German Residential Proxies

There are two options: setting up through the software of the TV itself. To do this, you will need to install a third-party application to redirect traffic. The second option is to organize a connection through a proxy on the router, through which the TV gets access to the Internet. Naturally, both of these options are relevant for modern TVs with Smart TV support.

A DNS server is a remote computer that receives a domain request from a user device. And it converts it into an IP address. Sometimes it is through the DNS-server that ISPs block sites. And DNS-proxy, respectively, allows you to bypass these restrictions completely.

A proxy is a server that acts as an intermediary between a client and the internet. It helps to improve the performance, security, and anonymity of the client's internet connection. A proxy can perform various tasks, such as:

1. Caching: A proxy can store frequently accessed web pages or resources in its cache, which allows the client to retrieve them more quickly.

2. Anonymity: A proxy can hide the client's IP address and location, making it difficult for websites to track the client's activity.

3. Security: A proxy can filter and block malicious content, such as malware or phishing websites, to protect the client's device from potential threats.

4. Access control: A proxy can restrict access to certain websites or content based on the client's permissions or organizational policies.

5. Load balancing: A proxy can distribute client requests across multiple servers to ensure that no single server becomes overloaded and to improve the overall performance of the network.

To enable a proxy on your computer, you'll need to configure the proxy settings for your operating system and web browser. Here's a general guide for Windows and macOS, along with instructions for popular web browsers:

For Windows:

1. Press Win + I to open the Settings app.
2. Click on "Network & Internet."
3. On the left sidebar, click on "Proxy."
4. Select "Manual proxy setup" and enter the proxy server's IP address and port number. If your proxy requires a username and password, enter those as well.
5. Click "Save" or "Apply" to enable the proxy.

For macOS:

1. Open "System Preferences."
2. Click on "Network."
3. Select the network connection you want to configure (e.g., Wi-Fi or Ethernet).
4. Click on the "Proxy" tab.
5. Choose "Automatic Proxy Configuration," "Manual Proxy Configuration," or "No Proxy" based on your needs.
6. If you choose "Manual Proxy Configuration," enter the proxy server's IP address and port number. If your proxy requires a username and password, enter those as well.

Click "OK" or "Apply" to enable the proxy.

Google Chrome doesn't have a built-in function to work with a proxy server, although there is such an item in the settings. But when you click on it, you are automatically "redirected" to the standard proxy settings in Windows (or any other operating system).
