Recently, some netizens shared a way to use Grok Bot As a method of network exit, not only successfully unlocked Google Gemini, also solved the problem of frequent pop-up of many websites Cloudflare Man-Machine Verificationproblem.
It is understood that this netizen originally used his U.S. VPS and WARP, but could not access Gemini normally. In the end, he passed Grok Bot comes with VPS export IP The problem was successfully solved.
Many people believe thatGrok Bot is not just an automation tool, its VPS export IP is the real hidden feature.
Although Grok Bot does not provide public IP, its export IP is of very high quality and cleaner than many paying nodes.
For example, some websites that often trigger Cloudflare human-computer verification almost disappeared after switching to the Grok Bot exit.
Let's sort out the entire implementation idea.
overall plan
The entire plan is mainly divided into two parts:
- use Tailscale Form your own VPS and Grok Bot cloud computer into the same virtual local area network;
- use 3X-UI Configure SOCKS5 outbound and routing to allow specified traffic to access the Internet through Grok Bot exits.
In this way, the export IP of Grok Bot VPS is displayed during external visits.
Step 1: Use Tailscale to network
due to Grok Bot's VPS does not have a public IP, so you need to rely on Tailscale Establish a virtual local area network so that your VPS can directly access Grok Bot.
What is Tailscale?
Tailscale is a zero-configuration networking tool that can connect devices located in different network environments to the same virtual local area network.
For example:
- MacBook
- iPhone
- Server at home
- us VPS
- Kong VPS Hong
After installing Tailscale, each device will receive a unique Tailscale IP, devices can communicate directly like a local area network.
The biggest advantages are:
- No need for public IP
- No port mapping required
- No NAT penetration configuration required
- Automatically establish a secure connection

Step 2: Install Tailscale in Grok Bot
You can send the following prompt directly to Grok Bot:
Install and configure Tailscale on the current Grok Bot cloud computer, and then configure a SOCKS5 proxy server that only listens on Tailscale IP. It supports TCP and UDP, does not allow direct access to the public network, and ensures that the service can continue to run.
During installation, input will be required Tailscale Auth Key。
Auth Key can be created at the following address:
https://console.tailscale.com/admin/settings/keys
For security reasons, it is also recommended to set a username and password for SOCKS5.
When completed, you will receive the following information:
- Tailscale IP
- SOCKS5 port
- user name
- password
This information is needed for subsequent configuration.
Step 3: Install Tailscale on your own VPS
Install according to different systems:
https://tailscale.com/download
Linux can directly execute:
curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | sh
After installation is complete:
sudo tailscale up
The terminal will output an authentication link.
After the browser is opened and logged in, you can see the device coming online in the Tailscale background.
At this point, the two machines have been successfully networked.
Step 4: Configure 3X-UI outbound
After successful networking, part of the VPS traffic can be allowed to access the Internet through Grok Bot's network exit.
here in 3X-UI Take an example.
enter Outbound (Outbound) Page, create a new outbound.
Main configuration:
- Agreement: SOCKS
- Target resolution strategy: IPv4 (can be adjusted as needed)
- SOCKS information: Fill in the address, port, username, and password provided by Grok Bot
After saving, you can click the speed measurement button to test the connection.
If the delay is normal, the connection is successful.
Step 5: Configure routing rules
enter Routing page, create a new rule.
Main configuration:
- Network: Any
- Domain name: fill in the domain name that needs to go through Grok Bot export
- Inbound label: Corresponding to the currently used inbound label
- Outbound tab: Select the SOCKS outbound you just created
If you just want to access Gemini, you only need to configure:
domain:googleapis.com
If you want all traffic to go through Grok Bot, you can leave the domain name blank.
After the configuration is completed, restarting 3X-UI will take effect.
verify the successful
You can use the following website to view the current export IP:
If the exit IP of Grok Bot is displayed, the configuration is successful.
actual effect
According to actual measurement by netizens:
- Google Gemini has been successfully unlocked;
- The previously inaccessible Gemini API can be used normally;
- There are many websites where Cloudflare human-machine verification often appear, and no longer require verification frequently;
- The overall quality of export IP is high.
Although Grok Bot's exports still belong to the IDC network, its overall reputation is good and its compatibility with Google and other services is good.
summary
The biggest highlight of this plan is that it does not rely on traditional VPS or WARP, but relies on Grok Bot Cloud Computer As a network outlet, combined Tailscale with 3X-UI Complete traffic forwarding.
This solution provides a new way of thinking for users who want to improve the experience of accessing some websites, unlock specific services, or reduce Cloudflare's human-computer authentication.
However, it should be noted that the network environment, IP reputation and access strategies for third-party services may change at any time. Therefore, the actual effect may vary depending on the account number, region and time. It is recommended to conduct testing and verification according to your own needs.
