When a Proxy Dies Mid-Run

Читать по-русски

The address dropped, half the list is done, the account is in limbo. The order of actions that keeps a glitch from becoming a lost account.

When a Proxy Dies Mid-Run

Proxies fail. The question is not whether but what you do in the next five minutes — and that is where it is easy to cause more damage than the failure did.

First: do not connect the account directly

The most expensive mistake. The hand reaches to switch the proxy off and «finish the rest», and the account appears on the network from your home address. To Telegram that is an instant change of country and device — exactly the picture the proxy existed to prevent.

One such login links the account to you, and to every other account you have ever «finished» that way.

Second: stop the work

Do not push on through a dropping connection. Requests cut off halfway look like a broken client and add reasons for a restriction — see what to do about peer flood.

Third: find out what died

The proxy or the account. The symptoms differ and get confused constantly — separated in proxy works but account does not. Test the address on its own, without the account.

Fourth: replace like with like

Same country, same type. Not «whatever is at hand»: a temporary address in another country is a house move with all the consequences described in moving an account.

Fifth: bring the load back slowly

Let the account sit connected once the link is restored, then start at half the usual volume. The rest of the list will keep. The account might not.

Preparing in advance

Keep a spare address of the same country for every few working ones. Cheaper than improvising at three in the morning, and it removes the temptation to connect directly. Tracking spares is in keeping track of proxies.
