FoxyProxy + Proxy302: Chrome & Firefox Setup in 3 Steps

Fill five fields in FoxyProxy and send Chrome or Firefox through your Proxy302 exit — HTTP on port 2222, SOCKS5 on port 3333, one username and password — and nothing in your operating system's proxy settings changes.

One gateway, five fields

FoxyProxy sets the proxy for the browser it runs in — your operating system's proxy settings stay untouched. Every value except the credentials is the same for everyone: the gateway host is proxy.proxy302.com, HTTP answers on port 2222 and SOCKS5 on port 3333, with username and password authentication.

The credentials belong to the proxy you generated, not to your account: HOST, PORT, USERNAME and PASSWORD are shown on the My assets page of the console for each proxy, and the Connect page shows a ready example with your own endpoint.

The five fields that matter

Proxy type: HTTP or SOCKS5 — rotating residential supports both; a static ISP IP works only with the protocol chosen at purchase

Host or IP address: proxy.proxy302.com — or the HOST shown for this proxy in My assets

Port: 2222 for HTTP · 3333 for SOCKS5

Username: USERNAME from this proxy's row in My assets

Password: PASSWORD from the same row

From zero to a routed browser

  1. Step 1

    Generate the proxy. In the console, generate a rotating residential proxy (protocol HTTP or SOCKS5) or a static ISP IP (pick its protocol at purchase). Open My assets and copy USERNAME and PASSWORD from its row.

  2. Step 2

    Add it in FoxyProxy. Click the FoxyProxy toolbar icon, open Options, go to the Proxies tab and click Add. Fill in a title, the type HTTP or SOCKS5, hostname proxy.proxy302.com, port 2222 or 3333 to match the type, and the username and password — then click Save. FoxyProxy notes that changes take effect only after they are saved.

  3. Step 3

    Activate and verify. Click the toolbar icon again and select the proxy: with "Individual Proxy" the whole browser goes through it, with "Proxy by Patterns" only matching URLs do. Check the exit at ipinfo.io — the IP and country shown should be the proxy's, not your own. The popup's IP button shows your IP from FoxyProxy's own servers.

Send only one website through the proxy

Switch the toolbar to "Proxy by Patterns" and give your proxy include patterns: FoxyProxy checks active proxies in order, skips a proxy whose exclude pattern matches the URL, and uses the first proxy whose include pattern matches. When no pattern matches, the connection is made without a proxy — so everything you did not list stays direct, with no catch-all rule to maintain. The menu entry appears once at least one include pattern is set.

Patterns come in three types — Wildcard (glob), Match Pattern and Regular Expression — with a built-in pattern tester on the patterns page. Wildcards match substrings of the URL: the plain string example.com matches the site and its subdomains, but also any URL that merely contains the string. Match patterns are stricter and must include scheme and path: *://*.example-store.com/* matches the bare domain and every subdomain, and nothing else.

What a pattern matches, in FoxyProxy's own examples

What a pattern matches, in FoxyProxy's own examples
ItemMatchesDoes not match
example.com (Wildcard)https://example.com/ and http://help.example.com/ — plus any URL containing the stringhttps://example.org/
*.example.com (Wildcard)http://help.example.com/https://example.com/ — the bare domain needs its own pattern
*://*.example.com/* (Match)http://example.com/ and https://help.example.com/abchttps://example.org/
*://example.com/ (Match)http://example.com/ and https://example.com/http://example.com/abc and any subdomain

Match and no-match examples taken from the official FoxyProxy extension help, read on 28 October 2026. To cover a bare domain and its subdomains with one strict rule, use the Match pattern *://*.example.com/*; with wildcards, add two patterns (example.com and *.example.com) and remember wildcards match by substring. The help also advises including :// in wildcard patterns so they match the host part, and notes that a leading or trailing * is unnecessary and slows matching down.

Chrome vs Firefox: where SOCKS5 with a password works

This difference is documented in FoxyProxy's official extension help, not guesswork. The username-and-password note on the proxy form reads: "SOCKS5 username and password is only supported by Firefox (not available on Chrome)". The authentication summary states it again — "SOCKS5 proxy servers authentication (Firefox only); Chrome does not support SOCKS authentication".

