Proxy Setup (BYOP)

Configure your own proxies for traffic generation

10 min readUpdated January 2, 2026

KeLAAX Stealth uses a BYOP (Bring Your Own Proxy) model, giving you complete control over your IP infrastructure. This guide covers proxy types, configuration, and optimization strategies.


Why BYOP?

BenefitExplanation
Full ControlChoose your providers, manage your IPs
No SharingYour proxies aren't used by other KeLAAX users
FlexibilitySwitch providers anytime, mix proxy types
Better SuccessUse the best proxies for your specific targets
Cost ControlPay only for what you need

💡 Philosophy: Bundled proxies get overused and flagged. BYOP ensures your IPs stay clean and effective.


Proxy Types Compared

TypeTrust LevelDetection RiskCostBest For
ResidentialVery HighVery Low$$$All websites, YouTube
Mobile/4GHighestLowest$$$$Social media, mobile sites
ISP/Static ResidentialHighLow$$Long sessions, consistency
DatacenterLowHigh$Unprotected sites only

Residential Proxies (Recommended)

Real IP addresses from internet service providers:

  • ✅ Highest trust score with detection systems
  • ✅ Appear as genuine home users
  • ✅ Best success rates on protected sites
  • ✅ Essential for YouTube and social platforms
  • ⚠️ Higher cost per GB/IP

Mobile/4G Proxies

IP addresses from cellular carriers:

  • ✅ Highest trust level possible
  • ✅ IPs shared by thousands of real users
  • ✅ Nearly impossible to block
  • ⚠️ Most expensive option
  • ⚠️ Connection speed varies

ISP/Static Residential

Dedicated IPs from ISPs:

  • ✅ Consistent IP (same each session)
  • ✅ High trust level
  • ✅ Good for return visitor simulation
  • ⚠️ More expensive than rotating residential

Datacenter Proxies

IPs from data center servers:

  • ✅ Very affordable
  • ✅ High speed
  • ❌ Easily detected by most sites
  • ❌ Not suitable for protected targets
  • Use only for unprotected, low-security sites

  2. Click Add Proxy
  3. Enter proxy information:
    • IP address or hostname
    • Port number
    • Username (if required)
    • Password (if required)
    • Protocol (HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5)
  4. Click Test Connection
  5. Click Save if test passes

Method 2: Bulk Import

  1. Navigate to SettingsProxies
  2. Click Import from File
  3. Select your proxy list (.txt file)
  4. Choose format type
  5. Click Import
  6. Review import results

Method 3: API Integration

  1. Navigate to SettingsProxiesAPI
  2. Enter your provider's endpoint URL
  3. Add authentication credentials
  4. Configure rotation settings
  5. Click Connect

Proxy Formats

HTTP/HTTPS Proxies

Format: ip:port:username:password

Examples:
192.168.1.100:8080:myuser:mypass
proxy.example.com:3128:user123:pass456

SOCKS5 Proxies

Format: socks5://ip:port:username:password

Examples:
socks5://192.168.1.100:1080:myuser:mypass
socks5://proxy.example.com:9050:user123:pass456

IP Authentication (Whitelist)

Format: ip:port

Examples:
192.168.1.100:8080
proxy.example.com:3128

Note: Your server IP must be whitelisted with the provider

Rotation Endpoint

Format: rotation-endpoint:port:username:password

Example:
gate.provider.com:7777:customer_id:api_key

Note: Each request gets a different IP

Configuration & Testing

Testing Proxies

Before using proxies in campaigns:

  1. Select proxies from your list
  2. Click Test Selected
  3. Review results:

StickySame IP throughout sessionMulti-page journeys
TimedNew IP every X minutesLong sessions

Geographic Organization

Tag and group proxies for targeted campaigns:

  1. Go to SettingsProxiesGroups
  2. Create groups (e.g., "US Residential", "UK Mobile")
  3. Assign proxies to groups
  4. Select groups when creating campaigns

Scaling Guidelines

Proxy Count Recommendations

Daily SessionsMinimum ProxiesRecommended
50-1001020
100-5002550
500-2,00075150
2,000-5,000150300
5,000-10,000300500+

Sessions per Proxy

Proxy TypeMax Daily SessionsNotes
Residential (rotating)50-100Safe for most targets
Residential (static)10-20Lower to avoid flags
Mobile100-200High tolerance
Datacenter20-50Only on easy targets

⚠️ Important: These are guidelines. Reduce volume if you see increased detection or blocks.

Red Flags

  • ❌ Suspiciously cheap pricing (shared/flagged IPs)
  • ❌ No refund policy
  • ❌ Poor reviews or no reputation
  • ❌ Very small IP pools
  • ❌ No geographic targeting

Troubleshooting

IssueCauseSolution
Connection failedWrong credentialsDouble-check username/password
Connection timeoutFirewall blockingCheck firewall allows proxy port
Authentication errorIP not whitelistedAdd your IP to provider whitelist
High detection rateDatacenter proxiesSwitch to residential
Slow sessionsDistant proxy locationUse geographically closer proxies
Many proxy failuresExpired subscriptionCheck account status with provider

Best Practices

✅ Do This

  • Use residential proxies for all important campaigns
  • Match proxy location to target audience
  • Test proxies before campaigns
  • Rotate proxies regularly
  • Monitor proxy health in logs

❌ Avoid This

  • Using datacenter proxies on YouTube
  • Overloading single proxies with too many sessions
  • Ignoring authentication errors
  • Mixing proxy types within a campaign
  • Using expired or shared proxy lists
