How to configure a proxy on Android?

To browse the Internet, you must configure your connection so that it takes into account the proxy server. Not all Android phones have the ability to manage proxy servers so to check if your device supports this feature, you must first connect to the network:

  • Go to Settings > Wireless & networks.
  • Tap and hold on the Network name until a small menu appears.
  • Tap on Modify Network.
  • Tap on Show Advanced Options.
  • From there you can configure your proxy settings. Enter the hostname and proxy port. You can find the full list of these in your dashboard.
  • Then finally click Save.
