Post: Proxy questions
04-21-2016, 02:25 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So i have been looking into some anti dos protection and i came across proxy servers. i found one in my local region and am now on that proxy, does this mean my ip will be hidden from anyone trying to boot me offline or is it not that simple? slighty confused.

Thanks Smile

I found these: You must login or register to view this content. and i am currently using the top one. So your saying this doesn't work? I really don't want to have to pay if possible.

Ps. going away today until sunday will see replies then


If you can connect to the internet and still go online then it maybe working Smile

A way you could test is try it on your ps3, and then go on web browser and go to "https://www.whatsmyip.org/" and see what IP address it shows,
Do the same to a PC or Another device that is not connected to proxy and if its different then it does indeed work

Ok so i have done more research, it turns out i can sign in, that is, until i start a game :/ what i completely missed is the process of hosting the proxy from my pc, perhaps this is why it doesnt work?

God dammit, yet another confusion, sorry guys. So, tell me if i have it right this time. Running a proxy server from your pc is pointless unless your pc is on a VPN, because otherwise it will give your pc's IP adress, still giving them access to your router? It took me a long time to get to this point, still dont know if i have it right. Sorry lads.
