Guide to building Software routers and IP Proxies: Improving the efficiency of network operations

With the growing demand for Internet, the concept of Software router is becoming familiar to the public. For individuals, businesses or technology enthusiasts, Software router not only provides highly flexible network management, but also allows users to realize more complex network operations by configuring Proxies IP. It transforms into a powerful router through a software-defined router system, typically used on low-power computing devices such as a Raspberry Pi or a mini-PC running Linux, with the addition of specific router software (e.g. OpenWRT, LEDE, etc.).

In this article, I'll provide a comprehensive introduction to Software routers, discuss how to improve network efficiency through Soft Routing with Proxies IP, and provide concrete steps to follow.

What is a Software router?

Software routers and hard routes are two common routing methods used in current network architectures. First of all, before we figure out Software router, we need to understand what is hard routing?

What is hard routing?

Introduction to Software router?

From the official definition, Software router is actually a router solution through desktop or server with corresponding software. Users can choose the operating system and hardware devices according to their needs, and can even set up and optimize them to achieve some advanced functions.

Compared to hard routing, Software router is a more flexible and powerful routing solution. The concept of Software router is to use desktops, servers or virtual machines as hardware carriers and utilize a specific software system to realize the routing function. The most important feature of Software router is that its software and hardware are completely independent and separate.

The core components of a Software router include: a system, a network card, and a proxy service or firewall. At least two of these network cards are required, one for connecting to the external network (WAN) and the other for managing the internal network (LAN). Advanced users can also use multiple network ports for features such as broadband aggregation.

What are the advantages of Software router?

Software routers have several significant advantages over hard routes:

Flexibility: Software router does not depend on a specific device and users can choose to run it on any supported device, including desktops, servers, and even virtual machines. By choosing different operating systems and software packages, users can adapt the router's functionality to their needs.

Feature-rich: Software router is not only limited to basic Internet access functions, it can also realize traffic management, QoS (quality of service control), VLAN (virtual LAN) and other advanced functions. Users can customize various routing policies to achieve more complex network management needs.

High scalability: Since Software router relies on software to realize its functions, users can constantly expand its functions by upgrading software or adding plug-ins. For example, adding services such as ad blocking, firewall, Proxies, etc. can be realized by simply installing the corresponding software packages on the Software router.

Hardware selection for Software router

While Software routers are highly flexible, it is also important to choose the right hardware device in order to run stably for a long period of time:

Low Power Consumption: Software router needs to run for a long time, the host with power consumption under 20W is more energy efficient and suitable for long-term use.

Multi-port support: If bandwidth aggregation is required, choose a device with multiple ports to enhance network speed.

Compact size: The device should be small enough to be easily placed in the home or office without taking up space.

USB interface: convenient for external large-capacity hard disk, suitable for home server.

Gigabit/2.5G ports: Prepare for future network upgrades and adapt to higher bandwidth demands.

What can I do with a Software router?

With Software router, users can achieve a variety of network functions, it can optimize network performance and traffic management, multiple broadband aggregation, firewall and network security management, advertisement blocking and web filtering, self-built home cloud servers, remote control and monitoring network, Proxies IP setup and management, virtual local area network (VLAN) segmentation, customized routing policies, and so on and so forth.

Especially when used in combination with Proxies IP, it can significantly enhance network flexibility and security. First, Software router enables users to flexibly configure complex network policies, such as traffic management and access control, to ensure rational allocation of network resources. Users can set traffic limits for different devices and optimize bandwidth utilization to ensure smooth operation of critical applications.

With Software routers, users can easily use Proxy IPs to hide their real IP addresses, reducing the risk of being traced, ensuring secure access to websites and avoiding information leakage. In addition, Proxy IPs can also improve access speeds, as Proxy Services can provide faster response times in some cases.

Combined with Proxy IPs, Software router users are able to flexibly configure multiple proxy connections and choose different Proxies to fulfill different usage scenarios, such as Web Crawling, Web Scraping or Market Research. This flexibility enables users to achieve higher efficiency and success rates when dealing with diverse network tasks.

