A Syrian IP address in the browser only
Sometimes you only need one Syrian website and do not want the whole device to go through Syria. The syriaproxy extension for Chrome and Edge does that: what you open in the browser exits from the Syriatel 4G network inside Syria, and other programs are not affected.
Supported browsers
- Chrome on Windows, macOS and Linux.
- Edge on Windows and macOS.
Installation
The extension is installed from a file you download from our site, so you turn on developer mode once.
- Download the extension. Get the file from Extension setup, then extract it to a folder you will keep. The browser runs the extension from that folder.
- Turn on developer mode. Type
chrome://extensionsin the address bar (in Edge:edge://extensions) and switch on Developer mode. - Load the folder. Click Load unpacked and select the folder you extracted.
- Sign in. Click the extensions icon in the browser toolbar, then syriaproxy, and enter your account's email address and password.
- Connect. Click Connect.
What goes through Syria and what does not
- Everything you open in this browser exits with a Syrian address, encrypted from your device to Syria.
- Domain names (DNS) for what you open in the browser are resolved inside Syria by Syriatel's resolvers.
- Other programs, such as email and messaging apps, keep your normal connection.
If you need the whole device on a Syrian address, use the desktop app instead; see Syrian VPN on Windows and Linux.
Check your address
After connecting, open ipinfo.io in the same browser. It should show Syria as the country and Syriatel as the network. Open it in another browser without the extension and you will see your usual address.
Questions
Does the extension work in Firefox or Safari?
No. The extension is for Chrome and Edge. For other browsers, use the app, WireGuard or the proxy.
I deleted the folder and the extension stopped. What now?
Download the file again, extract it to a permanent folder, and load it again from the extensions page.
Does browser usage come from my normal balance?
Yes. One balance covers all your devices and ways of connecting, at $5.00 per GB. See Pricing.
Does the extension log the sites I visit?
No. We do not log the sites you visit or the content of your traffic.
