Here is an example of setting up and using rotating residential proxy with account-based IP extraction on Windows 11.
1. Click the win button on your computer, search for "Settings" and open it.
2. Click "Network and Internet" and then click "Settings" in Proxies.
3. Open "Use Proxy Service".
4. Enter the generated IP address and port number you just copied, and finally click Save below.
(Note: The "Do not use Proxy Service for local (Intranet) addresses" option below is mainly used to ensure that the Proxies do not interfere with your access to LAN resources (e.g. company intranet or local devices). If you only want the Proxies to be used to access the external Internet without interfering with the LAN connection, it is recommended to check this option. If you need the Proxies to cover all traffic, including LAN access, leave this option unchecked).
5. After successful setup, open a browser window to visit the IP address detection website , enter the sub-account name and password in the pop-up window and click OK.
6. Verify that the IP address displayed has been changed to the IP address of the Proxy Service. Finally, visit another Web Testing the connection to ensure that the connection is working properly.
