Proxy IP Connection Tutorial | Three Steps to Complete Browser/Software Configuration

Proxy IP Configuration in Three Steps: Works with Browsers and Software

Want different devices or software to run through a proxy IP? All you need to do is master theBasic Configuration LogicIt takes 3 steps to complete the setup, whether it is a browser or common software. Measurement found that more than 80% connection failure cases, are because they did not pay attention to the protocol selection and format filling.

Step 1: Find the right proxy IP information format

In the case of ipipgo, for example, the proxy information obtained by the user's backend usually contains four key parameters:IP address, port, username, password. Note that different protocols (HTTP/HTTPS/Socks5) will have slight differences in the way they are configured. It is recommended that you first confirm the type of protocol you are currently using in the ipipgo backend.

Examples of common formats:
HTTP protocol: http://用户名:密码@IP address:port
Socks5 protocol: socks5://username:password@IP address:port

Step 2: Browser Configuration Hands-on Demo

Take Chrome for example:
1. Open Settings - Advanced - System - Open Proxy Settings
2. Click on LAN Settings in the Connections tab
3. Hookingproxy serverIf you want to get the full address from ipipgo, enter the full address you got from ipipgo.
4. Check "Use the same proxy for all protocols" (HTTP protocols only)

Step 3: General Laws of Software Configuration

Different software configuration entrances are different, but the core logic is the same:
1. FindingNetwork Settings/Connection Settingsmodule (in software)
2. Select manual agent configuration mode
3. Fill in the complete chain of proxy information
4. After saving, it is recommended to visit ipipgo's IP testing page to verify that the program is in effect.

Take WeChat PC for example:
Settings - General Settings - Proxy - Use Manual Proxy - Enter the Socks5 proxy information obtained from ipipgo

QA for high-frequency questions

Q: Why can't I connect even though the configuration is correct?
A: Check three things: 1) whether the IP is expired 2) whether the protocol matches 3) whether the system fire blocking is turned on

Q: What if I need to configure more than one software at the same time?
A: We recommend using ipipgo'sAPI Extraction FunctionBatch acquisition of different IPs to avoid the risk of multi-account association

Q: How are mobile devices configured?
A: Add proxy in WiFi advanced settings, the format is the same as PC, note that cellular networks need to be set separately

When encountering special software configuration, try Socks5 protocol in priority for the best compatibility. After each IP change, it is recommended to clear the browser cache or restart the software to ensure that it takes effect.
