How Other Companies Use Our SOCKS5 Proxies
Frequently asked questions
What is SOCKS5?
SOCKS is a network protocol that routes network traffic to servers on your behalf. It can route any type of traffic generated by any program or protocol such as POP3, HTTP, FTP, etc. Unlike previous versions, SOCKS5 can utilize both TCP and UDP protocols for efficient data transfer.
Why should you avoid using a free SOCKS5 proxy server?
Any free proxy server is likely to be slow, suffer from reliability issues, or even steal your data. Getting a premium SOCKS5 proxy from a legitimate provider will help you avoid all of these issues.
Is SOCKS5 better than SOCKS4?
Yes, SOCKS5 is a newer version of the network protocol. Many new features were added such as TCP and UDP capabilities, authentication support, a larger command set, and much more.
What is the difference between a SOCKS5 proxy and a residential proxy?
These are two distinct categories that can be combined. A SOCKS5 proxy is any proxy type that can use the network protocol. A residential proxy is a proxy acquired from a household device. Many SOCKS5 proxies are, in fact, residential proxies as well.
Are SOCKS5 proxies better than a VPN?
Depends on your use case. For regular internet browsing, encryption, and a simple location change every once in a while a VPN may be better. But if you need frequent IP changes, lots of bandwidth and speed – SOCKS5 proxies are the way to go.
