Hello and thank you for your interest in this Actor (and sorry for the wait)!

I tried running the Actor with the same input under my account - just with Datacenter proxies instead of Residentials - and it worked just fine. While Residential proxies should be in general more reliable, they are also more costly and noticeably slower (this is balanced by their good score with antibot protection services). Switching to Datacenter proxies gives you a faster connection to the target server with still a reasonably good (i.e. low) bot score.

Check out my example run at https://console.apify.com/view/runs/hGShY3iKdDgLIsxvr and feel free to reuse the input from there (the only difference is the proxy setup, though).

I'll close this issue now, but feel free to ask more questions regarding this problem, if you have any. Thanks again!
