Network proxy

Use the client's network-proxy setting only when your connection requires a proxy. It is separate from the server's connection routes. The Web app does not expose this client setting.

1. Open Settings → Network Proxy on a supported installed client.
2. Enable the proxy and enter the address in a supported form: host:port, http://host:port, or https://host:port.
3. With a server active and a usable connection configured, select Test Connection.
4. Return to the library and test a song as well as browsing.

If testing is unavailable, first select a server and check its connection. Local loopback targets bypass the proxy; enabling it does not send every possible local request through that service.

If connectivity fails after enabling the proxy, disable it and test again to isolate the cause. A proxy address is not a replacement for a correct music-server address, and configuring one does not make an unavailable server work automatically.
