# Edge

Intro

This page will explain how to use proxies through the Microsoft Edge browser without the need of any add

### Requirements

* Make sure no other VPNs or proxies are active.
* Our proxy endpoint and port, which is proxy.goproxies.com:1080, or instead of 'proxy', make it proxy-america, proxy-europe or proxy-asia for Americas, Europe and Africa, and Oceania respectively if you're only planning to use those regions, as automatic routing of 'proxy' endpoint will be redundant for you then.
* Your goproxies API User (Also called sub-user) username and password.
