How Do I Connect to a Proxy Server Online? Step-by-Step Guide Needed! or Can Someone Explain How Do I

"How do I connect to a proxy server online? Need help setting it up!"

Hey guys, kinda new to this whole proxy thing and could use some guidance.

I’ve got a proxy address but no clue how to actually *use* it. Do I just plug it into my browser settings or is there more to it?

If anyone’s got a simple step-by-step guide on how do I connect to a proxy server online, that’d be awesome. Like, do I need extra software or can I just tweak my network settings?

Also, does it work the same for phones?

Thanks in advance! 🙏

(btw, if it matters, I’m on Windows but might need to set it up on my phone later.)
