Proxy Setting

Since the introduction of the new network Staff members no longer require proxy settings for any software to connect to external web sites while connected the UNE network.

ITD is trialing (for the first half of 2011) removing the requirement to configure software on the UNE network with proxy settings to connect to external sites for Students.

If you are a returning student or a staff member with proxy settings still in place, please follow the instructions below to remove those settings.
