2. Claim Trial Traffic

After registration, log in to the IPWeb user dashboard at https://user.ipweb.cc for the first time and contact customer support to receive free trial traffic to try all proxy types.

New users can test proxy performance with the complimentary traffic before choosing a paid plan.

3. Purchase a Static Residential Proxy Plan

After logging in to IPWeb, select the static residential proxy product you want to purchase from the left dashboard.

Static residential proxies are billed by IP count and subscription duration. After purchase, you receive fixed residential IP addresses.

Step 1: In the left navigation bar, click 静态住宅代理 (Static Residential Proxy)购买代理 (Purchase Proxy).

Step 2: Configure the following parameters:

ParameterDescription
Country / RegionPrecise targeting by country or city
IP Quality & Use CaseMatch IP quality to your workload (Basic / Standard / Premium) to meet platform requirements
Protocol & FeaturesSOCKS5 / HTTP delivery by default; IPs are dedicated for secure business isolation
Subscription DurationChoose from 7 days to 1 year as needed
QuantityEnter the number of fixed IPs you need

Static proxy parameter configuration

Step 3: Confirm the order total and complete payment using a supported method on the checkout page.

4. Top Up & Payment

IPWeb supports the following payment methods:

Payment MethodDescription
Alipay (HK)Settled in HKD, instant credit
USDT-TRC20Cryptocurrency payment
Bank TransferAvailable for enterprise customers

Complete payment in the dashboard under 财务管理 > 充值中心 (Finance > Top-Up Center). Enterprise customers with custom requirements can contact support for a dedicated quote.

Dynamic residential proxies are billed by traffic usage. After topping up, monitor your remaining balance to avoid service interruption due to insufficient funds.

5. Retrieve Proxy Connection Details

After purchase, go to 已购线路明细 (Purchased Line Details) in the left navigation bar to view your dedicated:

  • Static IP address
  • Port number
  • Credentials (username / password)

You can use these details directly in your client configuration.

Purchased line details

Configure IPWeb Proxies in v2rayN

This guide is written for the v2rayN client. v2rayN is a Windows proxy tool built on the V2Ray core, supporting SOCKS5, HTTP, and other proxy protocols. The steps below apply to v2rayN 7.x (earlier 6.x versions follow a similar workflow).

Before configuring, complete the purchase workflow in the previous section and have your proxy connection details ready (proxy server address, port, username, and password).

1. Prepare Proxy Connection Details

Confirm you have the following four items:

  • Proxy server address
  • Port number
  • Username
  • Password

If you purchased dynamic residential proxies, these details are in the txt file you generated and downloaded; for static residential proxies, view them under 已购线路明细 (Purchased Line Details).

Each line in the txt file follows the format server_address:port:username:password and can be used directly in order.

2. Add an HTTP / SOCKS5 Proxy Server

Open the v2rayN client and follow these steps:

① Create a new server from the Settings menu

  1. Click 配置项 (Settings) in the top menu bar.
  2. In the dropdown menu, click 添加 [HTTP] (Add [HTTP]) (if your proxy protocol is SOCKS5, choose 添加 [SOCKS] (Add [SOCKS]) instead). The fields are the same for both—only the protocol type differs.

v2rayN Settings menu — select Add [HTTP]

② Fill in the proxy connection parameters

In the dialog that appears, complete the following fields:

ParameterValueDescription
别名 (remarks)proxy1 or any recognizable nameUsed to distinguish servers in the node list
地址 (address)Your proxy server addressFrom the information obtained in Section 3 (e.g., gate1.ipweb.cc)
端口 (port)Your port numberFrom the information obtained in Section 3 (e.g., 7778)
用户名 (optional)Your usernameIPWeb proxy authentication account
密码 (optional)Your passwordIPWeb proxy authentication password

Leave all other fields (transport layer, transport protocol, etc.) at their defaults—no changes needed.

v2rayN proxy parameters — address / port / credentials

③ Save the server

After confirming the five key fields above are correct, click 确定 (OK). The newly added server will appear immediately in the server list on the v2rayN main window.

3. Set as Active Node and Test Latency

① Right-click the node to set it as active

In the server list, find the node you just added (e.g., proxy1), right-click it, and select 设为活动 (Set as Active) from the context menu (or double-click the node). Once activated, a red 活动 (Active) label appears next to the node name to indicate the current selection.

You can also select 测试延迟 TcPing(多选) (Test Delay TcPing — Multi-select) from the same context menu to quickly check connectivity.

v2rayN right-click node — Set as Active & Test Delay

If you need to manage multiple IPWeb proxy accounts, repeat Step 2 to add each one, then switch between nodes as needed.

