Residential, ISP, datacenter or rotating IPv6: which proxy for which job
What each of the four GhostConnect proxy types is, how it is billed and authenticated, what it is good and bad at, with live prices and limits.
One gateway, and a fresh IPv6 exit on every request that goes through it. You buy 100 to 5,000 concurrent threads for a term, at $0.012 per thread per day, and nothing else is metered: not requests, not bandwidth. Exits in Canada, HTTP, authenticated by password or by IP allowlist.
$ for i in 1 2 3; do curl -s https://ifconfig.me -x http://rotating.ghostconnect.io:20017 -U rJxYKRe2U:Yxa5WGCUkvP9km; echo; done 2001:db8:4a:1c::9f3e 2001:db8:4a:77::2b10 2001:db8:4a:e3::c04d
The rotating product is not a list of addresses. It is one gateway, one host and port with a username and password, and every connection you open through it leaves from a different IPv6 address. You do not manage the rotation, choose the exits or wait for a timer; you make requests, and no two of them share an address.
What you buy is capacity: the number of connections the gateway will carry for you at the same time, for a term. 100 to 5,000 threads, with exits in Canada, over HTTP.
$0.012 per thread per day, for terms of 7, 14, 30, 60, 90 days. The smallest plan, 100 threads for 30 days, costs $36.00; 500 threads for a week cost $42.00; 1,000 threads for 30 days cost $360.00. Requests and bandwidth are unlimited, so the price does not grow with how much you pull through it, only with how many connections you want open at once and for how long.
Renew for any of the same terms, or switch on auto-renew and the renewal is paid from your balance about a day before expiry. Terminate at any time; the remaining time is not refunded.
The gateway's host, port, username and password appear on the dashboard the moment the payment confirms, with a connection string ready to paste. The credentials work from any address. If you would rather not send a password from a server, allowlist its IP instead; that is optional, and the only place an address of yours is ever stored. Credentials can be reset from the dashboard or the API at any time.
HTTP only: there is no SOCKS5 on this product. Your client talks HTTP to the gateway, and the gateway reaches the target over IPv6.
Good for: mass requests to targets that reach over IPv6 and rate-limit per address. Search result collection, large crawls, availability monitoring across thousands of pages, anything where the point is that no two requests share an address and the bill should not depend on the number of requests.
Not for: anything that needs IPv4, SOCKS5, a sticky session or an exit outside Canada. A site that does not listen on IPv6 is unreachable through it, and a login that expects the same address twice will not get one. For rotation over IPv4 with sticky sessions, use a residential proxy; for one address that stays still, an ISP or datacenter proxy.
The network records the destination and the response status of each request, used to measure success rates, and nothing else. The address you connect from is never logged, and the content of what you send is not looked at. Your account is a random key with no name or email attached. The privacy page lists everything this site stores.
One connection open through the gateway at a time. A plan of 100 threads carries up to 100 connections at once; each of them leaves from its own IPv6 address.
No. The exits are IPv6 addresses, so the target has to be reachable over IPv6. For rotation over IPv4, residential proxies with rotating sessions are the right product.
Not on this product; every request leaves from a new address. Residential proxies offer sticky sessions of 1 to 1440 minutes.
Canada, the only region this product offers right now.
No. You pay $0.012 per thread per day, and that is the whole bill, whatever you pull through the gateway.
No, HTTP only. Residential, ISP and datacenter proxies all speak SOCKS5.
Your account is a random 32-character key, shown once. Pay in Monero, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum or USDT, or by card on Stripe's page. Nothing on the site asks who you are.
Four proxy types, four different trades between how real the address looks, what it costs and how long it lasts. The comparison guide puts them side by side.
What each of the four GhostConnect proxy types is, how it is billed and authenticated, what it is good and bad at, with live prices and limits.
What a card, each coin and cash by mail leave behind, how the balance works, and what happens when a crypto payment is late or short.
Email, name, payment identity, sign-up IP, access logs, API source and attachments: what most providers keep, and what GhostConnect holds instead.
A random key is the whole account. Pay in crypto or by card, and the credentials appear the moment the payment confirms. Nobody on file behind the exit.
