Every example uses the same connection details. Replace USERNAME and SECRET with your credentials, and adjust the targeting tokens (-country-us, -session-…) to taste. The domain and IP are interchangeable. Examples below use the domain; swap in 160.202.129.71 if you prefer to connect by IP.

Code samples

Sticky sessions: add a session token to the username (for example -session-checkout1-sesstime-30) to keep the same residential exit IP for up to 30 minutes. Drop the token for rotating mode.

Browser (FoxyProxy)

  1. Install the FoxyProxy extension (Chrome or Firefox).
  2. Add a new proxy:
    • Type: HTTP
    • Host: proxy.illusory.io
    • Port: 1080
    • Username: USERNAME-country-us (add any targeting tokens here)
    • Password: SECRET
  3. Enable the proxy and browse. Your traffic now exits through a residential IP.
Because targeting lives in the username, you can save multiple FoxyProxy entries (one per country or session) and switch between them instantly.

Tips

  • For best throughput, run multiple parallel requests with rotating mode. Residential bandwidth aggregates across peers.
  • Use socks5h:// (not socks5://) with curl so DNS is resolved through the proxy.
  • Keep sticky sessions short-lived and scoped to a single flow.
