18. Double click “WWW Proxy service” from the left tab. Enter the name and description of service if you want to, and then Port number in the field “Service Port” (eg. 1111, 2121 etc, it is better if you don’t use system ports like 80, 21, 22 due to security). If you intend to setup two or more Proxy services, make sure the port number is unique to every service.
19. Select “Bindings” in the Configuration tab, uncheck the box “Bind to any IP address on any internal adapter” but leave the other box checked “Bind only to 127. 0. 0. 1 on MS TCP Loopback interface”.
20. Select “Gateways” in the Configuration tab, in the “Connection Scheme” listbox, choose “Use all specified connections in rotation”, and click “Add”.
21. In the new box “Gateways Policy”, click on the first connection name you will use once, expand the selection by clicking on the “+”, then expand “Gateways” and “Source IP address”, and make sure that “Any gateway” and “Any IP address” are checked already. Disable “Dial this connection if it is not connected”, and click Ok.
Note: If the connection you are selecting always has a static IP Address and/or gateway, you can change gateways and Source IP Address settings accordingly, though the method described in 3. 8 will still work.
22. The first connection you just selected will be displayed in the gateways section now, repeat step 3. 8 to add more connections to combine. Once finished, click “Apply” and then “Ok”. If a dialogue box appears stating “The original service has been changed by another user. Would you like to update the service with your changes?”, click Yes.
(step4)23. Using the new Proxy Service..
First connect all the connections you want to use (and added as gateways in step 3.
To use multiple connections at the same time, you will need to setup proxy configuration for all the applications that access internet. Use “127. 0. 0. 1″ as the IP Address and the Port number you used in step 3. 5 (eg 1111, 2121 etc). Here’s a quick guide to setup this in Flashget and Firefox:
24. Configuring proxy settings in Firefox.
+ Click on Tools > Options.
+ Select “Advanced” tab, then select Network tab.
+ In the “Connection” group, select “Settings”
+ Click “Manual Proxy configuration”
+ Enter “127. 0. 0. 1″ in “Http Proxy” field, and the port number you used in step 3. 5 in “Port” field. Click Ok.
25. Configuring proxy settings in Internet Download Manager.
+ Click on Downloads > Options.
+ Enter “127. 0. 0. 1″ in “Http Proxy” field, and the port number you used in step 18. in “Port” field. Click Ok.
+ If you want to browse while downloading a file, you can setup two Proxy services in Wingate (on DIFFERENT PORTS), and use one proxy for download Manager and the other for Web Browser. Just remember to use the specific ports.
+ If you don’t setup Proxy settings for the application you are using, the latest connected connection will be used, while all the other will stay idle.
+ When downloading files with a download manager, use at least 2-4 connections (or parts) per internet connection your proxy service is using.
+ If you want to apply these settings on a server of a Local area network, don’t uncheck “Bind to any IP address on any internal adapter” in step 19.
6. Problems ‘n’ Solutions..
+ A problem I encountered frequently, was that when downloading a file through Flashget one of the two connections becomes Idle. To solve this, just pause the download, and then resume again. This also gets fixed if one download is completed, and the next started.
+ If even after setting up you can’t get to utilize all the connections, try these solutions:
1. Close Gatekeeper, stop Wingate Engine, close Wingate VPN monitor, end the “wingate. exe” process from Windows Task Manager. And then Run Wingate again.
3. Delete the proxy profiles or settings in your applications (Download manager, Web Browser etc), and then set it again.
4. If your computer restarted while Wingate was running, WWW Proxy Service settings sometimes get deleted. Set them again..
