What's the point of a Singapore cloud node IP anyway?
Recently many of my friends have been asking what's so special about the Singapore node's proxies. Let's put it this way, Singapore has three hardcore advantages as a Southeast Asian network hub:Ridiculously low latency(Physical proximity to Southeast Asian countries),have ample bandwidth(Undersea fiber optic cables are not for show),policy easing(You know). For example, friends doing cross-border e-commerce, with Singapore IP login store background can avoid wind control; hand game players hanging nodes to play the new horse service, the delay can be pressed to 50ms or less.
Choosing the wrong type of agent = wasted money
There are three common pit configurations on the market:
1. Take the data center IP for the e-commerce account - second blocking
2. Hanging long-term tasks with a dynamic IP - disconnected for three days or more
3. Cheap to buy shared IP - the result is blocked by the peer chain
// Example of the correct opening position (Python)
import requests
proxies = {
"http": "socks5://sg01.ipipgo.com:3000",
"https": "socks5://sg01.ipipgo.com:3000"
}
resp = requests.get("destination URL", proxies=proxies, timeout=10)
Hands-On Deployment Guide
Key Seven Steps:
1. Go to the official website of ipipgo and choose the [static residence] package (don't ask why you don't choose dynamic, as we will see later).
2. Generate API keys in the user center
3. ping the node with their online testing tool (focusing on packet loss <2%)
4. Client configuration is recommended to turn off IPv6 (many programs prioritize IPv6 resulting in proxy failure)
5. Setting the automatic switching threshold (automatic IP switching with a delay of more than 200 ms)
6. Remember to turn on global mode (some browser plug-ins hijack proxy settings)
7. Run traffic detection scripts before first use (to prevent DNS leaks)
Avoiding the Pit: The QA Collection
Q: Why do you recommend static residential IPs?
A: Dynamic IP is cheap, but every time you reconnect, you have to log in again, doing e-commerce operations can give you a whole crash. Although static IP is more expensive, but 35 dollars can be used for a month, which is cheaper than drinking milk tea.
Q: What should I do if the connection always times out?
A: 80% of the time, the protocol wasn't chosen correctly. Remember the mnemonic:
Web Browsing → Priority HTTPS
Game acceleration → must use Socks5
Crawler → Directly on HTTP
| Package Type | Applicable Scenarios | prices |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic residential (standard) | Short-time data acquisition | 7.67 Yuan/GB |
| Static homes | Long-term account operation | 35RMB/IP |
What about special needs?
Don't be a fool and switch manually when you have to manage hundreds of IPs at the same time for the big guys. Use ipipgo's API with this script to automatically assign IP resources:
Batch IP Extraction Script (Shell Version)
API_KEY="your key"
COUNT=50 Number of IPs to be extracted
curl -X GET "https://api.ipipgo.com/v1/ips?country=SG&type=static&count=${COUNT}"
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${API_KEY}" > ip_pool.txt
Lastly, I'd like to talk about a tawdry operation: installing the proxy client in your home router, so that all devices connected to WiFi can automatically go to the Singapore node. Specific tutorials go to ipipgo's document center search [Merlin firmware configuration], follow the copy homework on the line.
