Hey everyone, I’m looking for a way to use a specific IP address, like if I wanted to be on 21.21.21.21, and only use that IP. If anyone knows how to do this, please help me out. Thanks!
Here’s what I learned so far:1.
Pick a Reliable VPN: First, choose a good VPN that lets you manually select servers based on location. Some popular ones are ExpressVPN, NordVPN, or CyberGhost. Most of these are paid, but they offer stable connections and a wide range of server locations.
2.
Install the VPN App: Download and install the VPN app on your device. Most VPNs have versions for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS.
3.
Connect to a Specific Server: Open the VPN app, log in, and look for the option to choose a specific server. You can pick by country or sometimes by city, which gives you a stable IP from that location. While you might not get the exact IP like 21.21.21.21, you’ll be using a dedicated IP for the server you select.
4.
Check Your New IP: Once you’re connected, double-check your IP to confirm it’s working. You can go to a site like
whatismyip.com to see if your IP matches the location you selected in the VPN.
5.
Advanced Option (Optional): If you need a truly specific IP and the VPN doesn’t offer it, you could consider setting up a dedicated proxy. Paid proxy services let you buy an exact IP, but they’re usually less secure than VPNs.
Hopefully, this helps anyone who’s also trying to stay on a specific IP!
