MaskFog Integration

MaskFog + BytesFlows: isolated residential IP per browser profile

MaskFog focuses on fingerprint masking without heavy overhead — BytesFlows residential IPs add the network layer to MaskFog's browser-level masking for complete identity protection.

MaskFog profiles: proxy quality matters

Platforms detect multi-account operations through IP patterns — not just browser fingerprints.

Configure BytesFlows in MaskFog

Step-by-step guide for combined fingerprint + IP masking.

  1. 1

    Create a BytesFlows sub-user

    BytesFlows dashboard → Proxies → Residential → Sub-users → Add User. Create one sub-user per MaskFog profile for complete isolation.

  2. 2

    Open MaskFog profile settings

    In MaskFog, create a new profile or edit an existing one. Navigate to the Proxy or Network settings section.

  3. 3

    Enter proxy credentials

    Set proxy type to HTTP or SOCKS5. Host: p1.bytesflows.com, Port: 8001 (HTTP) or 1080 (SOCKS5). Username: your BytesFlows sub-user (optionally add -cc-XX for country targeting). Password: sub-user password.

  4. 4

    Test the proxy connection

    Use MaskFog's built-in proxy check or our proxy test tool to verify the exit IP shows a residential ISP (not a datacenter).

  5. 5

    Launch and verify

    Start the profile and browse to our proxy test tool to confirm your residential IP is active. Verify the ISP and geolocation match your target.

MaskFog proxy FAQ

Does MaskFog integrate with BytesFlows for combined fingerprint and IP protection?
MaskFog focuses on fingerprint masking without heavy overhead — BytesFlows residential IPs add the network layer to MaskFog's browser-level masking for complete identity protection. BytesFlows offers both HTTP (port 8001) and SOCKS5 (port 1080) proxy types with the same credentials — choose based on what MaskFog supports in its proxy configuration.
How many MaskFog profiles can I run simultaneously with BytesFlows?
BytesFlows does not limit concurrent connections by profile count. Your usage is tracked by bandwidth consumed. Create as many sub-users as profiles and run them simultaneously — each will route through a different residential IP.
Do I need a different BytesFlows sub-user for each MaskFog profile?
Yes, for complete IP isolation. Each sub-user gets its own proxy credential that can be assigned to a different geo target. This ensures no two profiles share an exit IP or ASN — the key requirement for multi-account isolation on major platforms.
