Spa Proxy

A reverse proxy is mainly used by administrators and is responsible for balancing workload and high availability. The reverse proxy redirects received requests to one of its web servers. From the outside it is completely invisible and looks as if all required resources are concentrated directly in the proxy.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to use a proxy directly on an Xbox console. Xbox consoles do not have built-in proxy settings, and they rely on the network settings provided by your home router or modem.

If you need to use a proxy for gaming or other purposes, you should configure the proxy settings on your home router or modem. This will allow all devices connected to your network, including your Xbox console, to use the proxy.

In the Windows Settings menu, go to "Network and Internet". At the very bottom, on the left side, find the item "Proxy server" and uncheck it so that it is no longer used. It is also desirable to uncheck the item "Automatic detection of parameters" in the section "Automatic configuration". If this is not done, there is a chance that the proxy will continue to be used. Reboot your laptop.

Proxy servers are needed for Telegram, so that they can substitute their IP address instead of the real one. This procedure makes it possible to avoid blocking and bypass the ban on the messenger in our country. There are three types of protocols that can be set up for Telegram: Socks5, HTTP and MTPROTO. As for the last protocol, its own applications are developed for it.

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.
