XB22 vs XS Server Proxy Router
Three XProxy machines, two different jobs. A server makes proxies from SIM cards. The router sends your devices through proxies you already have. Pick by job first, then by size.
In short
The starter server. Small and energy-efficient, with XProxy software already on it. Plug in a USB hub of modems and go.
The big server. Same software, more memory, and room for many more modems.
Not a server. It makes no proxies. It takes proxies you have and forces each device onto the one you choose.
Which one do I need?
| If you… | Choose |
|---|---|
| You want to make mobile proxies from SIM cards, in a small setup | XB26 Tiny Server |
| You want a big farm, or you sell proxies, or you scrape a lot | Mini XS Server |
| You already have proxies and want every device on your network to use them, with nothing to install on each device | XProxy Router |
| You want both: your own mobile proxies, and every device on them | A server and the router together (see below) |

What the router does
- Nothing to install on your devices. A phone, laptop, smart TV or console joins the router by Wi-Fi or LAN. The router sends all of its traffic through the proxy you assigned.
- One proxy per device. Give each device its own A proxy is a middleman. Your app sends its traffic to the proxy, and the proxy passes it on to the website. The website sees the proxy’s IP address instead of yours. in the router's dashboard. HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5 work.
- Leak protection. DNS and WebRTC leaks are blocked at the router, which browsers set up by hand often miss.
- It does not make proxies. Connect it to proxies you already have: from an XProxy server, or from another provider.
- Built to be managed. It has a web dashboard and a REST API.
Use a server and the router together
You can use both: the server makes the mobile proxies, and the router puts every device on its own proxy.
- Set up the server and its modems. See Which kit do I have?.
- Connect the router to your network.
- Join your devices to the router's Wi-Fi or LAN.
- In the router's dashboard, give each device one of the proxy ports your server made.
