Nodes handle tasks like routing VPN traffic, scraping web data, monitoring uptime and latency, and accelerating content delivery. All powered by real user devices and enterprise grade hardware around the world.

Every node runs a Universal Agent, which connects the device to the network and manages things like registration, session handling, and stats reporting.

The Universal Agent is responsible for:

  • Registering the node with Ping validators
  • Handling authentication and session authorization
  • Sending performance data and traffic reports
  • Receiving module updates and task assignments
  • Coordinating traffic flow between modules

On top of this, nodes can activate specific modules based on their hardware and configuration.

This design keeps the system modular and scalable. Each node contributes based on its capacity, and the network adjusts dynamically as new devices join or tasks change.

​
Universal Agent and Modules

The Universal Agent is always active. It handles communication with the network and coordinates everything the node does.

Additional modules are activated automatically, depending on the capabilities of the device. These include VPN client/server, proxy, scraping, relay, cache, and monitoring.

​
Example Configurations

Nodes can run on different types of hardware. Each configuration has a different role in the network.

​
Mobile Edge Node

Runs on smartphones or laptops. Supports outbound functions like VPN Client, Scraping, and Network Monitoring. Cannot run heavy modules or serve inbound traffic.

​
Server Node

Runs on VPS or dedicated servers. Can support all modules including VPN Server, Proxy Server, Relay, Cache, and Monitoring. Designed for high throughput and inbound tasks.

​
Home Router Node

Runs on consumer routers and gateways. Can provide proxy routing, reverse proxy, monitoring and scraping.

Nodes come in many forms, but they all serve the same purpose: move data where it’s needed. Whether it’s a phone, router, or server, each device strengthens the network, improves coverage, and helps deliver faster, cheaper Internet infrastructure.
