Frequently Asked Questions
What is the proxy IP?
A proxy IP acts as an intermediary server between your device and the internet. It receives your web requests, forwards them to the target website, and returns the data to you, keeping your real identity hidden.
How do I find my proxy IP?
The easiest way is to visit an IP-checking website like whatismyip.com or ipinfo.io while connected. You can also find it in your operating system’s network settings or your anti-detect browser’s profile configuration.
Is proxy legal or illegal?
Using a proxy is completely legal in most countries. However, using a proxy to commit illegal acts (such as fraud, cyberattacks, or copyright infringement) is illegal.
What is a proxy IP address?
It is the unique numerical identifier (IPv4 or IPv6) assigned to the proxy server. Think of it as a public PO Box that masks your real “home address” (your local IP) from the websites you visit.
How to use proxy IP?
You can configure a proxy in several ways:
Enter the IP and port in your operating system’s network settings.
Use a browser extension (like SwitchyOmega) for quick toggling.
Input the proxy credentials into an anti-detect browser profile for isolated browsing.
Pass the proxy details directly into your web automation scripts.
