What exactly does a proxy IP speed test tool do?
Many people think that the proxy IP can be used as soon as it is installed, but in fact, the response speed and stability of different IPs vary greatly. Just like measuring the speed of the Internet to open speedtest, the proxy IP also needs a special tool to test the actual availability. For example, when you use the residential IP provided by ipipgo, you can screen out theLatency below 100mslines to avoid video jams or data capture failures.
Three Tips to Determine Whether a Speed Detection Tool is Reliable or Not
First look at the agreement support:A good tool must also support HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS5 protocol detection, like ipipgo client comes with a protocol compatibility detection module
Second look at the location:Only qualified if it can show the city and carrier where the IP is located, which is especially important for services that require precise location.
The third looks at dynamic monitoring:A truly useful tool will continuously record IP speed fluctuations, not single test results
test dimension | Qualifying standards |
---|---|
response time | ≤500ms |
success rate | ≥95% |
Bandwidth speed | ≥2MB/s |
Hands-on speed test with ipipgo
Open ipipgo client and find "IP Speed Test" module, check the countries and regions you need to test. It is recommended to select 5-10 IPs to do batch testing first to focus on:
- IPs with suddenly elevated latency are immediately excluded
- Automatic labeling with success rate lower than 90%
- Record quality IPs that are stable for more than 30 minutes
Measure the end do not rush to close, open the history to compare the data fluctuations in different time periods, you will find that some IP fast during the day and night card, which can be used ipipgoTimed IP switching functionAutomatic optimization.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I have to use a professional speed test tool? Can't I access directly from my browser?
A: Browsers can only test single connectivity, professional tools can detect real-time speed of 50+ IPs at the same time, and can also automatically exclude failed nodes.
Q: Is the free speed test tool reliable?
A: Many free tools on the market will secretly record IP data, it is recommended to use ipipgo this kind of provideLocalized Speed Moduleservice provider, the data does not go to a third-party server is more secure.
Q: How can speed measurement results be applied to actual business?
A: Import the standardized IPs into the whitelist, and set the "Smart Routing" rule in the ipipgo backend, so that the tasks with high latency requirements are automatically assigned with premium IPs, and the ordinary tasks use the spare IP pool.
Why should I go with the original speedometer tool?
There are two fatal problems with third-party tools: one is the inability to identify IP types (e.g., misjudging data center IPs as residential IPs), and the other is the inability to synchronize the service provider's latest nodes. ipipgo's client's built-in speed measurement module is directly interfaced to the API interface, and is able to accurately identifyDynamic Residential IP / Static Corporate IP / Mobile IPThree types, with test data accurate to the operator's base station level.
Tests have found that the business success rate of IPs screened with the original tool is 37% higher than that of third-party tools. ipipgo's resource pool covering 240 countries around the world is especially advantageous when it is necessary to test IPs in niche areas - you can even test the IP quality of mobile networks in specific cities in Africa.
