}'Proxy types
Residential Proxies
Route through real home internet connections. Residential IPs are assigned by ISPs to homeowners, making them virtually indistinguishable from regular users. Best for accessing sites with strict bot detection.
ISP Proxies
Data-center IPs registered to legitimate internet service providers. Faster than residential with good trust scores. Ideal for large-scale operations where speed matters more than stealth.
Mobile Proxies
Route through real 4G/5G cellular connections. Mobile IPs are shared by thousands of real users on carrier NAT, making them nearly impossible to block. Highest anonymity tier.

Is there a latency difference for Japan proxies?
Latency depends on your server location relative to Japan. Residential proxies in Japan typically average 150-400ms. ISP proxies are faster at 50-150ms. Spider selects the lowest-latency IP available in the target country.

Yes. Set a session ID in your request to maintain the same Japan IP across multiple requests. Sticky sessions last up to 10 minutes, which is useful for multi-page scraping flows that require IP consistency.
