Dynamic Residential Proxy FAQ
FAQ about the usage of Dynamic Residential Proxies.
1. What is a Dynamic Residential Proxy?
A Dynamic Residential Proxy network consists of genuine IP addresses assigned by Internet Service Providers (ISPs). These IPs are tied to physical locations at country‑ or city‑level across the globe. Requests sent through Dynamic Residential Proxies appear legitimate, enabling you to collect public‑domain data efficiently.
2. Are PuraRoute’s Dynamic Residential IPs Compliant and Legal?
Compliance largely depends on how you use Dynamic Residential Proxies. There is no universal answer. Before conducting any activities with proxies, you must ensure that your data‑gathering activities do not violate any applicable laws and regulations.
3. What Are Dynamic Residential Proxies Used For?
Dynamic Residential Proxies are best suited for use‑cases such as ad verification, review monitoring, and travel information aggregation.
4. How Do Dynamic Residential Proxies Work?
Dynamic Residential Proxies route internet traffic via intermediate proxy servers, which alter the IP address associated with connection requests. What sets Dynamic Residential Proxies apart is that they connect to real‑world mobile and desktop end‑user devices, leveraging those devices as your connection medium.
5. Are Dynamic Residential Proxies Practical?
Dynamic Residential IPs are bound to physical locations, so they deliver authentic, legitimate‑looking traffic. This helps minimize IP bans and CAPTCHA challenges. Additionally, Dynamic Residential Proxies cover a broad range of geolocations, granting easier access to location‑specific content on a country or city granularity.
6. What Speed Can I Expect From Dynamic Residential Proxies?
Our guaranteed download speed ranges from 1 MB/s to 5 MB/s depending on target regions. Actual throughput is also subject to the bandwidth of your local network.
7. How Large Is PuraRoute’s Proxy IP Pool?
We currently maintain over 90 million proxies covering 195 locations worldwide.
8. What Is the Lifespan of Dynamic Residential Proxies?
Our Dynamic Residential Proxies rotate IP addresses automatically by default. If you need to retain the same IP for an extended period, selcet the Sticky session parameter. By default, this setting preserves the same IP for 5 minutes. You may customise the session duration for longer or shorter timeframes. The maximum hold time for a single IP is 30 minutes.
9. What Is a Sticky Session? How Long Can My IP Stay Unchanged?
Under pure rotating mode, IP addresses change automatically with no control or predictable duration. This mode fits scenarios requiring frequent IP changes to boost anonymity and evade tracking.
With sticky‑session mode, you can define how long one IP persists, typically within the 1‑30‑minute range.
10. What Is the Maximum Number of Sub‑Accounts I Can Create?
You may create up to 10 sub‑accounts. Should you require more sub‑accounts, please contact us.
11. How Are Dynamic Residential Proxies Billed?
Our Dynamic Residential Proxies are billed based on consumed traffic (both upstream and downstream), with no time‑based limits. To optimise service quality, select a plan aligned with your business scale to avoid traffic over‑limits.
12. Where Can I Check My Traffic Consumption?
You can view your remaining traffic quota under My products > Dynamic residential Proxies.
13. Does Purchased Traffic Expire? Can I Consume It In Batches?
Traffic purchased for Dynamic Residential Proxies is permanent.
We provide traffic‑history logs for you to monitor consumption, showing both used and remaining available data volume.
14. Why Does Proxy Detection Fail Within My Proxy Software?
More than 90 % of such failures stem from local network‑environment issues. First double‑check whether proxy credentials have been entered correctly. If you are running a VPN, verify whether your VPN operates in global mode and whether the VPN node supports traffic forwarding.
