How to Configure IPRoyal Datacenter Proxies

Before you start using your proxies, you need to set them up. While datacenter proxies are pre-configured and ready for use as soon as your order is confirmed, you can still customize them. Here’s a specific example.

1. Let’s say we want to change the credentials for our proxies and set a custom username and password for each IP. We can do that in the Change proxies credentials section. Select the IP you want to change and type in the new username and password in the appropriate fields. You can also let the system generate a password for you by using the Random password option. Make sure both the username and the password only contain letters and numbers. Once you’re done, click the Change credentials button.

Once you’re done, the change will be reflected in the Formatted proxy list.

Note: You can change the credentials for each proxy once every hour.

2. You can also select the proxy type here ( HTTP/HTTPS or SOCKS5 ). If you change this setting, your proxy list will update automatically.

3. You can also customize the format of your proxy credentials to suit your needs. Select the desired format and your proxy list will update automatically, so you can copy your proxy credentials straight to your tools.

4. Finally, you can add IP addresses to the Whitelisted IPs list to ensure only authorized users have access to your proxies. Users with authorized IPs also don’t need to use the proxy username and password.

FAQ

Do Datacenter proxies support IP:PORT authentication/whitelist option?

Aside from username and password authentication, Datacenter proxies also support IP whitelisting. You can add your IP to the list and access our proxies without using a proxy username and password (IP:PORT method).

Can I use the same proxy on multiple devices at the same time?

Yes, as long as your devices are on the same local network. Our datacenter proxies are IP-bound, so you can’t use them on multiple devices if these devices have different IP addresses assigned to them.

Can I extend the 30-day plan for a longer period?

Yes, you have the option to renew your order for 30, 60, or 90 days by clicking the Extend button in the dashboard. Make sure you have enough funds in your account balance. The 60-day plan comes with a 5% discount, and the 90-day plan comes with a 10% discount. Once you extend your order, you’ll still be able to use any time left from your initial order. For example, if you decide to extend an order for 60 days while you still have 15 days of use left, your proxies will be available to you for the full duration (75 days in this case).

This option is also available for our other services, except the Residential proxies .

What are the available locations?

Our datacenter proxies are available in multiple countries. We constantly update the network to ensure our clients can always rely on fresh and reliable proxies for all their tasks. You can check the full list of available countries and locations on datacenter proxies page.
