Frequently Asked Questions

Residential proxy, as an intermediary server, are located between the user and the target website.

Their IPs are provided by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and support specifying countries, regions, cities, etc.

Static residential proxies provide fixed residential IPs, ensuring that users use the same IP for extended periods, improving access stability and security, while also hiding the user's real IP.

Aproxy's Residential Proxy offers IP resources covering over 200 countries and regions worldwide. Click here to learn more.

1. HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol): Used for communication between browsers and servers, suitable for retrieving and sending webpage content and data.
2. HTTPS (Secure HTTP): Based on HTTP but with encryption via TLS/SSL, providing additional security for transmitting sensitive data, such as login information and payment details.
3. SOCKS5: Supports data transmission between client and server, not limited to HTTP traffic, making it suitable for a wider range of applications. SOCKS5 provides higher anonymity by routing traffic through a proxy server.

Currently, all protocols supported by Aproxy are based on the TCP transmission protocol, ensuring stable and reliable connection experiences.

Big Data Transmission and Efficient Access: Unlimited Residential Proxies

Applicable Scenarios: Suitable for tasks requiring large data transfers or frequent access, such as data collection, web crawlers, market research, social media marketing, and more.

Long-Term Tasks and Stable IP: Static Residential Proxies

Applicable Scenarios: Ideal for tasks requiring long-term stable IPs, such as managing multiple social media accounts, brand protection, and online advertising.

Residential proxies support both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols, but when enabling IPv6, it's important to ensure that the target website is compatible with it. Currently, unlimited residential proxies and static residential proxies only support IPv4.

The number of threads or TCP connections supported by each type of proxy depends on the specific business scenario.

Generally, each proxy can handle multiple concurrent connections without limiting the number of threads. However, to ensure the stability and speed of the proxy IPs, it is recommended to control the concurrent thread count reasonably.