Software routers are also quite scalable, allowing users to enhance the security of their network through plug-ins or additional configurations, such as adding firewalls and intrusion detection systems. Even when using Proxy IP for network activities, users are still able to maintain a high level of security protection and effectively avoid potential Secure Proxy threats. Overall, the combination of Software router and Proxy IP provides users with a more Secure Proxy and efficient Porfiles. Here I focus on how to use Software router to configure Proxies IP.

Proxies IP Introduction

Proxies IPs are intermediate servers that allow users to perform network operations through another IP address. Using Proxies IPs can hide real IP addresses, break through certain geographic restrictions, enhance privacy, and prevent IP blocking by certain websites. There are many types of Proxies, including Static Residential Proxies, Rotating Residential Proxies, and more.

Static Residential IP: unchanged for a long period of time, suitable for operations that require a stable connection.

Rotating Residential IP: The IP address changes periodically, suitable for scenarios that require random IP switching.

Advantages of Software routers with Proxies

When Software router is used in combination with Proxies IP, the flexibility and controllability of network operation will be greatly improved. This combination is suitable for a variety of application scenarios, especially when frequent IP switching or batch network operations are required, and has significant advantages.

1. Fine-grained control of network traffic

Software router allows users to precisely manage and control traffic. By pairing Proxy IPs, users can assign different network requests to different Proxy Services. For example, certain requests can be sent through a residential IP while other sensitive operations are performed through a Rotating IP. This enhances privacy while ensuring the stability of the network connection.

2. Automated Proxies switching

The power of Software router lies in its programmability, which allows users to write scripts or use existing plug-ins to switch Proxies IPs automatically.This is especially important for those who need to operate in bulk or visit multiple websites. For example, by automatically rotating IPs with Software router, you can effectively avoid the same IP being blocked or flagged as abnormal behavior by multiple websites.

3. Enhancing privacy and security

Software router itself can provide additional Secure Proxies through its firewall function, while Proxy IP further enhances network privacy. When combining the two, users can not only hide their real IPs, but also realize multiple levels of Secure Proxies through Proxies Chaining (chained proxies) to prevent traffic from being traced or monitored.

5. Improving marketing and data collection efficiency

In e-commerce, advertising, market research and other scenarios, batch operation is a common demand. With Software router combined with Proxies IP, users can automate data crawling through different IP addresses to avoid being blocked due to excessive access from a single IP address. This approach not only improves operational efficiency, but also significantly reduces the risk of account blocking.

Software router configuration Proxies IP implementations

Step 1: Install the Software router operating system

First, choose a device that can run stably as a Software router server, such as an old computer with strong performance, a mini-server, or a dedicated Software router device (e.g., a host with x86 architecture). Make sure the device has at least two network cards, one connecting to the external network (WAN) and the other for the internal network (LAN).

Download and install the Software router system:

OpenWRT: Lightweight and suitable for a wide range of hardware devices.

pfSense: full-featured and suitable for users who need more advanced features.

MikroTik: Powerful and flexible, but requires a bit of a learning curve.

Take OpenWRTas an example, the download and installation steps are as follows:

Visit the official OpenWRT website to download the image file for your device architecture.

Use a USB utility (e.g. Rufus) to write the image to a USB flash drive, then plug it into the Software router device, go into the BIOS to set up booting from the USB flash drive and install the system.

Basic network configuration:

Enter the Web management interface of the Software router (usually accessed through the intranet IP address, initially set to 192.168.1.1).

Configure the WAN port to connect to the Internet and ensure that the LAN port can assign IP addresses to internal devices.

Verify that the network connection is working properly: use intranet devices to access the Internet and ensure that basic network functions are working well.

Step 2: Configure Proxies IPs

Configuring Proxy IP is the core step to realize the combination of Software router and Proxy service. The following is the detailed Proxies IP configuration process, specifically OpenWRT as an example for illustration, other Software router operating systems such as pfSense and MikroTik operation is similar.

