Configuration Of MarsProxies Ultra Residential Proxies

Before you start using your Ultra Residential proxies, it’s important to set them up properly. Here’s a specific example.

UR11_new.png
  1. Here, we’ll select the source Country for our proxies. We’ll choose Italy. You can also set a larger number of countries.
  2. Once our country (or countries) are selected, the State/Region field becomes available. It allows us to select a specific region or city from the countries we selected. In this case, we’ll choose Rome.
  3. The Rotation option allows us to select between rotating (randomized) IPs and sticky IPs (using the same IP for up to 7 days). We’ll use sticky IPs.
  4. In terms of proxy type, we can select HTTP/HTTPS or SOCKS5. We’ll choose SOCKS5.
  5. For the hostname format, we’ll go with DNS because our tool accepts both formats.
  6. Here you can set the duration of your sessions in seconds, minutes, hours, or days. We'll go with 30 minutes.
  7. The proxy list reflects the choices we’ve made above. We selected proxies from Rome, Italy that use SOCKS5 and rotate every 24 hours.
  8. From here, we can modify the number of sessions we need in the Quantity section.
  9. We can also change the Format as needed to ensure our tools will recognize the credentials properly.
  10. Finally, we can reset the password for all generated sessions, copy our proxy list to your clipboard, or download it as a .txt file to import it into our tools.

FAQ

How large is the IP pool of the Residential proxies plan?

Our Residential proxies plan currently has over one million genuine residential IP addresses in over 190+ countries.

Will my traffic expire?

The Residential traffic never expires. Once you purchase it, it remains active forever, so you can use it whenever you need to.

Why do my proxy credentials all look the same? Are they all the same IP address?

The IP and PORT information you see in your proxy list is used to connect you to our Residential proxies, along with the username and password. If you're using the Randomize IP option (under Rotation), you will still get a new IP from the pool for each request you make.

If you're using the Sticky IP option, each password will get a unique session ID added to it. In other words, they all become unique sessions that will keep the same IP address for 24 hours from the moment you start using them.

What is the duration of sticky IP sessions?

The sticky sessions last 24 hours. All proxies in our Residential pool come from real users and devices. Since they can join and leave the network as they please, we can’t guarantee you’ll be able to use the same IP address for the whole duration of the session.

How much do Residential proxies cost?

The Residential plan starts at $5 per GB. However, buying more traffic at once provides significant discounts (down to $3.5 per GB).

Will my Residential proxies get blocked?

Like all other IP addresses, residential proxies can get blocked if you abuse them. As an example, sending a large number of requests to a website from a single proxy server can cause an IP block. The easiest way to avoid this and similar issues is limiting your request rate (if you’re using sticky sessions) or using the Randomize IP option so each request comes from a new IP.
