Honestly, proxies are outdated unless you’ve got a specific use case.
But if you *need* one:
- Windows: Settings > Network > Proxy > Manual setup.
- Android: Wi-Fi > Advanced > Proxy > Manual.
- iOS: You’ll need a config profile (pain in the neck).
Try a free proxy tester like proxy-checker.org to verify it’s working.

Here’s the dumbed-down version:
Browser proxy? Easy. System-wide? Less easy.
For Chrome: Install "Proxy Helper" extension, paste your proxy, done.
For Windows system-wide: Win + I > Network > Proxy > Manual.
Phones: Wi-Fi settings > Advanced > Proxy.
If it fails, double-check the IP/port or try a different proxy.
