How to Set Up a Mobile Proxy
This mobile proxy setup guide walks from plan choice to on-demand IP rotation. A dedicated Polish 4G/5G mobile proxy is usually live in under five minutes, and you do not need advanced networking skills.
This proxy setup guide walks through a Polish mobile proxy configuration from plan selection to exit-IP checks. It covers browser and system proxy, Python requests, OpenVPN, and Xray/VLESS. If you need to set up a mobile proxy, start here.
A clean first connection starts with clear credentials, host, port, protocol, and authentication. After that, test IP location, DNS behavior, and whether rotation or sticky mode is active before you put the proxy into real tools.

Step 1 - Choose a Proxy Plan
Open the pricing page and pick the plan that matches your timeline: 1-day for a quick test, 7-day for a campaign, or 30-day for ongoing automation. Every plan includes the same dedicated physical modem or real Android phone with a real SIM card, unlimited bandwidth, and full protocol support (HTTP, SOCKS5, OpenVPN, Xray).

Step 2 - Complete the Purchase
Pay with Stripe (card) or NowPayments (crypto: BTC, ETH, USDT, and 80+ coins). No KYC and no identity check. When payment confirms, the proxy is provisioned automatically.

Step 3 - Receive Your Proxy Credentials
After payment confirms, open your dashboard. Credentials appear right away. Nothing waits on a human operator.
Credentials you receive
- Host - the proxy server hostname (e.g. proxy.proxypoland.com)
- HTTP port and SOCKS5 port
- Username and password
- OpenVPN config file (.ovpn)
- Xray / VLESS config (JSON)
Step 4 - Configure Your Client
Paste the credentials into any tool that accepts proxies. Below are mobile proxy configuration examples for the most common clients.
Browser / System
Open your browser or OS proxy settings β enter the host and HTTP port β add username and password when prompted.
OpenVPN
Download the.ovpn file from your dashboard β import it into OpenVPN Connect or any compatible client β click Connect.
Xray / VLESS
Download the JSON config from your dashboard β load it into your Xray/v2rayN/Shadowrocket client β connect.
Python / Requests
import requests
proxies = {
"http": "http://USER:PASS@proxy.proxypoland.com:PORT",
"https": "http://USER:PASS@proxy.proxypoland.com:PORT",
}
r = requests.get("https://httpbin.org/ip", proxies=proxies)
print(r.json())Step 5 - Test and Rotate Your IP
After connecting, check your exit IP at whatismyip.com or httpbin.org/ip. You should see a Polish carrier IP (LTE 4G/5G). To rotate to a fresh IP, use the dashboard button or call the rotation API endpoint.
Rotate via API
GET https://proxypoland.com/api/rotate?proxy_id=YOUR_ID&token=YOUR_TOKENRotation takes 2-5 seconds. The modem disconnects from the carrier, reconnects, and receives a new IP from the CGNAT pool. The old IP is released immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to install any software?+
No extra software is needed for HTTP or SOCKS5. Both ship with browsers, OSes, and most automation frameworks. For full-device routing, download the OpenVPN or Xray config from your dashboard and import it into the matching client.
How long does activation take?+
Instant for cards (seconds). Most crypto payments confirm in 1-3 minutes. Credentials show in the dashboard as soon as payment clears. No manual step on our side.
Can I use the proxy on multiple devices at once?+
Each plan gives you one dedicated proxy, one device at a time for best performance. If you need multiple simultaneous IPs (for example, one per account), just purchase additional plans. Each gets its own independent modem and carrier IP.
What if the proxy stops working?+
Open a support ticket from your dashboard. Most connectivity issues are fixed within minutes. If the dedicated modem or Android phone fails, a replacement is provisioned automatically.
Is there a bandwidth limit?+
No bandwidth caps on any plan. Speed is limited only by the physical LTE 4G/5G link, typically 20-100 Mbps download. You will not hit a "bandwidth exceeded" error.
What credentials do I get when I activate a mobile proxy?+
Once activated, the dashboard shows host, port, username, and password for HTTP and SOCKS5, plus a downloadable OpenVPN .ovpn file and (for VLESS plans) the VLESS share URI. The host is usually a Warsaw-based gateway; ports differ by protocol. Credentials stay the same across rotations. Only the underlying mobile IP changes.
Can I use the proxy on my phone, laptop and a server simultaneously?+
Yes, the proxy endpoint accepts concurrent connections from multiple clients. There is no per-device licensing. Practical limit is the modem's bandwidth and the target's per-IP rate limit; for normal browsing and scraping, 3-5 simultaneous devices on one mobile proxy works fine. For account-management workflows where each account must look like a different device, get a dedicated proxy per account instead.
How do I trigger a manual IP rotation on Proxy Poland?+
Open the dashboard, open your active proxy, click Rotate IP. A new IP is usually ready in 5-15 seconds on the same Polish ASN. For scripts, call the rotation API with your API key. The endpoint is rate-limited to one rotation every 30-60 seconds so carrier sessions stay stable.
Is there a hard bandwidth limit on Proxy Poland plans?+
No, plans are flat-rate with no per-GB metering, only fair-use limits to prevent saturation. Typical 4G modems sustain 20-40 Mbps and 5G modems 80-200 Mbps. Hitting hundreds of GB/day is fine; sustained line-rate saturation 24/7 may trigger a fair-use review. For most workloads (scraping, account management, ad verification) you will not approach those thresholds.
Does the proxy survive my computer rebooting or my Wi-Fi changing?+
Yes, the proxy lives on the modem, not on your client. Reboot your laptop, switch from home Wi-Fi to mobile hotspot, change ISP, none of it affects the proxy IP, which stays whatever the modem currently has. Reconnect with the same credentials and you are back. The mobile IP only changes when you trigger rotation or when the carrier forces a session renegotiation (rare, typically every 24-48 hours).
Can I whitelist my IP instead of using username/password?+
Yes, the dashboard supports IP whitelisting as an alternative to user/pass auth. Add up to 5 source IPs that are allowed to connect; requests from other IPs are rejected. Useful for production servers with static IPs. For dynamic IPs (home internet, VPN clients) stick with user/pass since whitelist breaks more consistently your ISP rotates your address.
What happens if the modem goes offline mid-session?+
The proxy returns connection errors until the modem reconnects to the carrier (typically 30-90 seconds). Active TCP sessions through the proxy drop. Your client should treat proxy errors as retryable: re-issue the request after a brief backoff (5-15s). Proxy Poland's monitoring auto-restarts modems that miss a heartbeat; persistent outages above 5 minutes are escalated to operations and billed back via SLA credit.
