Mobile Proxy by the Day: Choose Your Own Modem

You can now choose the exact modem your mobile proxy port moves to, and IP and location changes that used to fail are fixed.

1 min read

What changed: you can now choose the exact modem your port moves to. Open your port: right below where you pick the country, state and carrier, you will see every modem in that state, free and busy, and how often each one changes its IP. Choose a free one and apply. Close to 300 modems are free across our mobile network right now.

We also fixed IP and location changes that failed. A change now waits for the new modem to come online instead of giving up after a few seconds, and the new IP usually starts working within 30 to 70 seconds.

Good to know

  • If you leave it on automatic, we still pick the best free modem for you.
  • Busy modems are listed so you see the full count, but you cannot move to one.
  • Ports on the same modem share its IP, and the list shows which modems your other ports are on.

What to do

If an earlier change failed, try it again; no settings need updating, and your host and port stay the same. For plans and pricing of 4G/5G ports, see mobile proxies.
