I have Android 2.3.6.
I am able to connect to wireless connection. To access internet in this network, I need to provide a proxy (IP address with port) with username and password. In the advanced options, I am able to find proxy_ip_add and proxy_port, but not username and password. Because of this, I am not able to access internet.
How can I set the username and password in the proxy to access internet?
Android only supports proxies with credentials in Android 4.0+.
In android 2.3 or below I recommend you use the proxydroid app to use the proxy. This app supports authenticated proxies but needs root access.
The reason you have a proxy setting could be due to additions by your device manufacturer.
