Facebook “Session Expired” and Repeated Logouts on a Proxy
Why the login Facebook stored stops counting, which checks to run in what order, and what you can control on the proxy side.
The three most common causes
1. The cookies are gone. Chrome's help says that deleting cookies may sign you out of sites that remember you. A cookie cleaner, a privacy extension, or a browser profile that does not keep its data between sessions has the same effect, and it looks like “session expired” on the next visit.
2. The session was ended. Facebook lists every login under Password and security, in the Where you're logged in section, with date, time, location and device type. Selecting a session and choosing Log out ends it immediately on that device. You, a teammate who has the password, or someone else can end a session this way.
3. The connection changed under the session. A rotating proxy gives a new exit IP for each new connection, so the location Facebook sees can change in the middle of one login. Facebook does not document what ends a session, but this is the part you can remove: use one static IP for the account.
Cookies are deleted on close, by a setting or an extension
Browser cookie settings; test in a private window with extensions off
Logged out after minutes or hours
The proxy exit changes, or the session was ended elsewhere
Run ipinfo.io through the proxy twice; open Where you're logged in
Logged out on every device at once
Sessions were ended in Password and security, or the password changed
Check Where you're logged in; if it was not you, use facebook.com/hacked on a device you used before
Login loop or a request to confirm it's you
Facebook wants more proof before it keeps the session
Complete what Facebook asks honestly; check the IP and the proxy settings; ticket with us if the IP itself fails
Source: Facebook Help Center pages “Log out of Facebook on another device” and “Recover a hacked account”, and Chrome Help, read 15 November 2026. Facebook does not publish a full list of reasons a session ends.
Open Password and security and then Where you're logged in. Each entry shows date, time, location and device type. If you see sessions you do not know, go to facebook.com/hacked on a device you have used before. If they are all yours, continue.
Open Facebook in a window with extensions off. If the session now lasts, turn extensions back on one at a time; cookie cleaners and privacy tools are the usual suspects.
Step 3: Make sure the browser keeps cookies
Check that nothing deletes cookies automatically. If you use a separate browser profile for each account, check that the profile saves its data between launches. Chrome warns that deleting cookies can sign you out of sites that remember you.
Step 4: Test the proxy twice
Run the curl loop below. The same IP both times means a static exit; two different IPs mean the exit rotates, which is not what you want for a logged-in account.
Expected result The same IP twice for a static IP.
Chrome and Edge do not support SOCKS5 with a username and password, so for a browser use an HTTP asset (port 2222). If the browser asks for the proxy login again and again, see the proxy authentication guide.
Step 6: Sign in once on the account's usual IP and leave it
Sign in on the IP you use for this account and finish any check Facebook shows. Do not open the same account from several IPs at the same time, and do not share the password: Facebook's terms say you must not.
Before continuing Do not log the account in and out repeatedly from different IPs to see which one holds.
Check whether the exit IP stays the same
# Run twice, a minute apart: is the exit IP the same?
for i in 1 2; do curl -s -x http://LOGIN:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT https://ipinfo.io/ip; echo; sleep 60; done
# SOCKS5 asset (port 3333)
curl -s -x socks5h://LOGIN:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT https://ipinfo.io/json
Example only: replace LOGIN, PASSWORD, HOST and PORT with the values from My assets.
Symptom, check, action
Logged out every time the browser closes
Check Cookie settings and extensions; does the same happen in a private window with extensions off?
Fix Allow Facebook's cookies to stay, and remove or reconfigure the cleaner.
Stop when If a private window with extensions off also logs you out, the proxy is not the cause.
Logged out after a while and ipinfo.io shows different IPs
Check The curl loop above.
Fix Use a static ISP IP, or a fixed session if you use a rotating line, for this account.
Stop when Do not keep signing in while the IP keeps changing.
Logged out on every device and it was not you
Check Where you're logged in, and the recover-a-hacked-account page.
Fix Follow Facebook's recovery steps from a device you have used before.
Stop when Do not keep using the account through the proxy until you are sure it is yours alone.
The page does not load through the proxy at all
Check The proxy fails before Facebook is reached.
Fix Follow the proxy address and port guide.
Stop when If curl also fails, send a ticket with the order number.
What a proxy cannot fix
A proxy changes the address Facebook sees. It does not change Facebook's decisions about an account. The terms say you must provide accurate information, create only one account of your own and not share your password or give others access to it, and they do not allow collecting data from Facebook with automated means without permission.
We do not claim that a static IP stops logouts or security checks. It removes one cause you control, which is an exit that changes between requests. For several people on one Page, use the access options Facebook provides.
For an account you log in to every day, a static ISP IP is the usual fit: it stays the same for the whole lease. One IP costs US$0.50 for 1 day or US$7.99 for 30 days (about US$0.27 a day, 7.99 ÷ 30), the same in every country. There is no free trial, and stock for each country is shown on the order page.
Open My assets and copy HOST, PORT, USERNAME and PASSWORD. HTTP uses port 2222 and SOCKS5 uses port 3333 on proxy.proxy302.com.
Step 3
Enter them in the browser profile you use for this Facebook account only.
Step 4
Open https://ipinfo.io/json through the proxy to confirm the country, then sign in.
FAQ
Why does Facebook say my session expired?
The stored login no longer counts: the cookie was deleted, the session was ended in Password and security, or the browser did not send it. Facebook does not publish a full list of reasons, so work through the checks above.
Not by itself. A working proxy that keeps the same exit leaves your cookies alone. Typical triggers are cleared cookies, wrong proxy settings, or an exit that changes between requests.
Should I clear cookies to fix it?
Only Facebook's, not everything. Chrome warns that deleting cookies can sign you out of other sites that remember you.
Can I use the same Facebook login from several IPs?
Facebook's terms say you must not share your password or give others access to your account. For one account, use one IP; for a team, use the access options Facebook offers.
Facebook reads your IP at every login; this guide explains what it can see, why location jumps trigger checks, and why a long-lived account suits a static IP.
