Waveboxapp: How to set up Proxy Server?

Created on 22 Feb 2019  路  9Comments  路  Source: wavebox/waveboxapp

As we all know, Gmail cannot be logged in in China, so proxy servers need to be set up.

But I didn't find any settings for proxy servers.

Network settings like Socks5 and HTTPS.

Maybe I didn't see it?

Thanks.

Hi, it should pick the proxy settings up from your operating system and use those automatically. Which OS and version are you using?

Ubuntu 18.04 64 bit

Setting up a proxy server for the entire system is a hassle

Because if you modify the proxy server of the entire system, other software will also be affected, such as the browser.

I just want to make the wavebox use a proxy server.

I remember that telegram has this feature, like this:

Would ProxyChains work?

@Xeonacid It should be working properly.
But that needs to be started from the terminal, I think it is not very convenient.
I remember that wavebox can be started with parameters.
The parameter format is the same as chrome.
Proxy server can also be set with parameters.
But this is still not very convenient.

I agree the command line isn't a great way to do it. I'll have a look to see if we can add something into the next beta :)

Hi, we鈥檝e just released this to the beta channel of Wavebox in version 4.7.12. You can find the proxy settings under Settings > Network

Alternatively, if you find yourself locked out of the app on-launch you can change the proxy settings from the connection screen too.

If you want to give it a try there are some instructions on how to use the beta channel here. Thanks

It works well.
Thanks very much.
I wish you a happy life.

Thanks, for implementation, does it allow to set per-service proxy, or only one for all services?

@MurzNN only for all services at the moment
