Here we will show how to set the options of our Rotating Proxy. It’s for both our Rotating Premium Proxy services (stable premium proxies) and Rotating Open Proxy (unstable public proxies).
1. Log in to the customer area
2. Click the license item
3. Proxy Authentication
If your software supports username/password authentication of the proxy, it’s better to use it. Thus the proxy will always accept your requests even when you send the requests from different IP addresses.
In the image, we use 1.2.3.4 as a demo proxy IP. You should see a different one in the client area. Here are the proxy options for your software.
- Proxy IP: 1.2.3.4
- Proxy Port: 2000
- Proxy Type: HTTP/HTTPS/Web/Connect
- Username: demo.username.com
- Password: demo.pass
If you use it as a Socks proxy, you can use these proxy options for your software.
- Proxy IP: 1.2.3.4
- Proxy Port: 3000
- Proxy Type: Socks/Socks5
- Username: demo.username.com
- Password: demo.pass
- Enable remote/proxy DNS (optional)
4. Whitelist IP
If your software doesn’t support username/password authentication of the proxy, you can use IP authentication. Whitelist the IP that is allowed to use the proxy.
In the image, we use 1.2.3.4 as a demo proxy IP. You should see a different one in the client area. Here are the proxy options for your software.
- Proxy IP: 1.2.3.4
- Proxy Port: 2000
- Proxy Type: HTTP/HTTPS/Web/Connect
If you use it as a Socks proxy, you can use these proxy options for your software.
- Proxy IP: 1.2.3.4
- Proxy Port: 3000
- Proxy Type: Socks/Socks5
- Enable remote/proxy DNS (optional)
5. Check Proxy IP
When you use the rotating proxy to access a website, it will use a backend proxy to do the task. To check its exit IP, you can use the rotating proxy to surf this show-my-IP page: http://www.find-ip.net
Since the proxy rotates IP for every request, you will see a new IP every time you refresh the page. If you are using the slow-rotating mode (Point 7 below), you will see a new IP after 30 minutes.
6. Country Filter
You can filter the proxy country. Here are the options of Rotating Premium Proxy. The options of Rotating Open Proxy are similar.
- All Countries
- United States
- United Kingdom
- Europe
- USA & Europe
- Others
7. Proxy List Mode
In most cases, you should not use the Proxy List (slow-rotating) Mode of the rotating proxy. It’s only useful if you want to manually change IP.
You will see a proxy list after clicking the “Proxy List Mode” button. They are 500 gateway proxies. The IP behind each gateway proxy changes every 30 minutes.
You can use one proxy for 3 minutes and then change to another one. Thus you can change IP manually.
If you change the “Proxy Country” option, the number of proxies in the list will be less than 500. For example:
- All Countries (500 ports): 104.28.22.115:20001~20500
- United States (250 ports): 104.28.22.115:20001~20250
- United Kingdom (20 ports): 104.28.22.115:20251~20270
- Europe (200 ports): 104.28.22.115:20251~20450
- USA & Europe (450 ports): 104.28.22.115:20001~20450
- Others (50 ports): 104.28.22.115:20451~20500

- Google: Though Rotating Premium Proxy has thousands of IPs, Google blocks many of them. Rotating Open Proxy has new IPs every day, it still works for Google searches.
- PlayStation: Because of the complaints from Sony, our Rotating Premium Proxy service blocks all the traffic to its PlayStation Network (PSN).
- Twitch: Some users are using the Rotating Premium Proxy service for Twitch. But some users said it doesn’t work.
- Youtube: Some IPs in Rotating Open can open Youtube pages. But they are usually too slow to load the videos.
