Help Creating Static IP using Tor browser through Whonix

Support
1

Hello. I am new to Whonix and the whole anonymity thing.

I am using the Whonix virtual-box to run a Tor browser. Is there a way I can set a static IP of my choosing so that when I navigate to a particular site it thinks I am coming form that same IP every time?

Thanks in advance for any help!

You can do it by “connecting to Tor before VPN/Proxy”. Not an easy setup but doable.

Hi JDawg

You can configure Tor to use a specific Exit Node but I would advise against this since it can severely degrade anonymity.

Tor documentation on this can be found here

https://torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en

Scroll down to documentation until you see this

ExitNodes node,node,…

If you were to configure your torrc it would look something like this:

ExitNode <your_exit_node_fingerpint>

Read this first to understand risks etc…

Then to configure User-> Tor-> VPN-> Internet
