FAQ
What is an MTProto proxy?
An MTProto proxy is a specialized proxy protocol created by Telegram. It wraps Telegram traffic in cryptographic layers, making it highly resistant to deep packet inspection (DPI) and blocking while ensuring fast connection speeds.
How do I connect an MTProto proxy in Telegram?
To connect, use the link provided in your OKProxy dashboard. Clicking the link will open Telegram and prompt you to enable the proxy. You can also manually input the server address, port, and secret key (Secret Key) in Telegram Settings > Data and Storage > Proxy Settings.
Should I use a free MTProto proxy?
Free MTProto proxies are often heavily overloaded, leading to slow loading speeds and frequent disconnects. They also frequently inject sponsored channels into your chat list. Private MTProto servers from OKProxy offer clean channels, high speeds, and dedicated uptime.
Does Telegram support SOCKS5 proxies?
Yes, Telegram fully supports SOCKS5. You can buy SOCKS5 proxies from OKProxy (including residential and mobile options) and configure them in Telegram settings with your username and password.
Can I use OKProxy for Telegram bots and automation?
Absolutely. OKProxy provides high-speed, stable proxies that work perfectly with Python libraries like Telethon, Pyrogram, and python-telegram-bot, as well as Node.js and other languages.
