## How do I target Fidium in the proxy username?

Add `asn-13977` to your username. The full format is `USERNAME-country-{cc}-state-{state}-city-{city}-zip-{zip}-asn-{asn}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}`; every segment except the country is optional.

- `USERNAME-country-us-asn-13977`: any Fidium IP in the United States.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-nh-asn-13977`: Fidium in one state.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-nh-city-manchester-asn-13977`: Fidium in Manchester.
- `USERNAME-country-us-state-nh-city-manchester-asn-13977-session-fidium1-ttl-15`: the same Manchester IP kept for up to 15 minutes.
- `USERNAME-country-us-asn-22647`: small Florida network.

Connect to `gw.broadbandproxies.com` on port 7777 (HTTP and HTTPS) or 7778 (SOCKS5). Each extra filter shrinks the set of matching home IPs: if a request finds none, drop the ZIP or city first and keep `asn-13977`.

## Fidium residential proxy pricing

ASN targeting costs nothing extra: Fidium traffic is billed at the same rate per GB as any other US network. See [all plans](https://broadbandproxies.com/pricing/).

| Plan | Quantity | Price | Price per unit |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Test | 1 GB | $2.63 | $2.63/GB |
| Team | 10 GB | $5.94 | $0.59/GB |
| Business | 100 GB | $50 | $0.50/GB |
| Terabyte | 1 TB | $500 | $0.50/GB |

In every plan: Protocols: HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5 · Targeting: ASN (ISP), state, city and ZIP in the US; country elsewhere; city availability varies · Sessions: Rotating or sticky (up to 30 minutes) · Authentication: Username and password, or an IP allowlist (up to 10 IPs) · Traffic expiry: Never expires

Prices in US dollars, paid in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC. Fund your balance (at least $25, or the price of the plan you want), then buy from it; Unused balance stays on your account and never expires. When a purchase costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request to support within 30 days of the payment, in USDT or USDC, as long as it has not been spent. The rest of the balance is not paid back, except where the law requires it. No identity documents are asked for.
