Columbia Residential HTTP Proxy | Switching IP on request UDP support

What problem does the Columbia Residential HTTP Proxy solve?

For scenarios that require frequent switching of network identities, ordinary proxies are prone to triggering platform risk control. Columbia Residential HTTP Proxy simulates the real online behavior of local residents through real home broadband IPs. For example, when managing multiple store accounts in e-commerce operations, the IP address is automatically changed for each request, which can effectively avoid account association risks.

ipipgo offers Colombian residential agents covering major cities such as Bogotá and Medellín, supporting theIP switching by request level. When it is necessary to collect public data, every time you visit the target website, you will get a brand-new Colombian residential IP. With the high-speed transmission characteristics of the UDP protocol, it is especially suitable for business scenarios that require fast switching and maintaining stable connections.

How do I implement a change of IP per request?

Traditional proxies need to switch IPs manually, while ipipgo's dynamic residential IP pool supports obtaining new IPs in real time via API. after setting the proxy authentication parameter in the code, unused IPs will be automatically called from the IP pool before each request is sent, with specific configuration examples:

 proxies = {
    "http": "http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.com:端口",
    "https": "http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.com:端口"
 }

The key thing to keep in mindsession holding mechanismSettings. If the business needs to maintain the same IP for multi-step operations, you can set the IP retention period for a fixed length (e.g., 5 minutes); for scenarios that require immediate switching, you can replace it immediately by adding a specific logo to the request header.

Why do I need UDP protocol support?

The UDP protocol has unique advantages in the following 3 areas:
1. Lower latency: packets can be sent without establishing a connection
2. Higher throughput: suitable for scenarios such as video streaming, real-time communication, etc.
3. Better compatibility: support for special terminals such as IoT devices

ipipgo's full protocol support allows users to freely choose TCP or UDP according to business needs. during the test of the Colombian proxy, the UDP protocol was used for video streaming test, the latency was reduced by more than 40% compared to TCP, and the packet loss rate was controlled within 0.3%.

Frequently Asked Questions QA

Q: How long do Colombian IPs survive?
A: Dynamic IP default single-use duration is 3-15 minutes, static IP can be kept unchanged for 24 hours. It is recommended to use dynamic IP for data collection and static IP for live streaming and other scenarios.

Q: What should I do if my IP is blocked by the target website?
A: ipipgo provides a real-time IP health monitoring system that automatically replaces new IPs from a pool of 90 million IPs when an IP anomaly is detected, so users don't need to do it manually.

Q: How to verify if the proxy is a real residential IP?
A: The IP inspection interface provided by ipipgo allows you to look up the ASN number, carrier information and geographic location of the IP. A true residential IP will show up as a local network service provider (e.g. Colombia Telecomunicaciones).

Why choose ipipgo's Colombian agent

Distinguished from ordinary data center proxies, ipipgo's residential IPs are sourced from local home broadband, providing a higher level of credibility:

• Precise city targeting: support for designating 20+ cities such as Barranquilla, Cali, etc.
• Operators to choose from: including Tigo, Movistar and other major providers
• Compliant data access: strict adherence to Colombia's data privacy regulations

Through actual testing, it is found that when using ipipgo proxy to access local mainstream websites, the loading speed is 2.8 times faster than ordinary proxy, and there is no CAPTCHA interception. For business that requires high-frequency access, it is recommended to turn on theSmart IP Rotation ModelThe system will automatically optimize the IP allocation strategy according to the response speed of the target website.
