Proxy Integration With SwitchyOmega

This step-by-step guide will show you how to set up Anonymous Proxies with SwitchyOmega in just a few minutes.

Recommended proxy services

HTTP Proxies

HTTP Proxies are handling HTTP requests towards the internet on behalf of a client. They are fast and very popular when it comes to any kind of anonymous web browsing.

SOCKSv5

SOCKSv5 is an internet protocol that is more versatile than a regular HTTP proxy since it can run on any port and traffic can flow both on TCP and UDP. Useful in games and other applications that do not use the http protocol.

What Is SwitchyOmega?

SwitchyOmega is a free browser extension that makes the management and switching between proxy profiles easy. It works without a hitch with major browsers like Google Chrome and Firefox. Instead of struggling with complicated browser menus or operating system configurations, Proxy SwitchyOmega lets you take full control of your proxies in just a few clicks.

Proxy SwitchyOmega Features:

  • Easy to Use: Its intuitive interface makes proxy management simple for everyone.
  • Multiple Profiles: Quickly create and switch between proxy setups as needed.
  • Compatibility: Works with HTTP, HTTPS or SOCKS5 proxies.
