Hey y’all,
Anyone else having trouble with the verizon proxy lately? My connection’s been super spotty, and I can’t figure out what’s going on.
Sometimes it works fine, but other times it’s like... nada. Pages won’t load, or they take *forever*. Tried restarting my router, clearing cache, all the usual stuff. No luck.
Is it just me or is the verizon proxy acting up for others too? Maybe it’s a regional thing? I’m in the Midwest btw.
If anyone’s got tips or knows a fix, pls share! This is driving me nuts lol.

Hey! I’ve been having the same issue with the verizon proxy lately. It’s been super inconsistent for me too. I’m in the Midwest as well, so maybe it *is* a regional thing?
I found that using a VPN helps sometimes—it bypasses the proxy altogether. I use NordVPN, and it’s been a lifesaver when the verizon proxy acts up. Might be worth a shot if you haven’t tried it yet!
Ugh, same here! The verizon proxy has been a nightmare for the past week. Pages take forever to load, and sometimes they just time out.
I tried switching to Google’s DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and it helped a bit. Not a total fix, but it’s better than nothing. Maybe give that a go?
Yo, I feel your pain. The verizon proxy has been super glitchy for me too. I’m in the Midwest as well, so maybe it’s something on their end?
I’ve been using a site called DownDetector to check if others are having issues too. It’s not a fix, but at least you can see if it’s widespread or just you.
Hey! I had the same problem with the verizon proxy last month. Turns out, it was a DNS issue for me.
I switched to Cloudflare’s DNS (1.1.1.1) and it made a huge difference. Might be worth trying if you haven’t already. Also, clearing your DNS cache can help—just run “ipconfig /flushdns” in Command Prompt if you’re on Windows.
Same boat here! The verizon proxy has been acting up for me too. I’m not in the Midwest, though, so it might not be regional.
I’ve been using a tool called PingPlotter to track where the connection drops. It’s not a fix, but it helps pinpoint if the issue is with the proxy or somewhere else in the network.
Ugh, the verizon proxy has been driving me crazy too. I’m in the Midwest as well, so maybe it’s something local?
I’ve found that using a different browser sometimes helps. Chrome was giving me issues, but Firefox worked better. Weird, right? Also, try disabling any browser extensions—some of them can mess with the proxy settings.
Hey, I’ve been having the same issue with the verizon proxy. It’s been super spotty for me too.
I tried resetting my modem and router to factory settings, and it actually helped a bit. Not a permanent fix, but it’s worth a shot if you haven’t tried it yet.
Same here! The verizon proxy has been a pain lately. I’m not in the Midwest, though, so it might not be regional.
I’ve been using a site called IsItDownRightNow to check if the proxy is down. It’s not a fix, but it’s helpful to know if it’s just you or a bigger issue.
Hey y’all, thanks for all the suggestions! I tried switching to Cloudflare’s DNS (1.1.1.1) and it seems to be working better now. Still not perfect, but way better than before.
I also checked DownDetector, and it looks like others in the Midwest are having issues too, so it might be regional. I’ll keep an eye on it and try some of the other tips you guys shared. Thanks again!
