How to Set Up HProxy in ixBrowser: One Residential IP for Every Profile
ixBrowser gives every profile its own fingerprint, so to a website each profile looks like a separate device. The IP address is the half ixBrowser leaves to you. When ten profiles go online through the same connection, a platform sees ten different devices behind one address, and that is often all it needs to link the accounts.
This guide shows how to give every ixBrowser profile its own residential IP with HProxy: which HProxy product fits which kind of work, how to generate one proxy line per profile, how to add the lines to ixBrowser one at a time or in a batch, and how to check a profile before its first login.
What HProxy brings to ixBrowser
HProxy (hproxy.com) sells residential, ISP, datacenter, IPv6 and mobile proxies in more than 200 countries. Residential traffic starts at $0.44 per GB, you pay per GB, and the traffic you buy never expires. Three things make it a good match for ixBrowser:
• One plan for every country. A residential plan works everywhere: you pick the country each time you generate proxies, and on Residential Premium also the state, the city, the ISP or the device type. A German profile and a US profile run on the same balance.
• A sticky IP per line. Each sticky line holds its own IP. On Residential Premium you choose how long it holds, from 3 minutes to 24 hours, and as many sticky lines can run at once as you have profiles.
• Lines in bulk. The generator hands out up to 5,000 lines at a time on Residential Premium (1,000 on Residential Lite), in the host:port:login:password format, so fifty profiles take one batch of fifty lines.

What you do in ixBrowser

Residential Premium
Sticky up to 24 hours, with the account's country and city
Ad accounts and stores that must keep one address for weeks

Mobile
Sticky, one carrier IP per profile
A simple rule: residential sticky sessions last up to a day. An account that has to show the very same address for weeks belongs on an ISP proxy.
Step 1. Generate your proxy lines in HProxy
1. Sign up at hproxy.com and buy traffic for the product you picked. You can pay by card or crypto, and the GB stay on your balance until you use them.
2. In the dashboard, open your plan and go to Generate.
3. Set Country to the country of the account. On Residential Premium you can narrow it down to a state, a city or an ISP.
4. Set Session to Sticky. On Residential Premium, also set how long the session holds; for an account you work in every day, take the longest, 24 hours.
5. Choose the Protocol, HTTP or SOCKS5, and the number of lines: one for each profile.
6. Click Generate, then copy the lines or download them as a file.
How to read an HProxy line
Every line has four parts, separated by colons: host, port, login and password. A Residential Premium line for a Berlin profile looks like this:
premium.hproxy.com:10000:USERNAME-type-residential-country-de-city-berlin-session-k3m9x20000-lifetime-1440:PASSWORD
• premium.hproxy.com is the host.
• 10000 is the port. Each port belongs to one protocol.
• USERNAME-type-residential-country-de-city-berlin-session-k3m9x20000-lifetime-1440 is the login. The location (Germany, Berlin), the session ID and the session length (1,440 minutes) all live inside it.
• PASSWORD is your password.
The login is long because it carries your settings. Copy it whole: a login cut short loses its country or its session, and the profile ends up on a random IP.
Step 2. Add a proxy to an ixBrowser profile
1. In ixBrowser, open Browser Profiles in the left menu, then Profile List, and click Create Profile.
2. On the Platform Account Configuration tab, fill in Platform and Profile Title.
3. Switch to the Proxy Configuration tab and set Proxy Method to Custom.
4. Set Proxy Type to the protocol your line was generated for, HTTP or SOCKS5.
5. Fill in the four fields from your line:
• Proxy Host: the host, for example premium.hproxy.com
• Proxy Port: the port
• Proxy Account: the whole login
• Proxy Password: the password
6. Click Proxy Detection next to Proxy Type. ixBrowser shows the IP with its country and city; check that they match the line.
7. Click Confirm. The profile appears in the Profile List, ready to launch.
Step 3. Set up many profiles in one go
With dozens of profiles there is no need to fill in four fields fifty times:
1. Generate as many sticky lines as you have profiles, in one batch. Every line carries its own session ID, so every line holds its own IP.
2. In ixBrowser, open Proxy Resources, then Static Proxy, and choose Batch Operations, Add in Batches.
3. Paste the lines one per row, in the host:port:login:password format they come in.
4. Assign one saved proxy to each profile.
Step 4. Check the profile before the first login
Proxy Detection tells you the proxy answers. Two more checks take a minute and can save an account:
1. Launch the profile and open the free IP lookup at hproxy.com/ip-lookup inside it. It has to show the proxy's address in the country you generated, never your own.
2. In the same window, run the WebRTC leak test at hproxy.com/proxy-webrtc-leak-test. If your real IP shows up, set WebRTC in the profile's fingerprint settings so it follows the proxy, then test again.
While you are there, look at the time zone. Leave it on the one ixBrowser detects from the IP, so the clock and the address point to the same place.
Tips that keep your accounts apart
• One profile, one line. Two profiles on the same sticky line share an IP, and a shared IP links the accounts whatever their fingerprints say.
• Match the location to the account. A German ad account gets a German line. On Residential Premium, add the account's city as well.
• Know how long a session holds. A sticky session on Residential Premium lasts up to 24 hours, then the profile gets a new IP. Accounts that must keep one address for weeks belong on an ISP proxy.
• Top ups keep your lines. Buying more GB tops up the same plan, so the lines already saved in your profiles keep working with the same login and password.
Common problems and quick fixes
• Proxy Detection fails. Usually the Proxy Type does not match the port. Each HProxy port belongs to one protocol: on Residential Premium, 9000 and 10000 to 10900 are HTTP, 11000 and 12000 to 12010 are SOCKS5. Set the Proxy Type the line was generated for.
• The country is wrong. The login was cut short or edited. Copy the whole login again from the HProxy dashboard.
• The IP changes between launches. The line is a rotating one. Generate sticky lines for account work.
• The proxy stops answering. The GB balance has run out. Top up in the HProxy dashboard and the same lines work again.
• Accounts get linked. Two profiles share a line. Give every profile its own sticky line.
Conclusion
ixBrowser keeps your profiles apart on the device side, and HProxy keeps them apart on the network side. Generate one sticky line per profile, paste it into Proxy Configuration or add the whole batch at once, run Proxy Detection and an IP check, and every profile goes online as its own person in its own country. Residential proxies start at $0.44 per GB in more than 200 countries at hproxy.com.