With Proxy302's username-password authentication that means: port 3333 needs the Firefox build of FoxyProxy. On Chrome or Edge, authenticated SOCKS5 will not pass — use HTTP on port 2222 instead. DNS behaves in both browsers, and FoxyProxy documents how: on Chrome, name resolution for SOCKS5 is "always done proxy side"; in Firefox it follows FoxyProxy's Proxy DNS option, described as "Option to pass DNS to the SOCKS proxy when using SOCKS (defaults to true)" — so DNS goes to the proxy unless you have turned that option off.

Common errors and what to check

Nothing connects at all: Type against port: HTTP goes with 2222, SOCKS5 with 3333, host proxy.proxy302.com. And click Save — unsaved changes do not take effect.

Authentication rejected: Re-copy USERNAME and PASSWORD from this proxy's row in My assets; credentials belong to the proxy, not the account.

SOCKS5 on 3333 fails only in Chrome or Edge: Expected: Chrome does not support SOCKS authentication. Use the Firefox build for SOCKS5, or HTTP on 2222 in Chrome.

Site still shows your real IP: The toolbar mode is Disable, or the pattern does not match the site's URL — paste the URL into the pattern tester.

Everything goes through the proxy: The toolbar is on "Individual Proxy"; switch to "Proxy by Patterns" so only matching URLs are proxied.

DNS looks local while SOCKS5 is on: On Chrome, SOCKS5 name resolution is always done proxy side. In Firefox, check the proxy's Proxy DNS option — FoxyProxy documents it as on by default.

FoxyProxy or the Proxy302 browser extension?

Proxy302 has its own browser extension: in the console open My assets, click More actions on the proxy's row, choose Use extension (extension v1.5 or newer) and press Connect — no host, port or password typing. Chrome and Edge install it from a .zip download, 360 Browser from a .crx file. It works with HTTP proxies — the rotating residential gateway is proxy.proxy302.com port 2222 — and does not support SOCKS5: the guide notes that Chrome cannot authenticate against SOCKS5 proxies and suggests an antidetect browser or a phone app when you need SOCKS5. The closest it gets to per-site routing is Quick access, which binds frequently used websites to a proxy so the extension can open them in one click.

What FoxyProxy costs, and what Proxy302 charges

The FoxyProxy extensions are free and open source — FoxyProxy's site describes its proxy and VPN management tools as free, open-source software, funded by donations. Basic and Standard are both free downloads; Standard simply adds the pattern features this page uses.

On the Proxy302 side you pay for traffic, not for the integration: rotating residential costs from US$1.50 per GB on the Budget line (US$1.35 per GB at 100 GB) and US$5.00 per GB on Premium (US$4.50 per GB at 100 GB); the minimum purchase is 1 GB, traffic is prepaid per GB, purchased GB never expires, and there is no subscription.

FAQ

How do I add a proxy to FoxyProxy in Chrome?

Install FoxyProxy Standard, click the toolbar icon, open Options, go to the Proxies tab and click Add. Fill in the type (HTTP or SOCKS5), host proxy.proxy302.com, port 2222 or 3333, and the username and password from My assets; click Save and select the proxy from the toolbar menu.

What is the FoxyProxy extension used for?

It switches your browser between a direct connection and a proxy without touching system-wide proxy settings. Basic switches the whole browser with one click; Standard can also switch by URL patterns, so only chosen sites go through the proxy.

Does FoxyProxy support SOCKS5 with a username and password?

In Firefox, yes. In Chrome and Edge, no — FoxyProxy's help states SOCKS5 username and password is only supported by Firefox, because Chrome does not support SOCKS authentication. Use the Firefox build for port 3333, or HTTP on port 2222 in Chrome.

How do I make only one website go through the proxy?

Switch the toolbar to "Proxy by Patterns" and add an include pattern to your proxy, for example the Match pattern *://*.example-store.com/*. URLs that match no pattern connect directly, so nothing else changes. Test the site's full URL in the pattern tester if traffic still leaks.

Should I use FoxyProxy or the Proxy302 browser extension?

Use the official Proxy302 extension for the fastest HTTP setup: My assets, More actions, Use extension, Connect — it works with HTTP proxies on port 2222. Use FoxyProxy Standard when you need SOCKS5 in the browser, per-site patterns, or Firefox.

How much does Proxy302 cost to use with FoxyProxy?

The FoxyProxy extensions are free. You pay only for Proxy302 traffic: rotating residential from US$1.50/GB on the Budget line (US$1.35/GB at 100 GB) and US$5.00/GB on Premium, 1 GB minimum, prepaid, with purchased GB never expiring.
