Proxy software

[Dolby]

Are there any proxy servers that enable all protocols at all?

I've tried installing CCProxy on my main machine, and setting the two smaller maxchines to this IP address. It works for HTTP and some other things, but certain procols are excluded and won't pick up (ie MIRC, RSS feeds) etc

Anything that shares the connection fully?

In CCProxy Go to options, there you can enable/add more protocols/ports.

Everything is added & ticked

My media streamer still doesn't pick up an internet connection

Make sure that the port is not blocked by your Firewall, if you using the http port in ccproxy it will be 808, maybe temporarily disable the Firewall just to test if it works

Why you using proxy software, why not routing software?

It's a setup issue - and no, it isn't as simple as using ICS wizards.

I have recently come across a program called FreeProxy, it seems a very full featured program, and it's for free. Do a search on it, should turn up a link rather quickly.

Sometimes using a proxy is a better option than just using NAT on the router, it gives you more control, and can provide detailed usage logs too.
