What is Primo Browser?

  • Individual Tab Privacy: Ensures each tab has its own distinct fingerprint and IP address, protecting your browsing activity.
  • Proxy Integration: Allows for the use of proxy servers, providing each tab with its own IP address for added security and anonymity.
  • Enhanced Functionality: Integrating SimplyNode's proxies maximizes the browser’s features, enhancing both security and privacy.

Step-by-step instruction

  1. Log in to the administrator panel at https://primoadmin.com/admin/login and download the file appropriate for your operating system.

Help with SimplyNode proxy configuration

There are various proxy types so when integrating SimplyNode proxies, choose HTTP or SOCKS5 protocol.

This is an example of a proxy string for a browser:

Step 1: Hostname Configuration

You need to copy the hostname/server address provided by SimplyNode.

Type proxy.simplynode.io into the host field

Step 2: Port number Configuration

SimplyNode offers you up to 1000 ports. The port number varies from 9000 to 18000.

Step 3: Username configuration

Insert the confidential SimplyNode proxy login.

Here you get the proxy username and password from the client portal.

Step 5: Proxy password

Insert the confidential SimplyNode proxy password.

You can find the password in your SimplyNode account. Proxy-type is the type of proxy you are using.
