How to Set Up a Proxy in Genlogin: Step-by-Step Guide

To set up a proxy in Genlogin, create a profile, choose Your Proxy in the network section, enter the host, port, username, and password, click Check Proxy, and save the profile. If you work with many profiles, import a whole proxy list through Proxy Manager and then assign proxies to profiles. Below we go through both methods step by step.

What Genlogin Is

Genlogin is an anti-detect browser designed for working with multiple accounts on a single device. The program allows users to create separate browser profiles with unique environment parameters: IP address, user-agent, system language, time zone, and other characteristics that websites use to identify users.

The browser is focused on tasks that require the separation of working environments and management of a large number of accounts. It is used in digital marketing, traffic arbitrage, SMM, e-commerce, SEO, and web task automation.

Among the key features of Genlogin:

  • creating and managing multiple profiles;
  • configuring the browser fingerprint;
  • connecting proxies;
  • automating actions;
  • team collaboration;
  • support for different browser engines.

Genlogin is available for Windows and macOS. The free plan allows the use of a limited number of profiles, while advanced features are available in paid plans.

Why Connect Proxies in Genlogin

Even when using an anti-detect browser, websites still analyze the user’s IP address. If multiple accounts operate from the same IP, this may lead to restrictions, additional verification checks, or bans.

Proxies make it possible to assign a separate IP to each profile. As a result, browser sessions become more independent from one another, and working with multiple accounts becomes more stable and predictable.

In Genlogin, you can:

  • connect proxies individually;
  • import proxy lists in bulk;
  • use HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 proxies;
  • test the connection before launching a profile.

Installing and Preparing Genlogin

Before configuring residential proxies, the browser itself must be prepared.

Download Genlogin from the official website and install the program on your computer. After launching it, you will need to create an account and sign in.

For stable operation, it is recommended to use:

  • Windows 10 or newer, or macOS;
  • at least 8 GB of RAM;
  • a modern multi-core processor.

How to Add a Single Proxy in Genlogin

This method is suitable if you need to manually connect a proxy to a separate profile.

Step 1. Creating a Profile

In the browser interface, open the Create Profile section. Specify the profile name and basic parameters.

Step 2. Opening Proxy Settings

In the profile settings, open the network section and select the option to connect your own proxy — Your Proxy.

After that, a form for entering connection parameters will appear.

Step 3. Entering Proxy Data

Fill in the following fields:

  • Host or IP;
  • Port;
  • Username;
  • Password;
  • connection type — HTTP or SOCKS5.

If a rotating proxy is used, the provider’s gateway domain name is usually specified instead of an IP address.

Step 4. Checking the Connection

After entering the data, click Check Proxy. Genlogin will verify the connection availability and configuration correctness. For a second look outside the browser, our proxy checker shows the status, exit IP, country and city.

If the built-in check works incorrectly, you can change the IP verification service in the settings.

Step 5. Saving the Profile

After successful verification, save the profile using the Create Profile button. The new profile will appear in the general list and will be ready to launch.

How to Import a Proxy List

When working with a large number of profiles, it is more convenient to use bulk proxy addition through Proxy Manager.

Step 1. Preparing the List

The proxy list can be prepared in TXT or CSV format. The lines usually look like this:

http://login:password@IP:PORT

or

socks5://IP:PORT:login:password

Genlogin supports bulk import of up to 100 proxies at the same time.

Step 2. Opening Proxy Manager

In the browser sidebar menu, open the Proxy Manager section and click Add Proxy.

Step 3. Adding the List

Select the bulk addition option and paste the proxy list into the text field.

After insertion, Genlogin will automatically recognize the format and populate the proxy table.

Step 4. Checking Proxies

Click Check to test the availability of all connections.

If individual proxies contain authorization errors or an incorrect format, the browser will display a notification.

How to Assign a Proxy to a Profile

After adding a proxy, it must be assigned to a specific profile.

To do this:

1. Create a new profile.

2. Go to the network section.

3. Select a previously added proxy from the list.

4. Save the changes.

After launching the profile, the browser will automatically use the selected connection.

Features of Working with Proxies in Genlogin

Before launching profiles in bulk, it is worth considering several nuances:

  • it is preferable to assign a separate proxy to each account;
  • mixing different proxy types within one project may cause instability;
  • when importing in bulk, it is important to follow the line formatting correctly;
  • the “@” and “:” characters inside additional fields may sometimes cause processing errors;
  • free proxies often work unstably and are more likely to encounter restrictions.

Additional Features of Genlogin

In addition to proxy support, Genlogin offers a set of tools for managing browser environments:

  • action automation without programming;
  • multithreaded operation;
  • profile synchronization;
  • collaborative teamwork;
  • built-in session management tools.

The browser interface is divided into several main sections:

  • Profiles;
  • Proxy Manager;
  • Automation;
  • Store;
  • Settings;
  • Help.

Genlogin Proxy FAQ

How do I add a proxy in Genlogin?

Create a profile, open the network section, and choose Your Proxy. Enter the host or IP, port, username, password, and connection type, click Check Proxy, and save the profile with Create Profile.

Can I import many proxies into Genlogin at once?

Yes. Open Proxy Manager, click Add Proxy, choose bulk addition, and paste a list with one proxy per line. Genlogin supports bulk import of up to 100 proxies at the same time.

Which proxy types does Genlogin support?

Genlogin works with HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 proxies. Select the same type that your proxy provider issued, otherwise the connection will fail.

What should I do if Check Proxy fails in Genlogin?

Check the host, port, username, and password, and make sure the line format is correct. If the built-in check itself works incorrectly, change the IP verification service in the Genlogin settings.

Conclusion

Genlogin combines profile management tools, browser fingerprint configuration, and proxy support within a single interface. The browser is suitable for working with a large number of accounts, automating actions, and separating browser environments.

For stable operation, it is important to configure proxies correctly and assign a separate connection to each profile. The built-in Proxy Manager allows users both to manually connect individual proxies and to bulk import ready-made lists, which is especially convenient when working with dozens of accounts simultaneously. The proxy setup in GoLogin and AntBrowser works in a similar way.
