Which Ports Do I Need to Use?
You can filter the proxy addresses and ports you need to use in the dashboard - these depend on the location and session type you choose. Add the port number and proxy address to connect to the proxy server.
What Is a Proxy Server and How Hoes it Work?
Simply put, a proxy server is an intermediary server between two devices on a network. It's like a towering viaduct that connects you to the wilds of the Internet.
The word "proxy" has been popular on the Internet for some time now. While it may be hard to believe, you don't need to be that tech-savvy to start using a proxy.
Let's take a look at what it really is and why people choose proxy servers.
1. How do proxies work?
Let's immediately understand that a proxy is a server that acts as a gateway or intermediary between any device and the rest of the Internet. A proxy accepts connection requests, forwards them to other servers, and then returns the data for those requests. Of course, this is very basic, as there are dozens of proxy types and their different configurations. However, this definition serves as a good starting point.
Suppose your device is a house on a certain street with a specific number (or IP address). You certainly don't want strangers touching your property, do you? That's where a proxy server comes in. Call it a mailman, if you will. A trusted postman who hides your number.
When using a proxy, the information you send and receive is not sent from your home (your real IP) address, but through a proxy server.
The proxy forwards your connection request to the website without revealing your data, but still collects the information you need. In this way, your details remain secure and inaccessible. How does the other party see it? The website you are visiting will see the proxy's IP address, not yours.
2. What are the most popular types of proxies?
Residential Proxy
Residential proxies maintain the highest quality because they look like real mobile or desktop devices. In fact, they are real devices. Each residential IP is an actual device that acts as a proxy server. So, for any website, traffic from a residential proxy looks like a request from a regular person, just like you and me.
Listen to this shocking news - even if you "abuse" a residential proxy and the server blocks it, you can use another residential proxy from the same server without any problems. Residential proxies are unblocked and are the safest, most reliable proxies available. That's it.
3. What can I do with proxies?
Super much! From SEO analysis to brand protection, from dating on Tinder to searching for flights, from getting online polls to verifying ads - proxies can basically do everything you need!
4. You can use proxies to perform the following actions:
Market research
Social Media
Retail
What Does Unlimited Package Mean?
This is also a residential proxy, but the billing form is sold according to the period of use, during the period of use you will enjoy unlimited amount of IP, unlimited traffic，unlimited location sessions, unlimited use of the residential proxy random country location, you can choose any plan form according to your business needs.
Is There a Limit to the Number of Ports I Can Use With My Account?
The total number of ports in ProxyLite is nearly 30,000. The maximum number of ports that can be extracted by the API at one time is 500, but they can be extracted multiple times. Users can use them for the duration of their purchase.
Unable to Log in Due to Account Anomaly
The following three reasons may cause login abnormality:
1. Frequent orders have been pulled, but all are in an unpaid status.
2. Entering the wrong password several times
3. Repeated login within a short period of time.
In order to ensure your normal use, please do not appear the above three situations, buy as needed, if not necessary, please do not order frequently.
If you can't login, please contact our official email and send us a screenshot of the abnormal login message, your registered email or username, and your local IP.
IP Test Results Don't Match the Region I Purchased and Extracted From
When you check on some IP testing sites, it may not match the region where you purchased the product.
The reasons are as follows:
1. Data Source
Different IP testing websites may use different data sources to obtain IP address information. These data sources may include Internet Service Providers (ISPs), geolocation databases, lists of public proxy servers, etc. As a result, test results may vary. As a result, test results may vary.
2. Data Processing Algorithms
Different IP testing websites may use different algorithms and methods to process and analyse IP address information. These algorithms may take into account different factors, such as geographic location, anonymity, proxy servers, etc. Therefore, even if the same data source is used, the algorithms of different websites may lead to differences in testing results.
3. Frequency of Updates
IP address information may change. For example, an IP address may belong to a certain geographic location at one point in time, but may have changed at another point in time. The more frequently a website updates its data, the more accurate its detection results may be.
