Why SOCKS5?
Protocol Efficiency
Unlike HTTP proxies, SOCKS5 operates at Layer 5, handling any traffic (TCP/UDP) with minimal overhead and maximum speed.
Enhanced Security
Support for advanced authentication methods ensures that only authorized clients can access your proxy gateway.
Geo-Unblocking
Bypass geographical restrictions and network firewalls with our distributed infrastructure across the globe.
Quick Start Guide
Easily set up a secure SOCKS5 proxy using SSH dynamic port forwarding. This turns your local machine into a proxy gateway.
- Secure SSH Tunneling
- Dynamic Port Forwarding
- No Additional Software Needed
- Instant Connectivity
# Create a basic local SOCKS5 proxy on port 1080
ssh -D 1080 user@ip
# Advanced: Run in background (-f), compress data (-C),
# quiet (-q), no shell/port-forward only (-N)
ssh -D 1080 -f -C -q -N user@ip
# Test the proxy connection using curl
curl --socks5 localhost:1080 https://api.ipify.org
