(WANT) $80/Mo - Private Residential Tailscale Exit Node Hosting for Social Media Management USA

Hello everyone,
I am a digital entrepreneur and content creator operating under a US-registered LLC. I am seeking a long-term, professional partner in California to host a low-power device (Apple TV or Raspberry Pi) to serve as a private Tailscale exit node.
The Use Case:
I specialize in digital content distribution and social media marketing for the US market (specifically TikTok). Because my accounts and business operations are US-based, I require a stable, high-quality residential connection to manage my platform presence and live streaming data without the "pollution" or "flagging" associated with commercial VPNs or data center proxies.
What I require:
• 100% Residential Fiber: I need a stable connection from a standard ISP (AT&T, Comcast, Spectrum, etc.).
• Private/Dedicated: This connection must not be used for other proxy services. It is for my business use only.
• Reliability: The device needs to remain powered on and connected to the router 24/7.
Technical Note:
I use Tailscale for a secure, encrypted private tunnel. Once the device is plugged in, it requires zero technical work or maintenance from your side.
Connection Requirements:
• Wired Connection Only: The device (Apple TV/Raspberry Pi) must be plugged directly into your router using an Ethernet cable (the "yellow" or "network" cable).
• Stability: A wired connection ensures the dedicated speeds I need for my US-market digital content without interference.
• Setup: Once plugged into the router and power, I will handle the rest of the configuration remotely via Tailscale.
Verification & Security (KYC):
I understand the level of trust required to host a node. To ensure full transparency and protect both parties, I am willing to undergo full KYC, including:
• Providing a Government-issued ID (Passport).
• Providing LLC formation documents (EIN/Articles of Organization).
• Conducting a video call for identity verification.
Compensation:
I am offering $80 USD per month, paid via PayPal Goods & Services. I am looking for a professional, "silent" business relationship and am happy to provide my LLC's EIN or credentials to serious inquiries to verify my legitimacy.
If you have a clean home connection and are interested to cover your internet bill, please send me a PM!
Thank you!

Welcome to LET!
Are you willing to provide full KYC (NOT an EIN, as a EIN is public information, you can use anyones EIN) to use someones home internet connection? For example, if you have someone host a proxy on their internet, then do something highly illegal, they could suffer great legal consequences (for example, basic online threats using a residential IP can result in an FBI visit and all devices confiscated, and this is the most basic.)
Hello, Kim.
Personally i wouldn't risk putting my name on an IP that will push out a bunch of undefined traffic (aside from likely breaking the TOS of the ISP) for a handful of dollars. Having some company likely operated from outside of my jurisdiction to fall back on isn't a whole lot when shit hits the fan (not counting the potentially massive waste of money/time/freedom if some kind of legal situation arises) but there is probably a bunch of actual companies that could arrange something like this even if its just one of those verizon business lines that fall within residential IP space.
Edit: Seriously, whats up with all those "need to colo at someone's home" requests lately... Watching US netfix probably isn't worth $80/m...
The problem with those companies is they IP that they provide is often polluted either banned or many people use it it's not a dedicated IP.. I will get flag for my creator content streaming. And yes i'm willing to provide KYC to show completely transparency and honesty.
Well, in the the past offers for actually setting up a brand new physical lines have existed. Those likely aren't polluted (well, at least not more than the ISPs general IP space is by default) but those kind of offers were custom and not some general thing on a random website as far as i know.
That might get you a contract somewhere then, i guess. For private individuals its still basically suicidal in my opinion. "Your highness, i didn't post X. It was Y. He send me a scan of his Bangladeshi/Chinese/Kazakhstani/... passport (which i could perfectly verify since who hasn't seen 1000s of these...), look!" isn't really a situation anyone wants to end up in and like @MikeA said it doesn't take a whole lot to get your door kicked in at dawn.
land of the free
so you're just looking for an IP to do tiktok streaming? I get requests for this every week people asking for IPs that aren't banned on tiktok. So I believe your request isn't malicious now, but it does make me wonder why people get banned so often on tiktok.
You might find someone eventually willing to do this since you're basically offering to cover their full internet bill. Maybe look for a VPS provider that has specialized residential services that have IPs announced under a residential provider ASN. There's one or two here that do but I forget who.
That's correct. I didn’t get banned i still have my Tiktok account. But, i moved from the US few months ago since i'm not in the US anymore my audience is shifting and i want US audience mainly. I paid for a private VPN (dedicated one) but my account got flagged.. Tiktok is really sensitive to VPN or data center IP.. I can still go live but they don't push me into the fyp anymore.
Not much different here in the middle of oh so different Europe. All it takes is calling a hypocritical, law breaking politician (literally) "a dick", an "offensive" meme and so on and so on.
Where i am over 50% of the population believes that it is better to not state your opinion in public (but then also a large portion believes certain opinions should be outlawed so my compassion is limited - it just all around sucks).
$80 seems like far too little for the amount of risk you're asking someone to take on. That barely covers the actual line. If you're actually making money, I'd set up an office and get a business connection. It's not nearly $80 a month, but you could probably do it for under $1000 if you find the right location. You'd need to be here in the states to search for a place, execute the contract, and move in/setup. You could maybe even sell this same service to other folks with a setup like that.
