# 💻 GonzoProxy Residential Proxies

## 🏠 What are Residential Proxies?<br>

<figure><img src="/files/hfGaYNgQmDWz9rxI3Z1m" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

**Residential proxies** are IP addresses from a large-scale **P2P network** connecting over **20 million real user devices** around the world.

Unlike **datacenter proxies**, which are easily detected by security systems, residential proxies are **indistinguishable from real users**. This allows them to **bypass blocks, anti-fraud systems, and other restrictions** with high efficiency.

***

### ⚙️ Technology and IP Cleanliness

#### 🔌 How Our Network Works:

* **Unique P2P technology** — users voluntarily install our SDK application on their computers and mobile devices
* **Mutually beneficial collaboration** — device owners share a portion of their internet bandwidth and receive rewards
* **Direct access** — you connect through real devices, inheriting **their reputation and trust level**

***

#### ✅ Why Our IPs Are Clean and Reliable:

* **Genuine digital history** — every IP has a natural usage pattern and reputation of a typical user
* **Residential and mobile connections only** — we do not use datacenter/server IPs
* **Multi-level filtering** — our system automatically removes IPs with bans, bad history, or high risk
* **Constant pool updates** — new IPs are regularly added, while problematic ones are removed
* **Up to 90% IP cleanliness** — the vast majority of our IPs have a **low fraud score** across verification systems

***

### ✅ Residential Proxies Help With:

* Creating accounts without getting blocked
* SEO promotion
* Managing ad accounts
* Purchasing limited items faster than anyone
* Developing and testing software

***

## 💰 How to Start Using Residential Proxies?

#### 🔹 Step 1: Buy Traffic

* Buy traffic in gigabytes
* Traffic **has no expiration date**
* Charging is based on **used traffic**

💲 Price per 1 GB depends on the purchase volume:\
&#x20;      **from $6.5 to $2**

* 💰 **Cryptocurrency** (supports 20+ currencies)

## 🧩 Step 2. Proxy Setup

In the **Proxy Setup** window, you can generate proxies with custom parameters tailored to your use case.

***

### 🌍 Country

Select the country from which the IP addresses will originate.\
**150+ countries available.**

***

### 🏙️ City / State / ISP

Fine-tune your targeting by city, region, or internet provider.

* **ISP (Internet Service Provider)** — the company that provides internet access (e.g., *Comcast, AT\&T, Vodafone*)
* **Recommendation:** For account-related work, choose **either a city or an ISP**, not both — this improves IP consistency if it changes

***

### 🔄 Rotation — IP Change Mode

Decide how frequently the IP address should change:

#### • **Sticky (Sticky Session)**

* Keeps the same IP for up to **72 hours** or until the source device disconnects
* **Best for:** managing accounts, ad platforms, long sessions
* **How it works:** the system assigns you one IP and holds it as long as possible

#### • **Randomize IP**

* Each request is made using a **new IP**
* **Best for:** scraping, automation, anonymous browsing
* **How it works:** every new request is routed through a random IP from your selected pool

***

### 🔧 Protocol

Choose your connection protocol:

* **HTTPS**
* **SOCKS5**\
  All GonzoProxy residential proxies support both.

***

### ⏳ Limit Session — Session Duration

Set how long one IP should remain active before it changes automatically.

* After the time expires, a new IP will be assigned
* **Recommended settings:**
  * **24–72 hours** for stable account work
  * **5–30 minutes** for periodic IP rotation
  * **1–2 hours** for general use cases

***

### 🖥️ Server — Proxy Server Region

Affects only **connection speed**, not the IP address itself.

* **Standard** — auto-selects the best server based on your location
* **Europe / Asia / USA** — choose the nearest region for optimal speed

<figure><img src="/files/mgbm12YGAIaWOvVnPI66" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### 🔧 Example Configuration

**Goal:** Generate a proxy with an IP from **Armenia**, with a **72-hour session limit**.\
**Result:** The system will retain the same IP as long as possible and then automatically switch to a similar IP from the same region.

***

### 🌐 Step 3: Use the Proxy in an Anti-Detect Browser

* Load the created proxy into an anti-detect browser (e.g., **Dolphin Anty**)
* Create a **new profile** and set up our proxy
* Check the proxy for functionality

<figure><img src="/files/A505qWAf3bESaToezVNa" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

### 🔎 Step 4: Test the Proxy

Check access to popular websites:

* 📩 Gmail
* 📘 Facebook
* 💰 Binance
* 📸 Instagram

📍 Additionally, verify the IP and country on **whoer.net** — everything works fine 🎯

### 🎉 Done!

Now you can use residential proxies without any issues.

## 🧠 Expert Tips for Professionals

Pro-level recommendations to enhance security, performance, and efficiency when using residential proxies.

***

### 🔐 Maximizing Security

* **Golden Rule:**\
  **1 proxy = 1 account** — never use the same IP for multiple accounts on the same platform.
* **Smart Targeting:**\
  Choose **either a city or an ISP**, but not both — this helps maintain IP consistency when addresses rotate.
* **Rotation Strategy:**\
  For high-risk or critical accounts, set the session limit to **24–48 hours** instead of the maximum 72.

***

### ⚙️ Performance Optimization

* **Save Bandwidth:**\
  Disable loading of images, videos, and heavy scripts — can save up to **40% of traffic usage**.
* **Faster Scraping:**\
  Use **multiple proxies simultaneously** to distribute load across sessions for large-scale scraping.
* **Lower Latency:**\
  Select **proxy servers geographically close** to your location to minimize ping and maximize speed.

***

### 🎯 Task-Specific Recommendations

* **Ad Accounts:**\
  Use IPs from the **same region as your target audience** for better trust and delivery.
* **Social Media:**\
  Maintain **consistent connection parameters** (same IP/region) per account for longevity.
* **E-commerce & Drops:**\
  For purchasing limited-edition items, use **different IPs from the same city** to simulate natural behavior.

***

### 🛠️ Technical Highlights & Support

* If a source device disconnects, the system will **automatically assign a similar IP** based on your settings.
* You can create an **unlimited number of proxies for free** — you **only pay for the traffic you consume**.
* **Fully compatible** with all popular tools, scrapers, and platforms.
* **24/7 support** via Telegram: [@gonzoproxy\_bot](https://t.me/gonzoproxy_bot) — average response time is just a few minutes.
