16 Mar 2026 · 925 views
Yes, Inside Proxy supports both HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS5 protocols.

HTTP/HTTPS
Port: 8080
Format: http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@proxy.insideproxy.net:8080
Supports both HTTP and HTTPS (SSL) connections.

SOCKS5
Port: 8080
Format: socks5://USERNAME:PASSWORD@proxy.insideproxy.net:8080
More flexible, works with any protocol including UDP.

WHICH SHOULD I USE?
HTTP/HTTPS: Best for web scraping, browsers, and most applications.
SOCKS5: Best for games, torrents, custom protocols, and applications that need full traffic routing.
