How Steam proxies work
A gaming proxy routes the connection supported by the client through an intermediate IP. It can be used with browser games, launchers and apps that allow HTTP, HTTPS or SOCKS5 settings.
A proxy helps you choose the connection country and keep one address for a gaming or test session.
Compatibility depends on the specific service and protocol. A proxy does not guarantee lower ping and may increase latency because of the extra hop.
