Proxy Settings For FireFox
Proxy
Server addresses and ports used for our HTTP proxies, can
be found in our members
login area. The
port to use for each server will be listed on the same line
as the server ip address. If you experience any problems while
using these instructions, check your configuration and be
sure that you are using the correct user name and password.
Also be sure that there is not a space before or after the
ip address, user name or password. If there are left over
spaces from a copy and paste, the server will not work. If
you have checked everything, try another proxy server from
a different area of our list. Rather then trying another proxy
server or machine, first try another network. IP addresses
starting with 38.96.x are from one upstream provider and ip
addresses starting with 66.38.x are from another. It is not
likely that both routes would be down at the same time. Though
we rarely experience problems, here is a partial map of upstream
providers that will help you in choosing different ip's if
you are experiencing problems.
Upstream #1 38.96.x (cogent usa)
Upstream #2 66.38.x (bell canada)
Upstream #3 65.91.x (broadwing usa)
Upstream #4 64.46.x
(bigpipe canada)
You do not need to be a rocket scientist to use a proxy. If
you have tried a couple different networks and are still having
problems, contact our technical support department. There
may be something wrong with your account.

support is provided 24 hours a day and 7 days a

Setting
Up FireFox For The Proxy
Step
#1
First you will need a proxy server account
There are two different types of proxy accounts that work
with these configurations in FireFox. You can choose from
USA
only proxy servers or USA
+ Off shore access. At this time, the USA option gives
you access to over 300 broadband proxy servers and the off
shore gives you access to over 600 total proxies. (since we
are growing, please click on the links above to view current
server numbers)
STOP
HERE BEFORE YOU GET STARTED
There
is no need to continue if you download Proxy Firewall. Proxy
Firewall is an automatic proxy selector that will simply and
easily manage proxy connections for you. Proxy Firewall does
all of the work. There will be no need for you to configure
your Internet programs to use a proxy, just answer Proxy Firewall's
questions when asked.

Step
#2
Select which proxy you would like to use
Before we get started you will need to select which proxy
server from our list that you would like to use. All that
you will need to start is to go to the members
area and bring up the HTTP proxy list. Each proxy server
has an IP address and HTTP port listed next to it. There are
different types of names to choose from, such as: DNS Spoofed
(example: billy.microsoft.com), Vanity (example: bet.u.cant.find.me.cause.im.on.my.
proxymachine.com) and normal looking ISP (example: anderson.city.park.united-wireless.net)
It does not matter which you choose, it is the users personal
preference on how they want to show up on the net.
Write down the IP and port for the proxy that you would like
to start with.
Example: IP: 38.96.193.162 Port: 38130

and port are saved separately.
