HTTP Proxy Settings For Netscape
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.

Email support is provided 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.

Setting Up Netscape 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 Netscape. 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

Step #3

Start up Netscape
Configure Netscape to use the proxy server by opening your browser.
Click on Edit and select "Preferences" as shown below.

Step #4

1. Double click on Advanced and then select Proxies.
2. Click the radio button for Manual proxy configuration.
3. Type in the proxy ip address and port that you wrote down.
from the http list in step # 2.




Step #5

Click the button under the HTTP Proxy setting [Use these settings for SSL, FTP and Gopher]



Now you are done. Click on the OK button

Start a new Netscape session or refresh the page and you should see a login prompt as shown below..



Type in the user name and password that you selected when you signed up for the proxy service.
If you want Netscape to remember your login be sure to check the box.

NOTE: Netscape will only remember the login for each proxy that you use. If you change the proxy server, you will need to enter your user name and password again and save it. Each proxy ip address and port are saved separately.

Now browse to one of the web sites below to check your ip address.