4. Geolocation Accuracy
The mapping between IP address and geographic location is not perfect and may have certain errors. Different IP detection websites may have different methods of judging the geographic location of IP addresses, which may lead to differences in detection results.
5. Detection Technology
IP testing websites may use different technologies to test IP addresses, such as Ping test, Traceroute, etc. The use of these technologies may affect the accuracy and precision of the test results.
proxylite is based on ipinfo platform test results, if the test results are abnormal, please go to ipinfo platform to recheck. Actually, your server/VPS is indeed in the location you requested, and this physical location is the direct source of the signal. The virtual location of the IP associated with the server has absolutely no impact on performance.
Is There Any Way We Can Be Traced Back to Us Through the Target Site?
No. We protect traffic at the IP level. Website traffic comes from residential IP addresses that are not associated with your company or location. All traffic is also encrypted. It is your responsibility to protect all other parts of the system.
What Is Residential Proxy?
Residential Proxy (RP) is a proxy service that proxies users' web requests through IP addresses assigned by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) for home broadband networks. These IP addresses are used by regular home users and therefore appear to be internet connections from real homes.
Advantages of Residential Proxy
The common advantages of residential proxies in usage scenarios are security, anonymity, reliability and speed. Three of these usage scenarios are listed below.
1. Market research and competitive analysis
Businesses often need to monitor competitors' websites, product pricing, and marketing activities in order to adjust their strategies in a timely manner.
Reasons for using residential proxies:
Bypass Geographic Restrictions: Enterprises can use residential IP addresses from different regions to access content that is only visible in specific regions for global market research.
Prevent blocking: Residential proxies' IP addresses come from real home networks and are less likely to be blocked by target websites, thus allowing for ongoing data collection.
Simulate real user behaviour: Residential proxies can effectively simulate the access behaviour of ordinary consumers, ensuring that the data obtained is consistent with the experience of real users.
2. Ad verification
Advertisers and ad proxies need to ensure that ads are displayed as expected in different regions and on different devices to prevent ad fraud and misplacement.
Reasons for using residential proxies:
Geo-location simulation: By using residential IP addresses from different regions, ads are verified to be displayed in each target market.
Device Simulation: Residential proxies can simulate the web access environment of an average home user, ensuring that ads are displayed on home web devices.
Prevent detection and blocking: Using residential IP addresses to access the advertisement delivery platform is not easy to be detected as abnormal behaviour, effectively avoiding account blocking.
3. Access to restricted content and services
Users may not be able to access certain content or services, such as streaming platforms, news sites or social media, due to geolocation restrictions or IP blocking.
Reasons for using residential proxies:
Bypassing geo-blocking: Using a residential IP address from the target region allows you to bypass geo-restrictions and access restricted content.
Privacy protection: Residential proxies provide high anonymity to protect user privacy and prevent tracking.
Stable Access: The high stability of residential proxy IP addresses ensures continuous access to restricted services without interruption.
These usage scenarios demonstrate the importance and utility of residential proxies in different applications, helping users and organisations achieve their goals while protecting privacy and ensuring access stability.

Rotating IP Detection Methods
You can view the test commands in the [User & Pass Auth] interface, copy and paste the test commands into cmd for testing
As shown in the picture, the test results in a normal connection.
If you are unable to connect with your test results, please send a screenshot of your test results and a screenshot of your IP management interface to our official e-mail address: (not yet available)
We will arrange the relevant personnel to assist you in testing
How Many Threads/Connections Can Your Proxy Use at the Same Time
Our proxies run as stable as possible for a variety of purposes. Currently, it is critical for many people to use a proxy server on multiple devices for many people. We don't limit users, but creating a large number of threads on a single proxy can lead to slowdowns. On this basis, to make the proxy work perfectly, we recommend using it on no more than 3 devices.
How Often Are the Proxies Updated
We try to update our ip pool as often as possible for our customers. This applies to subnet counts and country/region lists.
