Illinois proxies (IL)

About the state

In Illinois the main market is the Chicago area, including suburbs such as Aurora, Joliet and Naperville. For tasks tied to Chicago, set the city: the state parameter also gives addresses outside the metro area, including Rockford and Peoria. The whole state is on Central Time.

How to get an address in Illinois

In the dashboard generator choose the USA and switch on advanced mode. The state is set with a parameter in the username: USERNAME__cr.us;state.illinois. It works with any port: 823 or 824 give a new address in the state on every request, and sticky ports 10000-20000 keep one address for 1 to 120 minutes.

Traffic with precise geo (state, city, ZIP or provider ASN) counts double; choosing only the country costs nothing extra. Whether addresses are available in a given state depends on what the pool has at that moment: if the connection fails, try again later or use a wider area.

Largest cities in Illinois

To narrow it down to a city, add the city parameter: USERNAME__cr.us;city.chicago. Write the name in Latin letters, lowercase, with no spaces.

Time zone for your profile

So that your browser profile doesn't look inconsistent, set the state's time zone: Central Time (America/Chicago). If the state has several time zones, use the one for the city your address comes from. Antidetect browsers usually set the time zone from the IP: check that the option is on, using the My IP page.
