You can always find out if you are using a proxy by checking your IP address. If your IP address is different from before, then you have successfully set up a proxy on your iPhone. Just type “what’s my IP address” into a search engine, and you will see several websites that instantly read and display your IP address.
In Windows, you can quickly check your proxy by clicking Start, then Run, typing “cmd,” and clicking OK. At the command prompt, type “netsh winhttp show proxy,” and then press ENTER. Your proxy settings will appear shortly.
In Google Chrome, you can easily check your proxy server and firewall settings by following these steps:
- Open Google Chrome, then click on the Menu icon.
- Go to the Settings section.
- Scroll down and select Show advanced settings….
- On the Network tab, click Change proxy settings.
This will open the Windows Internet Options window. Go to the Connections LAN Settings to check the details.
