How to get a residential IP address?

I can't get into what you're referring to in your question as I haven't done this but I hope this clears up what you're asking.

You will need to talk to an ISP as they are the ones with most contact with what equipment is online from what I've experienced and been told.

How? Your router's IP is based on your ISP assigned IP address, and it's usually the same for all of your devices connected to the same network. If you're connected through a single WAN port, then the router that's being used as an internet gateway will have a static IP assigned by the ISP to that device. If you're connected with multiple WAN ports to different locations, then it's determined by the configuration of each WAN port. The router will usually have multiple WAN ports or ports that can be assigned with a single WAN IP. Usually you assign a static IP to each of your clients which will route through the configured WAN port(s) on the router. The exception might be if you're using DHCP on the router to allow it to automatically assign IPs to each connected device on the LAN. In that case it would probably look like 192.168.4 or similar depending on your hardware setup. To assign an IP to each device you'll need to go into their Network Settings and select a different IP address. If the device doesn't have DHCP enabled, or you want to use static assignment, then this is where to do it.

You might also get a chance to get one through your ISP as well as other companies that provide access services. One you use or acquire the service, you must call the company to activate it. You also need to make sure it is set-up correctly, but after doing that, you'd be able to use it as if it were a locally configured device. They might actually be able to tell you what address to assign to it as well. That will depend on how your ISP is set up as I'm sure you'd have to check with them and hopefully find someone that understands the system.

The basic process you describe will work no matter where you live, but if the local ISP uses different technology than the global network, then your IP address may not be reachable unless it makes a physical connection to the nearest WAN port on the local ISP, which is almost never actually done since it only serves to create confusion.

Can residential proxies be detected?

When I was on vacation recently I got a call from a customer service rep at a major telecom who wanted to know if there was any way he could detect when a residential proxy was being used on his site.

As you know, many ISPs use residential proxies to mask the true IP address of their customers, and the rep was concerned about detection of this practice.

Unfortunately, I was unable to give him any answers as I didn't know myself, but I thought it might be worth writing up a quick blog post about it. When a residential proxy is in use, the only way to detect it is to check the domain name of the connection against the ISP's DNS server. The problem is that residential proxies are often set up in a way that they can be bypassed by modifying DNS settings.

For example, many residential proxies are configured so that the DNS servers they use are a subdomain of the main ISP's DNS servers, which means that even if your ISP's DNS server IP address is known, a residential proxy can still be used to hide your identity from the ISP. So the only way to detect residential proxies is to check their domain name against the ISP's DNS server. This works in many cases, but there are lots of ways in which the DNS settings of residential proxies can be altered to prevent this.

If your ISP uses dynamic DNS, for example, then there's no way to detect whether or not a residential proxy is being used. If you own a residential proxy yourself, you can set it up in a way that it won't match the domain name of your ISP's DNS server, but that's not necessarily a good idea. And if you're using a residential proxy to protect your anonymity from a malicious ISP, then any attempt to detect residential proxies will also be detected. So the only real benefit you'll get is that you can tell yourself that your residential proxy isn't being used, but the ISPs can see exactly what you're doing.

The point of all of this is that the only way to detect residential proxies is to check their domain name against the ISP's DNS server, and that's not a reliable way to do it.
