The problem

What a static IPv4 tunnel service does

A static IPv4 tunnel service lends you a public IPv4 address on its own network. Your device or router connects out over WireGuard, and traffic sent to that address comes back down the tunnel. Nothing on your home line has to accept a connection, so it works behind CGNAT, Starlink or a phone hotspot.

Unlike a shared VPN exit, the address is yours alone and accepts inbound connections. The real differences are price, speed, data, locations and how much setup each one expects from you. A game tunnel such as playit.gg is narrower: it forwards chosen ports to its agent, and it is not a VPN.

Good to know

Good to know

  • Two locations: Kansas City, Missouri and San Jose, California. Users far from the IP's city see some extra delay.
  • Speed and data are capped by plan, from 20 Mbps and 100 GB on Plus to 1 Gbps and 5 TB on Ultra. Going over the data pauses the tunnel until the monthly reset or an upgrade.
  • Routing: no BGP, and the whole device uses the IP.
  • Mail: outbound port 25 is blocked by default; unlocking it is $25 one-time.
FAQ

Questions, answered.

01What is a static IPv4 tunnel service?

A service that gives you a public IPv4 address on its network and delivers it to your device or router through an outbound tunnel, usually WireGuard. You get a fixed address with inbound ports, even behind CGNAT, with no VPS to run.

02What is a good Hoppy Network alternative?

GetAStatic gives you the same thing, a dedicated public IPv4 over WireGuard, from $2/mo. You open TCP or UDP ports in the dashboard, and the same config works as a VPN on phones, laptops and routers.

03Is there a GetPublicIP alternative for phones and routers?

Yes. GetAStatic uses a standard WireGuard config, so it runs in the WireGuard app on iPhone, Android, macOS, Windows and Linux, and on routers such as OpenWrt or GL.iNet. AmneziaWG helps on networks that block WireGuard.

04Is a playit.gg dedicated IP the same thing?

Not quite. It gives your playit.gg tunnels their own address, but traffic still runs through the playit agent, and your device's outgoing traffic does not leave from that IP. A static IP over WireGuard covers inbound and outbound.

05Can I move my setup from another provider?

Yes, but you get a new address, because each IP belongs to its provider's network. Open the same ports here, then point DNS records and allowlists at the new IP.

06Where is the IP located?

Kansas City, Missouri or San Jose, California, USA. New orders get the default city. It is a datacenter address, not a home one, and users far from the IP's city will notice some extra delay.
