01 Prepare Your Proxy Info

Before using a Static IP, log in to your Gooproxy account dashboard first.

Open the Static Residential Proxies page and get your proxy details:

IP address
Port
Username
Password
IP region

Make sure your proxy is in an active and valid state.

02 Configure Your Browser

If you want your browser to access the internet through a Static IP, use a browser that supports proxy settings or a proxy extension.

Fill in the following details:

Proxy type: HTTP / HTTPS / SOCKS5
Server: the IP you purchased
Port: the corresponding port
Username: your username
Password: your password

After saving the configuration, reopen your browser pages and the proxy will be in use.

If your browser asks for authentication, enter the username and password provided by Gooproxy.

03 Configure in Programs

If you need to use a Static IP in Python, Node.js or other programs, configure it using the proxy format supported by the program.

HTTP proxy

http://Username:Password@IP:Port

SOCKS5 proxy

socks5://Username:Password@IP:Port

Replace Username, Password, IP and Port with the actual proxy details you obtained.

04 Test with Curl

You can quickly check whether your proxy works using Curl.

HTTP(S)

curl -x http://IP:Port -U "Username:Password" https://ipinfo.io

SOCKS5

curl --proxy socks5://Username:Password@IP:Port https://ipinfo.io

If IP information is returned successfully, the proxy connection is working properly.

05 Check Your IP Info

Once the proxy is connected, you can check the following details of your current egress IP:

IP address
Country/Region
City
ISP
ASN

If the detected egress IP matches the Static IP you purchased, your configuration is correct.

If the displayed region differs from the region you purchased, this may be due to differences between IP geolocation databases.

06 Start Using

After completing the steps above, your Static IP is ready for real business use.

Get your IP → Configure the proxy → Test the connection → Start using

If you run into connection or authentication issues, contact Gooproxy support and provide your proxy configuration and the error message — we will help you troubleshoot.
