What problems will TikTok’s unstable network cause?

Most people who work on TikTok tend to only focus on the content and ignore a more important influencing factor – the network.

When you download TikTok, you will find a problem: you cannot search TikTok. Even if you successfully download it through some methods, you cannot use it normally. Why is this?

The reason is that TikTok restricts its use by mainland users. To solve this problem, we first need to build a stable network environment.

Can circumvention software provide a stable network environment?

In order to access TikTok, users generally think of "climbing over the wall" first, using third-party software to circumvent IP restrictions, domain name blocking, traffic restrictions, etc. to connect to foreign networks.

This method is simple and fast, but it has certain disadvantages.

This type of software will frequently switch IP addresses for some reasons.

For example, when you log in to TikTok in the morning, your location is in the United States; in the afternoon, it shows that works have been released in Russia, and in the evening, you are located in Spain and interact with users in the comment section.

Is it normal for this creator to travel across half the globe in just one day? The answer is obvious.

Therefore, accounts that use circumvention software to post videos can easily trigger the blocking system, resulting in traffic restrictions or even account blocking.

The following accounts are examples.

When the creator first released the video, he used a network with a stable IP, and the number of views reached about 500. However, due to improper operation, he switched to third-party software to release the video, which caused the number of video views to drop sharply.

This shows that a stable network environment is crucial.

In summary, the author suggests that if you download TikTok just for entertainment, it is fine to use a VPN; but for businesses that need to rely on the platform to expand overseas, a stable network environment is the foundation of account operation.

How to build a stable network environment?

1. Remove the SIM card

Users need to remove the SIM card of the device, restore the factory settings, and erase all data because TikTok will restrict the use of mainland users.

2. Set the language and time zone

Open the settings page of your phone, turn off GPS positioning, and then select the corresponding country, language, time zone, etc.

For example, brand merchants going overseas to the United States need to locate themselves in a city in the corresponding country, adjust the corresponding time, set the language to English, etc. Through a series of operations, they can disguise themselves as overseas users and provide a safe network environment for the device.

3. Stable IP

In addition to the two points mentioned above, you also need to have a network with a stable IP. For this, users can use some tools to direct the network or find professionals.

Last words

Whether it is TikTok players or merchants, the network is the first problem they need to solve. A stable network environment can not only smoothly download and use the software, but also lay a solid foundation for account operations.
