Same label.
Same exit.

Sticky, not static

A sticky session is not a static IP.

Static residential proxies, also called ISP proxies, give you one fixed IP for days or months. PacketStream does not sell them. Every exit is a real home connection, so it is there only while its Packeter is online.

• Same exit, new connections. Every new connection with the same session label goes to the same exit. If that exit goes offline, connections fail until it comes back. The label never moves to another IP.
• Rolling 60-minute timeout. Each successful new connection restarts the timer. After 60 minutes with no successful connection, the label gets a new exit.
• Check before key steps. When a step must use the same IP, check the exit IP first.
• Same price. Sticky and rotating traffic both cost $1.00/GB.

Use it for

Workflows that need one consistent exit.

• Localized website QA — inspect a site from one consistent country-targeted vantage point.
• Multi-step testing — preserve one exit while testing stateful journeys on sites you operate or are authorized to test.
• Bounded monitoring — keep one vantage point for workflows that connect at least once every 60 minutes.
• Application testing — a reproducible network identity for QA.