Get Proxy IP service information: Get Proxies information through Proxy IP service provider (e.g. Proxy4Free.com).

Install Proxies Plug-ins (e.g. Shadowsocks, Privoxy, etc.): On the Software router, install the relevant Proxies plug-ins via the package manager (opkg). For example, Shadowsocks can handle multiple Proxies.

Install the Shadowsocks client on OpenWRT:

In the web management interface, go to "System" -> "Software" and click on "Update lists ".

Search for "shadowsocks", select and install the shadowsocks-libev package.

Once the installation is complete, go to "Services" -> "Shadowsocks" and start configuring Proxies.

Configure Proxies IP:

Go to the Shadowsocks configuration page and click "Add new instance".

Basic settings:

Server: Enter the IP address of the Proxies you obtained from your proxy service provider.

Port: Enter the port number provided by the Proxies service provider.

Password: Enter the Proxies account password (if any).

Encryption Method: Select the encryption protocol recommended by the Proxies service provider (usually aes-256-gcm, etc.).

Advanced Settings(optional):

Setting Multi-Proxies Policy: If there are multiple Proxies IPs to choose from, you can assign different Proxies IPs to different devices and applications.

Save and apply the settings.

Configure routing rules:

In the web management interface of Software router, go to "Network" -> "Firewall" -> "Traffic Rules". Rules".

Create a new rule to forward specific traffic (e.g. HTTP, HTTPS traffic) through Proxies IP. Traffic rules can be customized for different device or application types.

If you need to use Proxies for specific external websites or destination IPs, you can set up IP-based routing policies in the Routing section to forward these specific traffic through the Proxy IP.

Verify the Proxies configuration:

After the configuration is complete, open a device connected to the Software router and visit the IP address lookup website to see if the IP currently in use is a Proxies IP.

Check that the Proxy Service is working properly to ensure that traffic is passing through the proxy server correctly.

Step 3: Implement automated switching of Proxies IPs

Sometimes, users may need to switch Proxies IPs automatically, especially for batch operations or to avoid website blocking. Software router supports automated switching of Proxies IP through scripts or plug-ins. Here is how to realize this function in OpenWRT.

Install the cron timed task plugin:

Go to "System" -> "Software" and search for and install the cron plugin.

cron allows you to create timed tasks that can switch Proxies IPs periodically.

Write switching scripts:

Connect to the Software router using SSH and edit the script file (e.g. /etc/proxy-switch.sh) which will operate by modifying the Proxies settings or switching between different Proxies IPs.#!/bin/sh # Switch Proxies IP ifconfig eth0 down # Modify Proxies settings uci set shadowsocks.server='New Proxies IP' uci commit shadowsocks etc/init.d/shadowsocks restart ifconfig eth0 up

Set up timed tasks:

Ensure that Proxies IPs are switched on a regular basis by running scripts on a regular basis via a cron task.

Go to "System" -> "Scheduled Tasks" and add the following timed task

0 * * * * * /etc/proxy-switch.sh

The task will be automatically executed every hour, switching Proxies.

Test automated switching functions:

Wait for the timed task to execute and verify that the Proxies IPs are automatically switched as expected. You can check the current IP address by visiting the IP Lookup website or other extranet services.

Suppose you want to perform batch operations or data capture on an e-commerce platform, by using a combination of Software routers and Proxies IP, you can easily automate the following tasks:

1. Create and manage multiple accounts in bulk:

Conclusion

To summarize, the combination of Software router and Proxies IP provides users with great flexibility and privacy protection. Whether you are conducting e-commerce operations, social media management, or data crawling and market analysis, this solution can significantly improve your operational efficiency and reduce risks.

Overall, by utilizing a combination of Software routers and Proxies IP, you can do all kinds of network operations more easily, protect your privacy, and improve your work efficiency at the same time.

one of my professors decided to require us to use ai so I decided to educate her instead. I'll update if I lose points on the assignment but I couldn't fucking care less

also, if you don't fully know why ChatGPT/ai is so harmful to the environment, read through the sources I cited for more info: 1, 2, 3. Especially the paper.

