What is LAuth?
LAuth is one of the leading multi-login browsers built for managing multiple accounts. For example, social media marketers can manage multiple Facebook accounts without getting logged out and raising suspicion.
The browser creates separate profiles that are independent from each other. It’s like having virtual browsers within the browser that function with their own set of cookies and preferences.
LAuth also offers anti-detect properties that spoofs certain information to give higher anonymity. Effectively, each browser profile has its own unique fingerprint. Your device’s information is never revealed while using LAuth.
Residential proxies vs. ISP proxies
Residential proxies are sourced from real devices running a residential Internet connection that have volunteered to act as a node in the proxy network. These have high IP reputation because you appear as a legit home Internet user to the target website or service.
Ping Proxies has a strong network of 35M+ residential IPs spanning 195+ countries worldwide. With such a vast network, you can pick geo-locations right down to the ISP of your choice.
Residential proxies are dynamic, meaning that you’re not guaranteed a fixed IP address every time you connect and each IP address can be assigned for up to 24 hours only. Dynamic residential proxies work best for activities such as web scraping where you may need a different IP address for every new request to avoid IP bans.
However, there are instances where a static IP address proves better.
Enter ISP proxies; a kind of residential proxies with static IPs that are sourced directly from Internet Service Providers (ISP) like AT&T and Spectrum. These proxies prove instrumental in managing online accounts where frequently changing IP addresses can raise alarms and potentially get your accounts limited or blocked.
Should you pick datacenter proxies?
Datacenter proxies are the most common type and the go-to choice for most people looking for reliable proxies due to their affordability. They’re best for high-volume requests where the target website is not sensitive to the reputation of the IP address. And they’re also faster than residential proxies.
However, for a multi-login browser like LAuth, we recommend going with residential proxies if the goal is to manage multiple online accounts.

Setting Up Ping Proxies in LAuth

2. Inside the dashboard, you’ll have the option to sign up for the various proxy plans offered by Ping Proxies.

Now, proceed to the checkout and pay for the purchase through your Ping Proxies’ wallet balance or card.
3. Head over to the residential proxies generator here to start with your new plan.
4. On the page, you’ll have a few parameters to choose from for generating the proxies, such as country, city, ISP/ASN, and the number of IPs you want to generate. Click on Generate to see new proxies in the black box to the right.
5. Copy these proxies or export them for use in the next step.
6. Now, let’s return to the LAuth client. Click on an existing browser profile on the left column or create a new one. Click the three-dot menu and go to Edit profile preferences.
7. Switch to the Connection and proxy tab to configure the proxy server. Enter the info into the correct fields, or you can just copy one proxy from step 4 and paste it into the IP Address/Host field to automatically fill all the fields. Now, click on Save editions.
8. The last step is verifying the proxy server connection which you can do by clicking on the Test proxy button. Let the test run a few checks before everything turns up validated. You can also return to the browser and visit Pixelscan and iphey from LAuth’s suggestions to do a more comprehensive test on your proxy and browser fingerprint.
That’s it! It’s all set up for you now.
