Am I blind, stupid or just confused?

I have looked all over the place online and through the settings dialogs, and I don't see where you can set up a proxy for the N9.

I tried setting it with gconftool and gconftool-2, but it still wasn't using the proxy settings for the browser.

Basically I want to set up a script that will be launched by ProfileMatic when I connect to the WiFi at work, so that I can still log onto the facebook program. I don't really use facebook, but I use it for testing purposes.

Any clue on how to do this? Any help would be most appreciative.

go to internet settings, and set it there, for example choose/edit wifi network that you want and add proxies manually in there.

What he said!

Yeah, I was blind, for whatever reason I saw "advanced settings disconnect and my brain thought it was the same for some reason. Cursed lack of sleep!

try setting the username And it may ask for the pass. It try an encrypted method e.g tls.
biggest problem i have it that many apps don't want to work when the proxy is enabled!
