How to add a proxy to GoLogin, AdsPower, Hidemyacc, GenLogin and Multilogin
In this article
Antidetect browsers such as GoLogin, AdsPower, Hidemyacc, GenLogin and Multilogin let you create separate browser profiles — each with its own cookies, storage and fingerprint. But without a proxy, every profile still reaches the internet through your one home IP. This guide covers the proxy steps that are the same in every antidetect browser, the settings that must match the proxy, and how to use one rotating 4G proxy across several profiles without tangling your sessions.
Why antidetect profiles need a proxy
An antidetect profile imitates a separate "computer": cookies, browser storage, time zone, language and the hardware details websites can read. The one thing a browser can't fake on its own is the IP address — that's decided by the network.
If ten profiles share your home IP, platforms can easily see they come from one place. Giving each profile a proxy means each one gets an IP that fits its "identity": a profile for a user in Singapore should go online through a Singapore IP.
The steps, the same in every tool
GoLogin, AdsPower, Hidemyacc, GenLogin and Multilogin all have a Proxy section in the profile settings, all support HTTP and SOCKS5 with a username and password, and all have a proxy check button. The button names differ; the process doesn't:
- Get the proxy details. Under My proxies in 65Proxy, copy the host, port, username and password — or the whole
HOST:PORT:USER:PASSline. - Open the profile settings. Create a new profile or edit an existing one, and go to the Proxy section.
- Pick the proxy type — HTTP or SOCKS5 — and use that type's port. An HTTP port in a SOCKS5 field (or the reverse) is the single most common mistake.
- Fill in the details. Many tools let you paste the whole string and split out the host, port, username and password; otherwise fill each field.
- Click the proxy check. It should show the proxy's IP and the country Singapore. If it fails, see common errors below.
- Save the profile and open it. Inside the profile, visit ipinfo.io to confirm the IP, country and carrier.
Not sure whether to choose HTTP or SOCKS5? In antidetect browsers both work well — pick one and only switch if a particular site misbehaves. The full comparison is in SOCKS5 vs HTTP proxies.
Settings that must match the proxy
The IP is only part of the picture. A Singapore IP with a browser reporting Vietnam's time zone stands out more than having no proxy at all. After adding the proxy, check these profile settings:
- Time zone: set it to follow the IP. For a Singapore IP that's
Asia/Singapore(UTC+8), not your local zone. - Geolocation: also follow the IP, or turn it off if you don't need it.
- WebRTC: choose the mode that replaces or hides your real IP — the name varies by tool, and the default is usually right. In "real" mode, websites may read your home IP even with a proxy.
- Language: set it for the user the profile represents; above all, keep it consistent for the life of the profile.
Most antidetect browsers set the time zone and location from the IP when you run the proxy check. Your job is to double-check — how to test WebRTC and the time zone is in how to check a proxy.
One 4G proxy, many profiles: rotating the right way
A 4G proxy rotates on demand, so you have two ways to organise things:
Option 1 — One proxy per profile. Each profile gets its own proxy, so no two profiles ever share an IP. This is the only option if you need to run several profiles at the same time.
Option 2 — One proxy, profiles one after another. Several profiles use the same proxy, but only one is open at a time:
- Open profile A, do the work, then close profile A.
- Call the rotation link and wait a few seconds for the new IP.
- Open profile B, run the proxy check to confirm the IP changed, then work.
- Repeat for the next profiles.
Remember: every open profile on the same proxy shares one IP, and rotating changes it for all of them. Don't rotate while a profile is halfway through a login or a payment. The rotation mechanism is explained in rotating proxies explained; to automate step 2, see rotating the IP with an API.
Check inside the profile
Whenever you open a profile for an important session, take thirty seconds to check:
- Open ipinfo.io — the IP is the proxy's, the country
SG, the time zoneAsia/Singapore. - Open BrowserLeaks' WebRTC test — your home IP must not appear.
- If you use option 2 above: the IP must differ from the previous profile's.
Common errors when adding a proxy
- The proxy check fails: the proxy type doesn't match the port (HTTP and SOCKS5 have separate ports), the host or port has a typo, or the plan has expired.
- Wrong username or password: copy them again and watch for spaces at the start or end.
- The proxy works but pages load very slowly: you may have just rotated and the proxy is reconnecting — wait a few seconds and reload.
- You rotated but the profile still shows the old IP: close the profile completely and reopen it; the browser may be holding old connections.

Use it for what it's for. Antidetect browsers and proxies are tools for keeping your own or your clients' accounts organised. Follow each platform's terms — no tool replaces playing by the rules.
