2. Restart Your Device

After configuring the proxy, restart your device to ensure the settings are properly applied.

3. Switch Networks

Try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data.
Some networks — especially corporate or public ones — block proxy traffic for security reasons.

4. Verify Proxy Compatibility

Not all applications support proxies equally.
✅ Test your proxy with a browser like Google Chrome or Firefox to confirm it works as expected.
If it does, the issue might be app-specific.

5. Check Proxy Authentication

If your proxy requires credentials, double-check your username and password.
Incorrect authentication can prevent the proxy from connecting.