I hate AI. You wanna see your favorite character say something? Here

Dick Grayson: Hi, Don't use AI to make me say things. I'm literally a fictional character, just think.

Look at that Nightwing himself told you not to! Want another?

Dean Winchester: AI is fuckin' stupid, nothing can fake being a human on my watch.

Wow, amazing!

Support the actual humans in your fandom.

Why are pros coming to a clearly critical blog? It's right there!! Under the name.

[proshippers-against-censorship]

Bit of a whinge, sorry.

I am in a predominantly anti-ship fandom. Whatever, I keep my head down.

But something I find really frustrating is this: I personally am unbothered/ scroll on past sexual stuff I don't like, but am very effected by gore, horror, excessive violence etc. I have no major trauma, I am not a minor, and even if I did have an 'excuse' I don't think I should have to have some kind of reason to ask people to tag gory stuff. But so many just don't, or say they do but forget half the time.

Thing is, it's the antis that don't tag it, share it untagged to their sfw blogs, post about characters being suicidal or very violent in their AUs etc. There's always about 10 different vampire AUs with excessive blood-eating and rarely tagged (sometimes with #bl00d, which is just great) - and a lot of them are specifically and militantly anti-proship. Now, since I purged all 'proship dni's from my follow list, I don't see untagged anything unless I go into the character tags.

The source material is happy little animal heroes saving the day, no blood and only cartoon-ish violence, basically immortal characters - so it's not a case of getting out of the kitchen if you don't like heat. Yes, it is probably the one you think.

So, even if I thought fiction was some kind of moral litmus test and that the proshippers sexualising the characters were doing something wrong - my peace and mental wellbeing are still better protected by being around proshippers rather than antis.

Tagging is always great.

i’m sorry but messaging people to tell them they have a problematic mutual is weird.

Do y’all think i’m best friends with these people? no i just reblog their posts sometimes. i’m truly not interested in your petty fucking Tumblr drama keep me out of that shit.

[frightnightindustries]

Unfollow this account if you're transautistic, transadhd, any of that bullshit. (Not talking about people who're trans and autistic, talking about transid people)

"But it's how I-" No.

"You can't control how I-" No.

You are neurotypical, calling yourself an identity that is for neurodivergent people. That's fine, except when neurodivergent people tell you to stop. Then you should stop. You have no argument for not stopping.

"But self-diagnosis-" No.

There's a difference between self-diagnosing and being transautistic.

Transautistic is saying "I'm not autistic, but I feel like I should have autism, and now I'm one of you!" And then I will respond by calling you ableist and punching you in the face.

Self-diagnosing is saying "Hey. I'm not diagnosed, but if I went to a good doctor, I think they would diagnose me with autism." And then I go "Oh, what are your symptoms? I have autism, I can help."

If you think you have autism, just self diagnose.

If you want to have autism, fuck off.

rhaenyra, rhaegar, and daenerys aren’t perfect victims so they sadly don’t get the sansa/elia/alicent treatment by delusional stans.

Something I learned today was that there is an anti solangelo tag. Why is there an anti tag to everything? It’s such a shame the toxicity has reached that ship. What’s next? Anti umbrellas? Anti the sun itself? Man, people are so negative

[villain-byteniwoha]

it's ironic that accounts saying they "block klk shippers" and "don't want to interact with proshippers" can always find something to say in my posts/reblogs. while I, a kaeluc shipper, personally have the "ragbros" tag blocked because I do not want to accidentally share something with a romantic context in mind, in case op is uncomfortable with that.

because I know how to put my own, as well as respect other's, boundaries in online spaces.

because I know that every single thing isn't meant for me and everyone has their own preferences.

because I know it's not only weird but also rude to go out of my way to put someone down for their interests or hard work.

but sure, call me the immoral one here for liking a fictional relationship between two fictional characters—who, keep in mind, I first started liking on the grounds that they were previously sworn brothers.
