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.
If your proxy gives you a 504 error, it means the server failed to complete the request within the time period you specified. Refreshing the page may help. Another option is to switch to another browser. You can also use the incognito mode, pre-clearing the browser cache. Pay attention to plug-ins that can also cause this error.
Go to "Control Panel" and in "Small icons" mode, find the item "Browser properties", aka "Internet Options". In the "Connection" tab, click on "Network Settings", and then leave the item "Automatic detection of parameters" enabled in the window that opens, and disable everything else.
To enable proxies in your MacBook, you need to go to "System Preferences" (from the "Apple" menu), then open "Network", then - specify the type of connection you are using. Then select "Advanced Settings" (can be named as "Advanced"), then click on "Proxy". And then - either set the parameters manually, or specify a configuration file.
You need to go to "Settings", click on "WiFi", select the current network to which the smartphone is connected, tap on "Proxy settings". And then - deactivate the item.
