GrainOfSand 1 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Hi, I'm having some trouble with my proxy. When I test the proxy, I get a connection no problem. I can use tcpflow and listen on the port, however, when I launch DB client it freezes shortly after. Here is a screenshot that will hopefully plain enough and also the video guide I followed. I have forwarded the port on my route. Using Rasppi 4, have installed squid + apache2-utils FOGLDN proxy tester is showing that the status is OK on proxy. DB Client works just fine when using no client, however when I use my proxy it stalls as shown by tcpflow... Pic that hopefully helps a bit Video Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're setting this all up at the same house as your usual desktop PC you bot on, your IP will be the same and there is no point at all in this method. 2. Looks like squid default configuration is for HTTP proxies, which is needed for "buying Overpriced Retail Shoes Currently On Discount To Be Later Sold For More Than Discount Price But Less Than Original Overpriced Retail Price" on residential IP addresses, or for example selling your IP to sneaker buyers. This is different than SOCKS5 which is what you need for OSRS clients to communicate at all. Dunno about any of the technical stuff but check that this proxy is configured to the SOCKS5 protocol.

Pandemic 2703 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Hey there, the proxy must be of the SOCKS type, not HTTP(S). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am planning to set up rotating residential proxies in the future. 2. Thank you for the example, I will look into SOCKS5 protocol 13 hours ago, Pandemic said: Hey there, the proxy must be of the SOCKS type, not HTTP(S).

rogerlee 0 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Free proxy servers are an insecure, slow tool that can shut down at any time or lead to your account being blocked. They are suitable only for short-term use for personal purposes. If you need a reliable server without failures and high ping, choose paid proxies. This way, you will protect your computer/phone from hacker attacks and viruses, as well as from blocking your accounts. That's why I went the right way and buy residential proxy. Now I have no doubts about the safety of using my devices. Good luck and success to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