@rarecloud maybe? https://rarecloud.io/residential-proxy/
Probably not as those might be static but certainly not dedicated (which is basically what OP wants to not have to deal with burned IPs). It might be worth talking to them to see if they might be able to provide some kind of custom deal though.
In the end i fear they won't be of much help to OP since those kind of proxies regularly don't come into being because someone sets up residential contracts specifically for this type of usage but rather because they are generated by some kind of grey channels.
Guess i can't read. Those seem to actually not be this type of proxy.
Edit: I wonder if some kind of Pi colocation host would agree to colo a Pi with an LTE/5G stick attached. As long as OP pays the data plan of the SIM card (and there is adequate reception in the datacenter - no idea how realistic that is) this would grant OP access to a perfectly pristine residential mobile IP. Arranging the SIM, setting up the plan and mailing in the hardware would be up to OP though.
Probably not feasible since they want to stream video on TT. All US-based "unlimited" cellular plans are fake unlimited and have 100-600GB data caps lol. T-Mobile or Verizon 5G home internet might be a good option but they both require your SSN and credit checks I think.. but also, all US ISPs require SSN and credit check anyway..
I see. Its pretty much the same here (well at least until very recently when some actual unlimited plans appeared). "Unlimited" usually means X GB (not to long ago X would have usually also been a single digit number...) and then you get throttled into oblivion (like 32-64kbit throttled...). Neighboring countries have had actual unlimited plans like forever though.
Regarding SSN i might be wrong but given OP said that "he moved from the US recently" i thought he might have citizenship and therefore wouldn't have much of a problem setting up a contract but well... crystal ball assumptions.
4G LTE proxies are also pretty common and those IP get flagged pretty quickly.
Is https://dataimpulse.com sufficient for your needs?
Interesting. I don't know the network setups commonly used abroad but mobile operators around here pretty much all run CGNAT so blocking those IPs would block large chunks of users and i haven't really heard anything about people being blocked from big platforms yet.
It could obviously widely differ elsewhere but as far as proxies are concerned i think its also important to remember that what is sold is 99.99% not dedicated and therefore gets abused to hell and back by dozens or even hundreds of people.
Its probably correct though that these things are pretty common in places which still need no identification to setup mobile connections like Romania or the Netherlands (might have changed recently - its not like i really follow this much).
Edit: Well, identification requirements often mostly exist on paper anyways. While i technically have to show a physical ID to get a SIM activated there is probably still easily 6 digits of SIMs from before the actual ID checks came into being floating around (you could just write "Mickey Mouse" on the activation form back then). Finding a seller willing to write a bunch of nonsense on a new activation form and check off on having verified it is also seriously easy.
I'm not even sure this type of request should be allowed.. There's no way this ends well for the mark if you do find one here.
Probably banned for marketing stuff, fake engagement.
Might try Torguard. They have static residential IPs in many areas of the US. I see 600Mbps through my tunnel when in use.
residential vps ok?
This isn't quite correct, the 5g used by Calyx, Pcs For People, Computers 4 People on T-Mobile's network should be "true" unlimited plans vs the mobile "unlimited" plans. This is commonly used by people who live in their vans and such. I frequent the Calyx subreddit and haven't ever heard of anyone getting banned for using large amounts of data and there are frequent ancedotes otherwise (https://www.reddit.com/r/Calyx/comments/1l8g0md/how_unlimited_is_calyx_data_plan/)
That being said the data would get deprioritized at a certain point and doesn't help the other issues OP may encounter. In this case this is not the "throttling" that you get on cell plans that gets you down to 128kb/s or whatever though, it just may not be as fast, and things like netflix are always capped at 2.5mb/s unless you are using a VPN.
However just putting this out there as an FYI. In theory Calyx is a donation to a privacy supporting organization vs actually paying for a wireless service but I've become cautious of Calyx after their CalyxOS drama. However they are a pretty privacy respecting option for 5g internet that may actually be able to accommodate op if they were to go that route
+1. Mods should review adding this as a new rule.
$80/mo is pretty low. I wouldn't entertain the idea for less than $300 with a cost of $80/mo or less.
You want the benefits of living in the US? Simple solution, live in the US.
Well, "no asking for colo at people's homes" might make some sense due to protecting dumbasses from their own stupidity/greed but then any semi-sentient person should realize that playing proxy for random strangers (even if they managed to pay the ~$50? to get some website to register their LLC...) is a pretty bad idea(tm).
Beyond that there is nothing illegal about it as far as i can tell and it provides some entertainment outside the mostly same-same everyday routine. LET is already a bit tame anyways and i see little point in protecting [algorithm-of-random-big-tech-company].
Seems like odd request for a home user to do this for you?
80/month will get you a residential IP from many proxy, VPN or even hosting providers that are in this niche.
User said they often have bad IP’s which is somewhat true, but not shared plenty provide truly dedicated IP connectivity, for example TorGuard spectrum IP’s have been great for me, 0 blocking use for majority of social media.
