ProxyNestHow to rotate proxies in Chrome automatically
Rotation means changing the proxy you use every so often — useful when you check search results or ads from several locations, spread load across a pool, or simply want the next proxy without opening a menu.
Two kinds of rotation
- Provider-side rotation: one gateway address (e.g.
gate.example.net:7000) gives a new exit IP per request or per session. Nothing to do in the browser. - Client-side rotation: you have a list of static proxies and the browser moves to the next one. That’s what a proxy manager does.
Rotating with ProxyNest
- Put the proxies into a group (set it on import or with Set group).
- Open Rotation, choose the group and an interval in minutes, and turn on Skip proxies whose last check failed.
- Switch to Proxy mode. ProxyNest moves to the next proxy on schedule; Next ⟳ in the popup or Alt+Shift+N rotates immediately.

What to expect
- Open pages keep their existing connections until they reload; new requests use the new proxy.
- Websites you’re logged in to may notice the IP change and ask you to sign in again — normal security behaviour.
- With rotating residential logins on the same gateway host:port, Chrome may reuse the first login for the session; prefer distinct ports or restart Chrome.
