  2. The proxy server isn’t responding

    Hello All!

    From the last 2 days, I'm facing a peculiar problem of not getting connected to internet.

    Tried with IE, Edge, Chrome but none seems to work.

    This is the error with IE

    The proxy server isn’t responding

    • Check your proxy settings 127.0.0.1:8080.

      Go to Tools > Internet Options > Connections. If you are on a LAN, click “LAN settings”.
    • Make sure your firewall settings aren’t blocking your web access.
    • Ask your system administrator for help.
    This is the error with M. Edge:

    Can’t connect to the proxy server
    Try this

    • Make sure firewall settings aren’t blocking your web access
    • Ask your system administrator for help

    And with Chrome:

    Unable to connect to the proxy server
    ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED

    A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between your computer and other servers. Right now, your system is configured to use a proxy, but Google Chrome can't connect to it.

    If you use a proxy server...
    Check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. If you don't believe you should be using a proxy server: Go to the Chrome menu > Settings > +
    Show advanced settings > Change proxy settings... > LAN Settings and deselect "Use a proxy server for your LAN".

    What to do?

    Tried all the resources listed on the web.

    Can someone help me to fix this issue?

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards,

    Srinik

    Hi Srinik,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



    I understand your concern and will assist you to resolve this issue.


    • Are you using a proxy server to connect to Internet?

    • Have you made any recent software or hardware changes on the computer?


    Method 1: I suggest you to disable proxy settings. Follow these steps:

    Windows help and learning



    Method 2: I would also suggest you to go through the steps and check.



    a) Under "Tools" in the browser tool bar select "Internet Options".

    b) In the "Internet Options" Window that pops up, click the "Connections" tab at the top.

    c) Click "LAN Settings" near the bottom of the "Connections" section.

    d) If the "Proxy server" checkbox is marked with a check, click it to deselect/uncheck it.

    e) Click "Ok" to close the "Local Area Network (LAN) Settings" window.

    f) Click "Ok" to close the "Internet Options" Window.



    Now check if you are able to connect to Internet Explorer.
