Anyone else constantly getting login verification when switching between Wi-Fi and hotspot?

Every time I switch from my home Wi-Fi to my hotspot (or vice versa), I get hit with a 2FA prompt or "unusual activity" warning on apps.

I get why it happens, because the IP changes. It's gotten exhausting.

Anyone can suggest a fix short of just staying on one connection?

How to grow my audience beyond my local region?

I've been trying to grow my account for a few months now and when I checked the backend on platforms, the vast majority of my followers and viewers are based in Asia where I'm located.

My content isn't region-specific. Do platforms like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube heavily weigh our location when deciding who to show the content to?

Is there VPN alternative options out there? Anything that can be owned by users instead of subscriptions. I'm not a very techy user, hopefully can find some suggestions here.

I’ve been messing around with a Deeper Connect unit for a few months now. Originally just got it for the privacy stuff, but I decided to test it out for my social media accounts since I’ve been struggling to reach anyone outside my local area. I set my tunnel to the US (and sometimes European countries like France) to see if it actually changed my "local" reach. Usually, when I post, it's 90% local viewers. After switching the hardware to a US node, my analytics actually flipped. About 80% of my new viewers were coming from the US after a day of data. It works more "stable" than the desktop VPNs (Nord) I used to use.

Just wanted to put this out there for anyone else trying to grow an international audience.
