Wifi Proxy Settings


Guest sebsal

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to access the WiFi in my office. I can connect to the router ok, the problem is I need to enter proxy settings to connect to the web or have live updates to weather/facebook etc.

I cannot find anywhere to enter proxy settings on this phone

Any idea if you can, or if there's an app that allows me to do this?

Thanks

Unfortunately, WiFi proxy isn't currently supported by Android. There were some application attempts to solve this but none were successful.

Oh dear. Hopefully this will be fixed. Will need to be if they're serious about Android as a business phone

I have decided to write an artical about this (http://slashdot.org/~mistahd33/submissions) and send it to a good portion of leading tech publications to see if a little publicity will budge google on the topic. I encourage others to either do the same, or comment on my artical in support of it. Also I encourage people to check out the issue logged with google here: (http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/de...273#makechanges) and click on the star at the topic of the artical to show google that you need this issue fixed.

I think you'll find that even your iPod Touch will not work through a proxy that needs authentication - Apple doesn't support this yet.
