How do I target Lexington in the proxy username?

Write the city into the proxy username. For Lexington, the segment is city-lexington, and it works best with the state segment state-ky in front of it.

  • USERNAME-country-us-state-ky-city-lexington: rotating Lexington IPs, a new connection usually gets a different one.
  • USERNAME-country-us-state-ky-city-lexington-zip-40511: narrows to ZIP 40511, one of 16 ZIP areas mostly inside the city.
  • USERNAME-country-us-state-ky-city-lexington-asn-20115: asks for an IP on Spectrum's network (AS20115) when one is online in Lexington.
  • USERNAME-country-us-state-ky-city-lexington-session-lexi01-ttl-20: keeps one Lexington IP for up to 20 minutes; it can change earlier if the home device goes offline.

City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. If a narrow request returns errors, drop the ZIP or ASN segment first, then the city. The full format is on the city targeting page.

What is the difference between a free Lexington proxy server and a residential proxy?

A free Lexington proxy server from a public list is usually a shared data-center or open machine, with no owner you can contact and no rules of use.

The Lexington segment is country-us-state-ky-city-lexington.

How many Lexington IPs does MetroProxies have?

MetroProxies does not publish IP counts per city. The number of residential devices online in Lexington changes through the day. City availability varies; the checkout shows what is online. Start with the 1 GB plan ($1.50) to test your own targets before you buy volume.

Can I keep the same Lexington IP for several minutes?

Add a session ID and a time to live to the username: USERNAME-country-us-state-ky-city-lexington-session-lexi01-ttl-20 keeps one Lexington exit for up to 20 minutes. Sessions last up to 30 minutes; the IP can change earlier if the residential device goes offline. Use a new session ID to get a new Lexington IP.

What phone area code should a Lexington test use?
