through which other devices access the Internet. Unlike ordinary proxies, the SOCKS5 protocol supports a wide range of network requests, and is particularly suitable for devices that need to beLong-term stable connectionscenarios, such as data collection or multi-device management.
Here's a pitfall to be aware of: most home broadband is given toDynamic Public IPthat changes every so often. That's when it's time to rely onipipgo's dynamic domain name serviceto bind, their home resolution speed is more than 3 times faster than the free, later will say exactly how to operate.
Hands-on building environment
List of required materials:
1. an old computer / Raspberry Pi that can be turned on 24 hours a day (the system selected Ubuntu or CentOS)
2. broadband cat to change the bridge mode (call the operator customer service said to open the public IP)
3. Prepare a secondary route dedicated to proxy (to prevent the impact of other devices at home)
Don't be in a hurry, check the broadband type first:
| Broadband type | Recommended or not | prescription |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic Public IP | ★★★★★ | Dynamic resolution with ipipgo |
| IP address of intranet | ★★★ | Apply for a public network or change carriers |
Real-world installation steps (with a guide to avoiding pitfalls)
Dante is recommended here as a server, much simpler than Squid:
Ubuntu installation
sudo apt-get install dante-server -y
The configuration file focuses on these three changes
internal: 192.168.1.100 port = 1080 Proxy server internal IP
external: public IP Here we put the dynamic domain name provided by ipipgo.
method: username none It is recommended to enable password authentication.
A lot of people can't connect to it after half a day of tossing and turning, and 80% of them areFire prevention didn't work.. Remember to open port 1080 on both the router and the system firewall and check with this command:
telnet your domain name 1080
Dynamic IP's life saver
The biggest headache of home broadband is the old IP change, which is when theipipgo's DDNS service就派上用场了。他们客户端支持Windows和Linux,自动检测IP变化。实测更新No more than 30 seconds, nearly twice as fast as one brand.
The configuration method is mega simple:
After downloading the client and executing
. /ipipgo-ddns -k your API key -d custom domain .ipipgo.pro
Frequently Asked Questions QA
Q: What should I do if the agent suddenly fails to connect?
A: First, look at the domain name resolution status of the ipipgo console, and then use thenetstat -tulnpChecking port listening
Q: What should I do if my upload speed is limited?
A: 80% is operator QoS, switching in the background of ipipgoport shuntingmode, spreading the traffic to different ports
Q: How do I get multiple proxy ports?
A: In the Dante configuration add multipleexternalsegments, each corresponding to a different ipipgo subdomain name
Why do you recommend ipipgo?
Self-tossing agents fear two things the most:IP instabilityrespond in singingSpeed hips. The real test with ipipgo, the agent survival rate from 67% to 92%, their originalIntelligent Route SwitchingIndeed cattle. Especially friends who do data collection, with their API can realize the automatic replacement of IP, the degree of worry directly doubled.
Recently discovered a hidden feature: the console opens theTraffic camouflage modelAfter that, the proxy traffic looks like normal web browsing, and it has been tested to bypass the protocol detection of 90%. Specifically how to play the game you can find their technical customer service to configure the template, remember to report the code word "home broadband special" have additional discounts.
