How to set up a proxy in Dolphin{anty}

Add an HTTP(S) or SOCKS5 proxy to a Dolphin{anty} profile and check the connection.

What you need

A proxy in the format HOST:PORT:LOGIN:PASSWORD. Dolphin{anty} also accepts HOST:PORT and LOGIN:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT. Paste it as a single line into the new proxy field and the other fields fill in automatically.

You can set the type with a prefix: http://, socks5:// or socks4://. For SOCKS5, use the separate SOCKS5 port if one is listed with your proxy.

Setup

  1. Create a profile or open an existing one on the Browser Profiles screen (in the list, click the pencil in the Proxy column).
  2. Choose New proxy (the other options are No proxy and a previously saved proxy).
  3. Paste the string, for example HOST:PORT:LOGIN:PASSWORD or socks5://HOST:PORT:LOGIN:PASSWORD.
  4. Save the profile.
  5. To add the proxy to the shared list in advance, open the Proxy screen and click Add Proxy; the steps after that are the same.

Check

  1. In the proxy list, click the arrows next to the entry: Dolphin{anty} checks the connection and detects the geolocation and time zone.
  2. Start the profile and open the IP check page on Hopmind: the address should match the proxy address.

Common problems

  1. A red exclamation mark when starting a profile, or red arrows in the list: the proxy is not responding. Check the login, password, port and expiry date.
  2. The problem may be on your network or in the built-in checker: test the proxy with a third-party checker in the IP:PORT:LOGIN:PASSWORD format, or from another network.
  3. If some sites open and others do not, contact your proxy provider: Dolphin{anty} does not affect how the proxy works.
