NekoBox relay proxy setup on Android

Before you start

• Download and install NekoBox 1.4.2.
• Have a purchased MiyaIP static IP ready. Sign in to the MiyaIP dashboard and confirm that you can find it under Proxies → Static Residential → Purchased IP.
• Use this IP’s relay proxy QR code in the NekoBox format. Do not use the QR code from the Origin proxy (native proxy) column.

Prepare your Android phone

1

Set the date, time, language, and region

In your phone’s Settings, find Language & region and Date & time. Menu names may vary by phone. The screenshots show the settings menus; configure them for your target country or region.Open Language & region, tap Add language, and add and select a language other than Simplified Chinese, preferably your target country’s language. Then tap Current region and set it to your target country or region.

Open Date & time, turn off Set automatically, and tap Time zone. Set it to your target country or region’s time zone, and check that your phone’s date and time match that region.

Turn off location

Find Location in your phone’s settings and turn it off to prevent apps from reading your location.

Import and connect your relay proxy

1

Open the NekoBox add menu

Open the NekoBox home screen and tap the plus button in the top-right corner: the file icon with a plus sign in the screenshot.

2

Open the QR scanner

Tap Scan QR code in the add menu.

3

Scan the QR code and confirm that the node was imported

In the MiyaIP dashboard, open Proxies → Static Residential → Purchased IP and find the IP you want to use. Click the QR code icon in the Transit proxy (relay proxy) column on the right, then select NekoBox in the popup. Do not use the QR code from the Origin proxy (native proxy) column on the left.Use the NekoBox scanner you already opened on your phone to scan this QR code.

Return to the NekoBox configuration list and confirm that the imported relay node is present. You have only added the node at this point; you still need to start the connection.

Select the node and start the connection

Tap the static IP relay node you just imported to select it. Then tap the circular paper plane button at the bottom to start its proxy connection.

Use your own node name and connection details. The node information in the screenshot is an example.

5

Test handshake latency and reconnect if the test fails

Once connected, tap the pink status area at the bottom of the screenshot above. This area displays traffic and connection status and runs the handshake latency test when tapped.Check for Success: HTTP handshake took … ms in the result. The number of milliseconds depends on your test. The paper plane button starts or stops the connection; the pink status area tests latency. These are separate actions.If the test fails or times out, tap the paper plane button to stop the connection, then tap it again to reconnect. After reconnecting, tap the pink status area to test again.

6

Verify your exit IP and region

Keep NekoBox connected and enter whoer.net in your browser’s address bar. Check that the exit IP shown on the website is your purchased MiyaIP static IP and that the country or region is the one you expect.The latency test checks the connection’s response. whoer.net checks the exit IP your browser actually uses. Do not treat the relay hostname and port shown in the client as the exit IP.If the exit IP does not match, check the purchased IP row you scanned, the relay proxy column, the NekoBox QR code, and the selected node. Correct them, reconnect, and verify the exit IP again.
