You could set up the proxy on your computer to route all of the web requests originating from your computer to the proxy server. However, if you want to only route specific web requests, a better option is to set up the proxy on the browser. Let\u2019s go over on how to do it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is FoxyProxy Browser Extension?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The FoxyProxy browser extension would help you to navigate between multiple proxies seamlessly. With advanced configurations, it can also automatically switch between different proxies based on the ruleset. It is a great extension as a starting point and we will stick to using it for this blog post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can decide which browser you want to use. We are going to demonstrate Chrome and Firefox, both in this blog post. These two are widely used browser-types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By learning how to install FoxyProxy on Chrome, you would be able to install it on many other browsers as well such as Microsoft Edge, Opera and Brave Browser because these are all Chromium-based browsers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do note that even though the setup might be the same, some functionalities are different between the FoxyProxy extensions for Firefox and Chrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to install FoxyProxy Browser Extension on Chrome?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 1. Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/chromewebstore.google.com\">https:\/\/chromewebstore.google.com<\/a> and search for \u201cFoxyProxy\u201d and hit Enter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"544\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1.-foxyproxy-how-to-install-1024x544.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1.-foxyproxy-how-to-install-1024x544.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1.-foxyproxy-how-to-install-300x159.png 300w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1.-foxyproxy-how-to-install-768x408.png 768w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1.-foxyproxy-how-to-install-1536x815.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/1.-foxyproxy-how-to-install-2048x1087.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two FoxyProxy extensions \u2014 FoxyProxy and FoxyProxy Basic. The former is an advanced extension with additional customizability while the latter is a basic version with limited customizability. You can install one according to your requirements. We will go forward with the FoxyProxy because it has advanced features which we will cover in this blog post. The setup process remains the same for both of the extensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 2. Click on the FoxyProxy and click on the \u201cAdd to Chrome\u201d button on the top-right. Then confirm the pop-up and click on \u201cAdd extension\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"583\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2.-foxyproxy-add-to-chrome-1024x583.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2.-foxyproxy-add-to-chrome-1024x583.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2.-foxyproxy-add-to-chrome-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2.-foxyproxy-add-to-chrome-768x437.png 768w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2.-foxyproxy-add-to-chrome-1536x875.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/2.-foxyproxy-add-to-chrome-2048x1166.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3.

Open the \u201cOptions\u201d of the FoxyProxy extension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, there are two ways to add the proxies. One way is to add it one by one using the \u201cProxies\u201d tab. Another way is to add it in bulk using the \u201cImport\u201d tab. For the purposes of this article, I only need to add one proxy. Hence, I will go with the \u201cProxies\u201d tab. For the purposes of this article, I\u2019m using proxies obtained by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/?utm_source=blog\">ProxySwag<\/a> which is one of the leading ISP Proxies providers serving reliable ISP Proxies perfectly tailored for web scraping, multi-account management, automation and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 2. Click on the \u201cProxies tab\u201d, then click on the \u201cAdd\u201d button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"212\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.1-1024x212.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.1-1024x212.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.1-300x62.png 300w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.1-768x159.png 768w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.1-1536x318.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.1-2048x424.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we have to use the dashboard of your proxy provider to view the required fields to fill into the FoxyProxy form. For example, I can see this on my <a href=\"https:\/\/dashboard.proxyswag.com\">ProxySwag Dashboard<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"621\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.2-1024x621.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.2-1024x621.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.2-300x182.png 300w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.2-768x466.png 768w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.2-1536x932.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-2.2-2048x1243.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Step 3.

You can ask your provider which country and city are the proxies geolocated in, and add that information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be on Chrome and you may be unable to add username and password. In that case you need to whitelist your IP in your proxy provider\u2019s dashboard. Depending on your provider, they may not support this. If you do not see this option in their dashboard, it might be better to confirm regarding this by contacting them. ProxySwag supports this fully and hence I\u2019ve whitelisted my IP Address as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"493\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-3.2-1024x493.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-3.2-1024x493.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-3.2-300x145.png 300w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-3.2-768x370.png 768w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-3.2-1536x740.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Step-3.2.png 1814w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, if you\u2019re choosing SOCKS5 protocol, make sure to enable the Proxy DNS if your proxy provider supports this. Proxy DNS essentially makes the DNS requests on the proxy server and adds another privacy layer i.e you will not be caught during the DNS leak tests. As ProxySwag supports this as well, I\u2019ve enabled it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Advanced Settings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Go to the \u201cOptions\u201d tab again to configure Advanced Settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"579\" src=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Advanced-Settings-1024x579.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-234\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Advanced-Settings-1024x579.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Advanced-Settings-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Advanced-Settings-768x435.png 768w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Advanced-Settings-1536x869.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.proxyswag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Advanced-Settings-2048x1159.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Make sure you are changing the \u201cLimit WebRTC\u201d to \u201cProxy Only\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a better setting to not leak your IP Address via the WebRTC protocol. Many of the websites do not use this protocol. But for those who do, you would be leaking your real IP Address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. You can check \u201cEnable Sync\u201d to synchronise global exclude, proxies and patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3.
