Indigo and 4G/5G connection

Overview

For effective account management in Indigo, using different IP addresses for each browser profile is crucial. While proxies are commonly used, 4G/5G mobile connections offer an alternative approach.

Important Note

Unlike proxies that can assign different IPs to individual profiles, a 4G/5G connection changes the IP for your entire device. In this case, we recommend running one profile.

Connection Types Comparison

Feature	4G/5G Connection	Proxy Connection
IP Change Scope	Entire device	Individual profiles
Launching Profiles	Recommend one profile	Multiple profiles
Setup Complexity	Simple, requires mobile device/modem	Requires proxy configuration

Using Mobile USB Proxy Farms

You can enhance your setup using a mobile proxy farm with USB dongles:

• Each dongle functions as a separate proxy
• Requires unique configuration:
  • IP address
  • Port number
  • Username
  • Password

Setup Guide

Basic Connection Setup

1. Connect your device to:

   • Mobile hotspot
   • USB modem
   • 4G/5G router

2. Launch a browser profile

3. Verify your IP address:

   • Use IP checking service
   • Ensure new IP is assigned

IP Rotation Methods

Mobile Hotspot

1. Enable Airplane mode
2. Wait 30 seconds
3. Disable Airplane mode
4. Reconnect to hotspot

Router/Modem

1. Disconnect power from device
2. Wait minimum 5 minutes
3. Reconnect power
4. Wait for connection to establish

note

The required disconnection time varies by ISP. Some providers may take longer to assign a new IP address.

Best Practice

Always verify your new IP address after any rotation method to ensure the change was successful.
