Hi

 

I was wondering if anybody had recommendations for a Private Proxy provider that have a decent number of IPs that are geolocated in New Zealand. 

 

I've been looking around but not having a lot of luck. 

 

I guess an alternative is to use multiple cloud hosted servers based in New Zealand and set up my own VPNs, but that could get expensive fast. 

 

Thanks

 

Brett

I don't know any commercial service, bandwidth is expensive in NZ. If you can get a virtual server / VM you can install Algo on it then Wireguard on your PC / Mac to make your own VPN, which is very effective.


 
 
 

GoodSync. Easily back up and sync your files with GoodSync. Simple and secure file backup and synchronisation software will ensure that your files are never lost (affiliate link).

Thank you for that idea. I need several, and cloud servers are crazy expensive here too! 

 

But I might have to resort to that. 

 

Thanks

A quick search suggests vGrid sells virtual servers by the hour. I wonder if you can shut them down and pay only for storage, like the cloud providers do. If you can get away with Australia the big cloud providers can do it fairly cheaply.

Zappie Host have low priced virtual servers in Auckland.  I have no experience with their service but it certainly looks affordable!
