Users can use their web browser to connect to the Single Connect HTTP Proxy. All web browsers support the HTTP Proxy functionality. However, Single Connect recommends the Mozilla Firefox web browser since its proxy configurations can be done without affecting the computer’s proxy settings. Other web browsers use the operating system’s proxy settings, and to use them, the operating system proxy settings should be configured for an HTTP Proxy.

# Mozilla Firefox

The Mozilla Firefox web browser can be configured with the following steps:

1. Open **Settings **> **Network Settings**.
2. In** Proxy Settings**, select** Manual Proxy Configuration**.
3. In the HTTP Proxy field, enter Single Connect’s IP address or URL
4. In the Port field, enter Single Connect’s port.
5. Check the **Use this proxy server for all protocols** checkbox.
6. Open the allowed http/s pages on the web browser.

# Other Web Browsers

In addition to Firefox, other web browsers can be used for HTTP Proxies. To use other browsers, the Microsoft Windows proxy settings need to be changed. 

To configure other web browsers for HTTP Proxy:

1. Open **Microsoft Windows Settings**.
2. Search for proxy and click the **Change Proxy Settings** result.
3. Scroll down to find the **Manual proxy setup**.
4. Turn the **Use a proxy server** toggle to **On**.
5. Enter the Single Connect IP or hostname in the Address text field, and **7080** in the **Port** field, and then **Save**.
6. Open the allowed http/s pages on the preferred web browser.
