Judah Johnson Proxy

You need to open the settings menu, go to "Data and disk", and then - "Proxy settings". There you can enter the address, port number of the intermediate server, as well as username and password for authorization (if necessary).

You can check it with the ping command from the command line in Windows. It is enough to enter it, with a space - the data of the proxy server (including the number of the port used) and press Enter. The reply message will tell you whether or not you have received a reply from the remote server. If not, the proxy is unavailable, respectively.

In WCF (Windows Communication Foundation), UDP communication is not supported directly as it is a point-to-point communication protocol. However, you can create a custom UDP duplex binding and use callbacks to send and receive data. Here's an example of how to do this:

1. Create a new WCF project or add a new service to an existing project.

2. Define the service contract for the UDP communication. For example:

[ServiceContract]
public interface IUdpService
{
    [OperationContract]
    void SendData(string data);

    [OperationContract]
    string ReceiveData();
}

3. Implement the service contract in a class:

public class UdpService : IUdpService
{
    private const int Port = 12345;
    private readonly UdpClient _udpClient = new UdpClient(Port);

    public void SendData(string data)
    {
        var bytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(data);
        _udpClient.Send(bytes, bytes.Length);
    }

    public string ReceiveData()
    {
        var bytes = _udpClient.Receive(ref EndPoint);
        var data = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(bytes);
        return data;
    }
}

4. Create a custom UDP duplex binding. Add the following code to a new class:

public class UdpDuplexBinding : Binding, IDisposable
{
    private UdpClient _udpClient;

    public UdpDuplexBinding()
    {
        _udpClient = new UdpClient();
    }

    public override void Close()
    {
        _udpClient?.Close();
    }

    public override void Dispose()
    {
        Close();
        GC.SuppressFinalize(this);
    }

    // Implement other required binding members
}

5. Implement a custom UdpDuplexSessionChannel for the UDP duplex binding. Add the following code to a new class:

public class UdpDuplexSessionChannel : DuplexSessionChannel
{
    private readonly UdpClient _udpClient;

    public UdpDuplexSessionChannel(UdpClient udpClient)
    {
        _udpClient = udpClient;
    }

    protected override void OnOpen(TimeSpan timeout)
    {
        base.OnOpen(timeout);
        _udpClient.EnableBroadcast = true;
    }

    protected override void OnClose()
    {
        _udpClient.Close();
        base.OnClose();
    }

    // Implement other required session channel members
}

6. Create a custom UdpDuplexSession for the UDP duplex binding. Add the following code to a new class:

public class UdpDuplex

Not all routers support proxies, this nuance should be clarified with the manufacturer. But many of the routers from Asus, TP-Link, Xiaomi work well with this type of connection. All this is configured through the web interface. By the way, for some routers, custom Padavan firmware is also available. The proxy works best there, especially in the presence of the OpenVPN plugin.

HTTP proxies are used for surfing the Internet and working with social networks. However, when using this type of proxy, the user's IP address remains unprotected. At the same time, the connection speed remains high.
SOCKS proxy are designed to use programs and visit sites anonymously. Also this type of proxy allows bypassing the resources with proxy-server protection.
To sum up: SOCKS proxies are a more advanced development compared to HTTP. However, to use SOCKS, you must know how to configure your browser and use special utilities.
