Laptop proxy connection

DmanDmythDledge · 2009-09-28 16:40:24

Brought my laptop with me to DCU and got it set up on the proxy to use the internet out there. Now back at home and don't know how to change it back so I can connect to the internet at home with my laptop. Anyone know what I should do?

If you have firefox, Click on tools, then on options. Click the advanced tab then the network tab. Click on settings and select no proxy.

For Internet explorer, click tools and then internet options. select the connections tab and click lan settings. deselect the box that says "use a proxy server..."

If you select "Auto detect proxy settings" it should work both at home and in DCU, though maybe not in the school of computer.
