Does anyone know if using a LTE, 4G will be as good as using a 3G or would there be something missing?

I found a company here in Canada finally that's got a good price on 5GB per month. But they offer LTE in my area. Also seen 4G HSPA+. It's really amazing how many things you can come and cross and still learn about new technology WOW!

So, can the same false caveat that has been circulating about VPN's be applied to proxies too?

I was looking into just getting virgin, private proxies. Unused, private... is there something else wrong with using a proxy that I am unaware of?

As long as it has not been used and abused, is there any other concerns?

LTE/4G have less IPs, so you'll be running into duplicates more frequently, but it seems like more unique IPs are popping up these days.

I tether my LTE phone for just one account and I've been getting different IPs lately.

There's a ton of 3G IPs, which is why it seems to be the better option.

Definitely a $ saver (at about 1/3 the price of tethering) the MiFi is, but a little bit more time consuming, at about 1:1.5-2 ratio compared to tethering and VPSs

The truth is a lot of people on this forum have a misguided hatred towards VPNs and using them for stealth. The reality of the matter is that if you support the use of VPS for stealth than you should feel the same way towards VPNs. Because in the big picture there’s really no difference between the two, at least in the context of using it for amazon/ebay purposes.


I think the reason that most people on this forum denounce VPNs, is because a few people tried them for stealth and had a bad experience with them and thus it became a trend for everyone to just follow along and state that they don’t work. So why do some VPNs not work, you may ask? Well that’s pretty simple its simply because people do not know how to search for nor use the proper VPN provider, and thus they end up picking one of the biggest providers available from the first page of google that only gives shared ips, and gives their thousands of members the same ips. And then people wonder why they got limited… Its simple you used an ip that someone else already used for ebay and got banned on, does that mean vpn is bad? NO! It simply means you used a banned ip, any banned ip will obviously get you limited whether VPN or not.


The reason people on this forum ended up supporting the concept that VPS work so well, is because before the need of using it for stealth, most people use VPS to host a website etc not for casually browsing the web. Unlike VPNs which are mainly used for browsing the web. So what does that mean, it means it is probably easier to find a VPS provider and get an IP that is not limited since most people who use VPS are not using it for browsing the web. So does that make VPS better than VPN? Absolutely not, it just means you better know what your looking for and use the right company when searching for a VPN provider. Again, I’m not trying to say VPN is the best solution for everyone, it depends on your preferences and needs. But for me personally, I’ve used VPN for every single one of my accounts for many years without a problem and absolutely love what it does for me, and facilitates a lot of things for me. So again I’m not promoting that everyone starts using VPNs, I’m simply letting people know that this concept that VPNs don’t work is not true at all. And if your looking for a IP solution, than you should do research and figure out what works best for you, not what works best for everyone else.

Why is this well said? It's bad advice.

I turn over 10s of thousands a month on my Amazon accounts. Why on earth would I use a vpn no matter how obscure it is. If other people are allowed on that server then the fait of your account is out of your control.

It's all very well saying you are fine and you might be for years on end. But one day someone else uses that vpn for Amazon and your business is gone over night

I can't believe this is being touted as good advice? If you have access to the Internet there are several easy and much more effective ways to go stealth than this.
