Dedicated Altoona PA VPN IP
Budget: $50 – $100 USD
I need a static, dedicated IPv4 address that geolocates to Altoona, Pennsylvania so I can log into my company’s Cato Networks VPN while I’m working from Medellín, Colombia. The goal is simple: when I connect, all company systems must see me as if I’m physically in Altoona, enabling full remote-work access with no compliance flags or location warnings.
Because Cato Networks sits between the endpoint and the corporate network, the solution has to play nicely with their client or socket. If you’ve done custom routing or IP whitelisting with Cato before, that experience will help a lot, but solid networking skills and an understanding of how to present a clean residential or business-class IP to geolocation services are what really matter.
I’m not completely sure how much encryption or extra hardening is necessary beyond Cato’s own tunnel, so I’ll lean on your advice there. Please flag any security trade-offs in advance so I can decide what is acceptable on my side.
Deliverables
• A working, single-user static IP located in Altoona, PA (verified by common geo-IP databases).
• Step-by-step configuration instructions to route my traffic through that IP before it enters the Cato Networks client. Screenshots or a short screencast are welcome.
• A brief note (bullet or short paragraph) on recommended encryption or additional security tweaks, given my use case.
Once I can sign in, open internal apps, and hold a video call without location prompts, I’ll mark the project complete.
