Question:

  • How do I disable Internet Proxy on Android devices?

Background:

  • Trustwave recommends that mobile devices should not use a proxy server for WiFi network connections, unless the proxy is required on a trusted organizational network (such as a company or school network).
  • If Trustwave Mobile Security warns you about proxy settings, but you are connected to a trusted network, check with your IT helpdesk or network administrator to make sure the proxy is required. 

Procedure:

You must complete these actions for each WiFi network where Mobile Security warns you about proxy settings.

To disable use of proxy:

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap Network & Internet and then Wi-Fi.
  3. Touch and hold the Wi-Fi network name.
  4. Tap Modify network.
  5. Next to "Advanced options," tap the Down Arrow.
  6. Under "Proxy," tap the Down arrow.
  7. Tap  None.
  8. Tap Save.
