Proxy302 Chrome Extension: Install and Connect in 3 Steps
Switch your browser to a Proxy302 exit with one click.
What the extension is for
The Proxy302 extension routes one browser through a proxy without touching the rest of your computer. It signs in to your account, shows the current exit IP and can pick up a proxy you send from My assets with one click.
It works over HTTP only, because Chrome cannot authenticate against SOCKS5 proxies. If your asset is SOCKS5, use an antidetect browser or a phone app instead, or generate an HTTP proxy for the extension (rotating residential: choose HTTP, port 2222).
Install the extension
Download it
In the console open Connect > Browser extension. Chrome and Edge use the .zip; 360 Browser uses the .crx.
Expected result The file is saved on your computer.
Unzip and load it
Unzip the .zip to a folder. Open chrome://extensions (Edge: edge://extensions), turn on Developer mode, click Load unpacked and pick the unzipped Proxy-chrome-extension folder. For 360 Browser, install the .crx directly.
Expected result A Proxy302 icon appears in the toolbar.
Sign in
Click the Proxy302 icon, press Log in and finish signing in on the page that opens. Return to the extension.
Expected result The popup shows your account.
Send a proxy to the extension
Open My assets
In the console open My assets and find the HTTP proxy you want to use.
Use extension
On that row open More actions and choose Use extension. The extension sets itself up. This needs extension v1.5 or later; if it is not detected, refresh the page and check that the extension is enabled and allowed to run on proxy302.com.
Expected result A message says the proxy was sent to the extension.
Connect
Click the Proxy302 icon and press Connect. The popup shows the current exit IP.
Expected result The exit IP and country match what you bought.
Check the result
Open ipinfo.io. The IP and country shown should be the proxy’s, not your own.
Expected result ipinfo.io shows the proxy exit.
Which proxies the extension accepts
Scroll horizontally with the arrow keys to read all content.
| Criterion | Works with the extension? | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Rotating residential, HTTP | Yes | Generate it with the HTTP protocol (gateway proxy.proxy302.com, port 2222). |
| Static residential, HTTP | Yes | Use the address and port on the asset. |
| Datacenter, HTTP | Yes | Datacenter IPs support HTTP and SOCKS5 (since 17 October 2026); use one bought as HTTP. |
| Any SOCKS5 proxy | No | Use an antidetect browser or a phone app, or get an HTTP proxy for the extension. |
The protocol is fixed per asset: check it on the asset row in My assets before you send it to the extension.
In mainland China
Direct connections to the proxy usually fail from mainland China. Download and run the Helper first, then tick Use Helper in the extension. The extension fills in the Helper’s local address for you.
Quick fixes

Fix Check the asset status in My assets, or use another proxy.
The exit IP did not change
Check Another proxy or VPN extension may be fighting for control of the browser, or the proxy was never connected.
Fix Disable other proxy extensions, press Connect again and recheck at ipinfo.io.
HTTP 407 or proxy authentication failed
Check The asset may have expired or run out of traffic, or the credentials changed after you regenerated the proxy.
Fix Send the proxy to the extension again from My assets.
Stop when Do not keep reconnecting before you have checked the asset status.
Extension FAQ
Which browsers are supported?
Chrome and Edge use the .zip download, 360 Browser uses the .crx. Other Chromium browsers can usually load the unzipped folder in the same way.
Does the extension change my whole computer?
No. It proxies only the browser it is installed in. For the whole computer, change the system proxy or use the Helper.
What is Quick access?
Quick access in the left menu of the console binds frequently used websites to a proxy so the extension can open them in one click. It needs a current extension version.
Why can’t I use my SOCKS5 proxy here?
Chrome cannot authenticate against SOCKS5 proxies, so the extension supports HTTP only. Use an antidetect browser or a phone app for SOCKS5.
