No Internet Through Proxy Server
Posted: Wed Mar 18, 2015 6:36 am
Howdy all,
Firstly, here are my specs:
Digiland DL701Q Tablet
Android 4.4.2 - KitKat
AdblockPlus 1.2.1
Comcast (Cable) Internet
Here's the situation:
I bought this $50 tablet for my 4 year old daughter to play games and learn with, but one thing that pissed me off to no end was the fact that she couldn't do anything without running into ads. Some ads can't be dismissed by paying money either. So, I turned to Adblock Plus. It blocks ads just fine. The issue I am having, is that I can't connect to the internet while Adblock is running. I'm 30 years old and have have been using computers since I was 7 years old. I'm a veteran PC user and average hacker.
What am I doing wrong here? Do I need to go to some other, more extreme route? Is there another port I should try or do I have something configured incorrectly?
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. It frustrates me when she goes from playing a game to trying to load YouTube, and I have to disable the Proxy Server.
Thanks
