Watch out

Wget takes the proxy from environment variables, not from a flag — there is no `-x`. Credentials go in `--proxy-user`/`--proxy-password`, and `https_proxy` must be set separately from `http_proxy` or HTTPS requests go direct.

Configuration

export http_proxy="http://proxy.eveses.com:12321"
export https_proxy="$http_proxy"

wget --proxy-user="eveses_user_country-us" \
     --proxy-password="YOUR_PROXY_PASSWORD" \
     "https://target-site.com"

# Per-command, without touching the environment:
wget -e use_proxy=yes -e http_proxy=proxy.eveses.com:12321 "https://target-site.com"

The geo and the session live in the username, not in the host or the port. Every configuration on this page stays exactly as it is when you move country — you edit one string. 199 countries are addressable, with city and state tokens inside most of them.

FAQ

How do I set a proxy in Wget?›
Point it at proxy.eveses.com on port 12321 for HTTP, or 32325 for SOCKS5, and authenticate with your Eveses proxy username and password. The exact syntax is in the snippet above. Wget takes the proxy from environment variables, not from a flag — there is no `-x`. Credentials go in `--proxy-user`/`--proxy-password`, and `https_proxy` must be set separately from `http_proxy` or HTTPS requests go direct.
How do I choose the country Wget exits from?›
Append a geo token to the USERNAME rather than changing the host: eveses_user_country-de reaches Germany, eveses_user_country-us the United States. 199 countries are addressable this way, and city or state tokens narrow it further. Nothing else in your Wget configuration changes.
How do I keep the same IP across requests in Wget?›
Add a session token — eveses_user_country-us_session-ab12cd34_lifetime-30m — and every request carrying that username exits from the same address until the lifetime runs out. Drop the token and each request rotates to a fresh IP.
What does this cost?›
Residential traffic is billed by the gigabyte from your Eveses wallet: $7.35/GB at 1 GB, falling to $2.57/GB in volume. There is no per-tool charge, and the same credentials work in every tool at once.
