How can I build my own 4g mobile proxies?

[Cavita]

I have some knowledge about this process, but I'm interested to learn if anyone has successfully achieved it and the specific methods, tools, and equipment they used.

One approach I'm aware of is using a mobile USB dongle connected to a computer and using CCproxy to turn the 4G dongle into a proxy. This setup allows for the management of up to 10 Instagram accounts with extensive activities such as liking, following, and more. However, I'm uncertain if this is the most optimal method.

To scale this operation, the necessary equipment would include a PC and potentially other tools or resources.



I am unfamiliar with the specific process of setting up a 4G mobile proxy on a VPS, aside from the requirement of using a service like No-IP. However, I wonder if an alternative approach would be to create virtual machines using 3proxy, which might offer a simpler solution.

I understand that you have several questions and are seeking hints and tips for this undertaking. Please note that I can provide general guidance, but keep in mind that this information is intended for personal use only.

Maybe you could get a cheap Raspberry Pi and use it to create a mobile hotspot with your phone. Then, connect to the Raspberry Pi and set up a proxy server on each one.

Yeah, but what about your monthly mobile data cost?

I’ve heard about this and I know it works, but it requires a lot of hardware for 10 dongles. It’s kind of like running virtual machines on one computer, but it’s still a good idea.

Yeah, but what about your monthly mobile data cost?

I'm in the UK, so it's probably the most expensive. There are plans for about £25 a month for unlimited data (though some limit speed), which comes out to £2.50 per proxy. I’ve also seen plans that let you have extra SIMs on the same package. But you're right—data usage is more important with a Data Centre Proxy compared to a Residential Proxy.

I'm actually working on something similar right now. What you’re talking about is a sim bank (or sim box) that connects to a GSM gateway.

Here's a link to one I found: https://en.antrax.mobi/products/simbox/ (I don’t have any personal or business ties to Antrax, and I haven't used their products, but they have a good description).

The sim bank itself is the easy part; the GSM gateways are the tricky part. As far as I know, there aren’t any 4G GSM gateways available yet. The key with GSM gateways is to have them spread out across the country (you could pay friends £10 a month to plug the box into their internet). The more you have, the harder it is for mobile networks to detect them.

In the system I'm designing (I don't plan to sell or rent it), I’ll be using LTE Cat 6 or Cat 9 boards. The problem is that in the UK, only EE has a Cat 9 network, and that’s only in London. For Cat 6 boards, expect to pay about $100 per chip, and for Cat 9, around $200.

You’ll need 5 to 10 chipsets for each GSM gateway, and you’ll be using multiple gateways. This might be overkill for a few Instagram accounts, but for the ticket brokerage business, it makes sense.

Is it not possible to use a USB hub with internet sticks?

This is next level, bro! It’s a high-end setup, and I think it’s more for big businesses. I’d be looking at 20 connections (10 proxies for each). I’ll check out the links you posted, but honestly, it’s giving me a headache just thinking about it! Amazing stuff!