② Review the test results

After the latency test completes, the 延迟 (ms) (Delay (ms)) column on the right side of the server list shows the measured value (e.g., 353). As long as a value appears (typically in the hundreds of milliseconds), the proxy connection is working.

v2rayN test passed — latency displayed normally

4. Enable Tun Mode and Verify Exit IP

① Enable Tun mode

In the bottom area of the v2rayN main window, find the 启用 Tun (Enable Tun) toggle and turn it on (the toggle turns green when enabled). Tun mode routes all system network traffic so every request goes through your selected proxy IP.

v2rayN bottom bar — Enable Tun mode with live traffic log

If you only need the browser to use the proxy while other apps connect directly, use the dropdown next to 清除系统代理 (Clear System Proxy) at the bottom to switch to PAC or proxy-only mode. For data collection, account operations, and similar use cases, Tun mode is recommended to ensure a consistent exit IP for all traffic.

② Verify the proxy is working

After completing all steps above, verify using the following method:

Method 1: Visit an IP lookup site in your browser

Open a browser and visit https://ipinfo.io or another IP lookup site. Check whether the returned IP address and location match the proxy region you purchased.

IPinfo result example — showing proxy IP location

If the result is correct (the IP location matches the country/region you purchased), v2rayN is configured successfully ✅.

If the IP check shows your local IP, troubleshoot in this order:

  1. Confirm the active server is the correct IPWeb node (the one with the red 活动 (Active) label in the list)
  2. Confirm the 启用 Tun (Enable Tun) toggle is on (green)
  3. Confirm the address, port, username, and password match the dashboard exactly (watch for extra spaces)
  4. Right-click the node and run 测试延迟 TcPing (Test Delay TcPing) again to confirm connectivity

Chain Proxy

If your local network cannot connect directly to the downstream proxy in your target country, configure a chain in v2rayN: connect to a reachable overseas upstream proxy first, then route to the downstream proxy.

Path:

Local machine -> Upstream proxy -> Downstream proxy -> Target website

For example, use a Hong Kong node as upstream and a US node as downstream. The final detected IP should be the downstream node's IP.

1. Prepare Two Proxy Nodes

Prepare address, port, username, and password for:

RolePurposeExample Alias
Upstream proxyFirst-hop forwarding to overseas networkproxy1-HK
Downstream proxyFinal business egress in target countryproxy2-US

2. Create Upstream Group

In v2rayN:

  1. Click Subscription Group
  2. Click Add
  3. Set alias to pre (or another recognizable name)
  4. Keep other options default and save (no subscription URL needed)

3. Add Upstream Proxy to pre

  1. Select pre group
  2. Click Settings -> Add [HTTP] (or Add [SOCKS] if needed)
  3. Fill alias/address/port/username/password for upstream, e.g. proxy1-HK
  4. Save and run latency test

Make sure the upstream proxy itself is reachable before continuing.

4. Create Downstream Group and Bind Upstream

Create another group for downstream proxies:

  1. Open Subscription Group -> Add
  2. Set alias to land
  3. In Upstream Proxy Config Alias, select proxy1-HK
  4. Save the group

Select the upstream-proxy alias field correctly. In this setup, proxy1-HK is upstream and proxy2-US is downstream/final egress.

5. Add Downstream Proxy to land

  1. Select land group
  2. Click Settings -> Add [HTTP] (or SOCKS as needed)
  3. Fill downstream alias/address/port/username/password, e.g. proxy2-US
  4. Save

Because land is bound to the upstream proxy, downstream connections in this group will route through proxy1-HK.

6. Activate Downstream and Enable Tun

In land, set downstream proxy (proxy2-US) as active, then enable Tun at the bottom.

Traffic path becomes:

Local machine -> proxy1-HK -> proxy2-US -> Target website

7. Verify Final Egress IP

Open https://ipinfo.io and confirm:

  • Displayed IP equals downstream (proxy2-US) IP
  • Country/region matches purchased target
  • Not local public IP and not upstream egress IP

If all three are true, chain proxy is configured successfully.

8. Troubleshooting

Downstream cannot connect / always times out

  1. Test upstream node separately in pre
  2. Verify land group is bound to proxy1-HK
  3. Recheck downstream address/port/username/password
  4. Restart v2rayN service and test again

Detected IP is upstream region

You may have activated upstream node instead of downstream. Switch to land, set downstream as active, then re-enable Tun.

Detected IP is local public IP

Ensure Enable Tun is green, and run v2rayN as administrator if needed. Also check for conflicts from other proxy tools/browser proxy settings.

Chain works but speed is slow

One extra hop increases latency. Use a closer, more stable upstream node and avoid stacking unnecessary proxy software.
