DHCP Proxy

A proxy server spoofs the IP address, port, and hardware information. It can also act as a secure gateway for data transmission in an already encrypted form (for example, this is how a proxy with the SOCKS5 protocol works).

And it depends on what purpose the proxy is used for. But you should definitely give preference to paid proxies. They are more reliable, always available, and with that comes a guarantee of privacy. Unfortunately, personal data is often stolen from free proxies.

To use Selenium in an Android Studio project, you can follow these steps

1. Create a New Android Studio Project

Open Android Studio and create a new Android project or open an existing project where you want to use Selenium.

2. Add Dependencies

Open your app's build.gradle file.

Add the Selenium dependency to the dependencies section. You can find the latest version on the Maven Repository.

dependencies {
    // Other dependencies...

    implementation 'org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-java:3.141.59'  // Use the latest version
}

Click "Sync Now" in the bar that appears at the top of Android Studio to sync the project and download the Selenium library.

3. Use Selenium in Your Code

You can now use Selenium in your Java code. For example, you can create a WebDriver instance and interact with a web page.

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class MainActivity {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/path/to/chromedriver");

        // Create a ChromeDriver instance
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

        // Example: Open Google and print the title
        driver.get("https://www.google.com");
        System.out.println("Title: " + driver.getTitle());

        // Close the browser window
        driver.quit();
    }
}

Make sure to replace "/path/to/chromedriver" with the actual path to the ChromeDriver executable. You can download ChromeDriver from the official site.

4. Configure WebDriver

Depending on the WebDriver you are using (e.g., ChromeDriver, GeckoDriver for Firefox), you may need to configure the path to the WebDriver executable. Set the system property before creating the WebDriver instance.

5. Handling WebDriver in Android

Note that running Selenium directly on Android devices is not straightforward due to differences in the architecture and limitations. If you need to automate interactions with Android apps, you might want to look into tools like Appium, which is designed specifically for mobile app automation.

Remember that Selenium is primarily designed for web automation, and using it for Android app automation may not be the best choice. For native Android app automation, consider tools like Appium or Espresso. If you are working with web views within Android apps, you can still use Selenium for those parts.

It means that now all the traffic is sent to a VPN server (which can be an ordinary proxy). This is a kind of warning that the remote server can now collect data. Therefore, you should use only well-tested VPN services.

All you need to know when using a web proxy is the address of the web site of the proxy server. A web proxy is like a browser built into a web page. Usually, it always has a bar for entering the URL of the web site you want to open. After entering the URL of the web proxy server address into the address bar of the browser, enter the address of the desired web site into the proxy URL and press "Enter".
