Tun2Socks Proxy Setup Guide

❗️

Please be aware that the Tun2Socks App setup with our proxies will only work on an Android phone

🚧

Country Endpoint Support

Please note that you must use the gate.decodo.com endpoint and the 7000 port to utilize SOCKS5. Country endpoints, such asus.decodo.com, will not function!

You can target specific locations instead by specifying the location in your username using advanced parameters:

  • e.g.: user-username-country-us will connect to the USA pool.
  • You can learn more in our detailed backconnect guides for Residential and Mobile proxies.

🚧

Proxy Rotation

To get a sticky SOCKS5 proxy in a tool, you must use a session parameter, otherwise, the proxy will always rotate even with a sessionduration parameter.

  • The session ID, can be defined by any string of your choice.
  • You can learn more in our detailed backconnect guides for Residential and Mobile proxies.
