Proxy Chamber

If we are talking about disabling Telegram for Android, you need to go to "Data and Memory" and under "Proxy" find "Proxy settings". Here, under "Connections", you should disable the use of a proxy server. If we are talking about disabling Telegram for iOS, then in the "Data and memory" item, you should select "Proxy", then go to the "Use proxy" column, and then move the slider to the "Off" position.

The most convenient way is to use online proxy checkers, i.e. services that test all connection capabilities, including supported protocols. For example, Hidemy.name or Securitylab. As for applications, you can recommend SocksChain or Open Proxy Checker.

Using the "Start" button, go to the search engine and type regedit into it. Once the registry editor opens, go to the address you specified: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft, and then click on the Microsoft folder. On the "New" submenu, select the "Key" option, name it Internet Explorer and click on enter. Now right-click on the Control Panel key you have created and select the DWORD (32-bit) Value option on the "New" submenu. Give the key a name Proxy, and then click enter. In the created DWORD parameter, put 1 instead of 0, click on "OK" and reboot the computer.

It is not possible to set up a proxy connection in the program itself. That is, you should configure it either through the regular settings of Windows, or by using third-party utilities to forward traffic (e.g., through ProxyCap).

It's a router that redirects all traffic through a VPN server. Many router models support this function, you only need to specify the data for connecting to a particular VPN (that is, enter the parameters that will provide a VPN service). And some manufacturers provide such routers, in which all settings are already prescribed (the developers themselves provide a VPN-service or are representatives of such).
