If your company network restricts direct internet access, you may need to configure a network proxy for Qoder to function properly.

Why a proxy is needed

Many corporate networks use an HTTP proxy server to inspect outbound traffic before it reaches the Internet. This helps enforce security policies by detecting suspicious activity and blocking unauthorized access. In such environments, Qoder must be configured to route requests through the proxy.

How to configure a network proxy

  1. Go to Preferences > Qoder Settings.
Under Advanced, you’ll find Proxy Settings.
  1. Choose one of the following proxy modes:
Image(1) Pn
  • Use system global configuration (default)
    Qoder automatically uses the proxy settings configured in your operating system.
Image(2) Pn
  • Set up a network proxy manually
    Enter the proxy address and port. Qoder supports the following proxy types:
    • HTTP
    • HTTPS
    • SOCKS5
Note: Be sure to provide the complete address, including the protocol and port. Example: https://127.0.0.xxx:8080
  • No network proxy
    Select this option if no proxy is needed. If you choose manual configuration but leave the field blank, no proxy will be used.
Important: Ensure the proxy URL is complete and correctly formatted. An incomplete or incorrect configuration may prevent Qoder from accessing online services.
