Proxy settings in Kameleo

**Kameleo** is a specialized privacy tool developed by a team of experts from the Romanian company **Outis Nemo Ltd**. They occupied a unique niche in the cybersecurity market by offering users not just browser "fingerprint" spoofing, but the ability to emulate full-fledged **mobile devices (Android and iOS)** directly on a PC.

This makes Kameleo an indispensable solution for working with TikTok, Instagram, and any platforms requiring "mobile" traffic.

But the magic of emulation is destroyed if you use the wrong IP address. If your virtual "iPhone 15" goes online with a data center IP address, a ban will fly in instantly.

In this guide, we will break down **how to choose the perfect proxy** for your profile type (mobile or desktop) and **how to properly configure** it in Kameleo.

### **Part 1. Strategy: What proxy is needed for Kameleo?**

Kameleo offers flexibility, and your proxies must match it. The choice depends on *what* profile you are creating.

#### **1. Mobile Proxies (4G/5G) — Perfect for mobile profiles**

If you are creating an **Android** or **iOS** profile in Kameleo:

* **Your choice:** Only **Mobile Proxies**.
* **Why:** Anti-fraud systems expect a mobile device to go online via a cellular operator. The "iPhone Profile + Mobile Proxy" combination gives the maximum trust (Trust Score).
* **Application:** TikTok, Instagram, Facebook (farming), app registration.

#### **2. Residential Proxies (ISP) — Perfect for PC profiles**

If you are creating a **Windows**, **macOS**, or **Linux** profile:

* **Your choice:** **Residential Proxies**.
* **Why:** These are IP addresses of home internet providers. They are ideal for emulating a regular user sitting at a computer at home.
* **Application:** E-commerce (Amazon, eBay), crypto exchanges, payment systems, Google Ads.

#### **3. Server Proxies (Datacenter)**

* **Verdict:** Use only for simple tasks where anonymity is not important (technical parsing, tests). For serious work in Kameleo, they are **not recommended**, as they greatly reduce the quality of the profile in the anti-detect browser.

### **Part 2. Data Preparation**

For working with Kameleo, we recommend using high-quality proxies from [**CyberYozh App**](https://app.cyberyozh.com/proxy/).

After purchase, you will receive data in your personal account. You will need:

* **Host:** IP address (e.g., `172.98.60.180`)
* **Port:** Port (e.g., `58763`)
* **Username:** User login
* **Password:** Password

### **Part 3. Creating a Profile and Connecting a Proxy**

#### **Step 1. Launch and Base Selection**

Open Kameleo. On the main screen, click the **"New Profile"** button.

You will be offered to choose a **Base Profile**. This is a template on the basis of which your digital identity will be created.

* *Tip:* Choose a profile with a browser and OS version that is as fresh as possible, but not "beta".

#### **Step 2. Setting Parameters (Device Settings)**

In the window that opens, configure the main parameters:

* **Profile Name:** Set a name.
* **Device Type:** Desktop or Mobile.
* **OS / Browser:** Select the necessary combination (e.g., Chrome on Windows or Safari on iOS).

#### **Step 3. Connection Setup (Connection)**

Scroll down to the network settings section.

1. In the **Connection Mode** drop-down list, select the protocol. We strongly recommend **SOCKS5**. It supports UDP, works faster, and provides better anonymity than HTTP.
2. Enter your proxy data:
   * **Server:** IP address or host.
   * **Port:** Port.
   * **Username / Password:** Your authorization data.

The image shows a proxy server configuration dialog box with fields for entering data: IP address/host, port, proxy connection type (SOCKS5/HTTPS), as well as authentication fields (username and password). At the bottom of the window, there is a connection test button to verify the correctness of the entered data.*

#### **Step 4. Testing (Test Proxy)**

Never launch a profile without checking. Click the **"Test Proxy"** button.

Kameleo will check the connection and show:

* **Status:** Live (Working) or Dead (Not working).
* **Geolocation:** Country and region of the proxy.
* *Important:* Make sure the determined country matches the one you planned to use.

If the test is successful (green checkmark), click **"Save"** or immediately **"Start"**.

### **Part 4. Launch and Final Check**

After launch, a browser window will open. Kameleo will automatically adjust the time zone, language, and browser geolocation to your proxy's IP.

However, for complete confidence, go to `browserleaks.com/ip` or `whoer.net`.

**Checklist:**

1. **IP address:** Must match the one issued by the provider.
2. **DNS:** Must not point to your real country.
3. **WebRTC:** Must be either disabled or spoofed (Kameleo does this automatically, but a check won't hurt).

If all parameters are normal — your virtual profile is ready to work.

### **Conclusion**

Kameleo from Outis Nemo Ltd is a powerful emulation tool, but it requires a competent approach to IP selection.

* Emulating a **smartphone**? Take **Mobile Proxies**.
* Emulating a **PC**? Take **Residential Proxies**.

You can always find high-quality proxies for any device type in the [**CyberYozh App**](https://app.cyberyozh.com/catalog/) catalog. Good luck!
