Connection Verification
Open a new tab and visit WhatIsMyIPAddress.com. The IP address and location displayed should now match your assigned HighProxies IP.
Locating Your Proxy Credentials
All required values are available in your HighProxies control panel on the My Proxies page under your active proxy package. You can access them directly here:
Host:
proxyIPPort:
proxyPORTUsername:
proxyusernamePassword:
proxypassword
Troubleshooting Tip: Copy and paste these values exactly as shown to avoid typos. If you encounter a “proxy authentication failed” error, it almost always means the username or password was entered incorrectly.
Figure: Example WonderSwitcher configuration. Do not use these example credentials; always use your own from the HighProxies control panel.
