For PS players, game shops and console media
Sign in to HK, Japanese and US accounts from local IPs, see each store as locals do, and set it all up in the console menu.
Accounts get native ISP IPs, leased monthly and fixed for the lease; with IP-allowlist auth the PS5 needs no password once the proxy is entered.
A PSN account's region is set when it is created; put the exit in that same country or region and the sign-in location, store language and currency all line up.

Many players keep accounts in several regions: Hong Kong for Chinese editions, Japan for Japanese releases, the US for English ones. Give each account a native ISP IP in its home region and it always signs in from the same place.
Native ISP IPPS5 and PS4 network settings have a proxy server option: enter the address and port. Add your home line's public IP to the allowlist and the console never asks for a username or password.
HTTP proxy · allowlistRelease dates, prices, demos and PS Plus tiers differ by region. Open the web PS Store through a local exit and you can see which region opens pre-orders first and what is on sale this week.
Short-term static IPOnce the console has a proxy, downloads and updates run through it too. Heavy downloaders, shops and cafés can put downloads on a bandwidth plan: dedicated 100Mbps–1Gbps, unmetered under fair use, so game downloads aren't billed per GB.
Bandwidth planFixed exits for accounts you use every day, short-term IPs for the odd look around, bandwidth plans for heavy downloading.

Signing every regional account in from one home line looks simple, and the problems show up over time.

HK, JP and US main accounts: a local home-broadband exit that stays on renewal.
A second or third console at home, or spare accounts: one each.
Other regions' sales, pre-orders and demos: leased by the hour, released after.
Bulk installs for shops and review rooms: dedicated bandwidth, no per-GB billing.
Game media tracking regional prices: per GB, in packs that don't expire.
Consoles use an HTTP proxy, PCs and phones can also use HTTPS or SOCKS5, with username and password or IP allowlist auth.
PS5: Settings → Network → Settings → Set Up Internet Connection, pick your network → Advanced Settings → Proxy Server: Use, then enter the address and port. On PS4 it sits in the Custom setup.
The console has no field for a username and password, so allowlist your home line's public IP and give the console only the address and port.
# home IP allowlisted, no credentials needed
curl -x http://GATEWAY:PORT https://example.com/Confirm on a PC that the exit country matches the account region before you touch the console settings.
curl -x socks5h://USER:PASS@GATEWAY:PORT https://example.com/For accounts you sign in to every day, pick native ISP IPs (From $5/IP/month): the exit sits on a local home-broadband line, leased monthly and unchanged for the lease. Spare accounts and other consoles at home can use broadcast IPs, which are dedicated and fixed as well.
One per account. Three regional accounts need three IPs, with exits in Hong Kong, Japan and the US, and each account always signs in through its own exit, never a shared one.
In the network's advanced settings, set Proxy Server to Use and enter the address and port NexIP gives you. The console has no credential field, so first allowlist your home line's public IP in the dashboard, then complete your PSN sign-in.
Send both through the same exit. On the phone, enter the same HTTP proxy in the Wi-Fi settings or use an app that takes SOCKS5, so the console, the PS App and the web store all see one sign-in location.
Short-term IPs (From $0.17/IP): lease one for 1–24 hours in the country you want, let it go when you're done, and keep the rest of the pack for the next big sale, since packs don't expire.
A dynamic residential bandwidth plan (100Mbps / $980/30 days): 30 days of dedicated 100Mbps–1Gbps, unmetered under fair use. If the exit has to be in the US, Japan, the UK, Germany, France or Korea, choose Flagship.
Long-term static IPs bill per IP per month (From $3/IP/month), short-term IPs come in packs (From $0.17/IP), and rotating residential IPs bill per GB (From $0.8/GB) or by bandwidth plan.
