Wellington proxies, made simple
Wellington, near the southern tip of the North Island, is New Zealand's capital. Many New Zealand government websites use both English and te reo Māori.

Wellington, simply: weekend finds, public-sector job searches and logins an IP can't change
Websites read your IP address to work out roughly where you are. A Wellington proxy gives you an address in New Zealand's capital, so searches, maps and adverts lean towards the city. People use one when job hunting in the public sector, getting to know the city before moving, or checking how a small business looks to Wellington searchers. It won't change who you are to sites that check ID.
Weekend finds
With a Wellington IP, searches for brunch, markets or walks lean towards Cuba Street cafés, the Sunday Harbourside Market by Te Papa and trails around Zealandia, the fenced wildlife sanctuary in Karori. That helps you get a feel for the city before you arrive.
Public-sector job searches
Many government roles are based in Wellington, and with a local IP, job searches can list Wellington vacancies first. Applying is unchanged: agencies check your right to work in New Zealand, and some roles need a security clearance, whatever IP you browse from.
Logins an IP can't change
Government services that use RealMe, the New Zealand government's login service, check who you are, not where your connection is. A Wellington IP changes nothing there, and signing in through a proxy can trigger extra security checks, so use your normal connection for logins and keep the proxy for browsing.

Good to know first
- Types. Residential and mobile IPs come from home broadband and phone networks; datacenter IPs come from servers. Residential, explained →
- Connections. Every type works over HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5. What those are →
- Sessions. A sticky session keeps one IP for a while, which suits logins. A rotating one changes it on every request, which suits long lists of public pages. Which do I need? → Static proxies →
- Limits. Only your IP changes, not your language settings, your clock or who you are when signed in.
- The rules. Stay within the law that applies to you and each site's terms of service. Acceptable use policy →
