➡️ Overview

Rayobyte’s Residential Proxies offer advanced customization, allowing you to:

  • ✔ Geo-Target IPs based on country, region/state, and city.
  • ✔ Enable Sticky Sessions to maintain the same IP for up to 60 minutes.

To access these settings, log in to your Rayobyte Dashboard.

➡️ Default Proxy Format

By default, a Rayobyte residential proxy rotates IPs with every request and looks like this:

username123:[email protected]:8000

You can modify this behavior by enabling Geo-Targeting and Sticky Sessions.

➡️ Enabling Geo-Targeting

✔ Step 1: Access Geo-Targeting Settings

  1. ✔ Log in to your Rayobyte dashboard.
  2. ✔ Click "Get Started" under Residential Proxies.
  3. ✔ Locate Geolocation Selection and click "Update".

✔ Step 2: Select Your Target Location

You can target by:

  • ✔ Country:
    username123:password123-country-US
  • ✔ Region/State:
    username123:password123-country-US-region-california
  • ✔ City:
    username123:password123-country-US-region-california-city-los_angeles

Note: Use underscores (_) instead of spaces in city names.

➡️ Enabling Sticky Sessions

✔ Step 1: Access Sticky Session Settings

  1. ✔ Log in to your Rayobyte dashboard.
  2. ✔ Click "Get Started" under Residential Proxies.
  3. ✔ Locate Sessions Selection and click "Update".

✔ Step 2: Choose Between Soft and Hard Sticky Sessions

  • Soft Sticky Sessions: Keeps the same IP as long as it’s available.
    username123:[email protected]:8000
  • Hard Sticky Sessions: Locks the IP for a fixed duration, even if it disconnects.
    username123:[email protected]:8000

✔ Step 3: Set Your Session Duration

Once you select Soft or Hard sessions, you can specify a duration (1–60 minutes):

username123:password123-session-ABCDEFG-duration-10@la.residential.rayobyte.com:8000

➡️ Combining Geo-Targeting & Sticky Sessions

To target Los Angeles, California, USA and maintain the same IP for 10 minutes:

username123:password123-country-US-region-california-city-los_angeles-session-DonUarN5-duration-10@la.residential.rayobyte.com:8000

✔ Order Matters: Geo-Targeting parameters come first, followed by Sticky Session parameters.
