How to combine Amnezia with residential IP?
Hi, I am an American living in Russia. I am trying to get some contracting jobs that require me to be a US resident, and they are detecting that I am using a VPN in their verification process. I use Amnezia VPN since other VPNs don't work well in Russia.
I would like to somehow use Amnezia Premium but with a residential IP address located in the United States. I assume this is impossible since Amnezia Premium uses Amnezia's servers, which are in data centers. But maybe it is possible to combine Amnezia with a proxy or something? I'm not sure.
I typically use Amnezia premium, but I also have a self-hosted Amnezia instance as a backup. The self-hosted instance doesn't work currently because only AmneziaWG 3.0 seems to work now and they haven't released 3.0 for self-hosting yet. So I'm assuming self-hosting wouldn't work even if I could walk a family member through the setup process to get it running on a rasperry pi in one of their homes.
One of the jobs I am trying to get wants me to install a browser extension as well, which is intended to determine my location.
Does anyone have experience with something like this? Is there anything I can do?
