How can I configure TweakMASTER using a proxy server on the Internet?

TweakMASTER Knowledge Base article KB0027

If you are using a proxy client/server setup, this is a special circumstance.

MTU Probe uses ICMP packets (just like any ping utility), and this does not work via proxy.

Proxy users will probably find that TweakMASTER will not do much to their computers, since all optimizations should be applied to the proxy itself.

Note that no matter what kind of speed boost you get, that you can still enjoy the benefits of DNS Acceleration, something that DOES work for everyone. You should also appreciate the automatic PC Clock Synchronization feature, as well as ISP Disconnect Prevention, Ping, Traceroute and WhoIs, and the Network Connections Viewer. Restoring your original settings as described above will only affect the MTU optimization settings and not these other features, which many people have reported are well worth the program cost by themselves. And of course with the PRO version, both DU Meter and LinkFox are immensely useful for anyone using the Internet.
