Ok, so I want to play Silkroad from behind a firewall and a proxy or whatever. So, I go to
http://www.your-freedom.net, get that, configure it properly. Then I get proxyCap (google it), configure it as well. I get internet explorer and xfire working, with no restrictions. I now have two problems. Firstly, I attempt to configure Silkroad like this:
New ProxyCap rule
Type: HTTPS
address: localhost
port: 8080
TCP checked
UDP unchecked
Specify Silkroad.exe for the program.
New ProxyCap rule
Type: SOCKS v5
address: localhost
port: 1080
TCP checked
UDP checked
Specify Silkroad.exe for the program.
This configuration works fine for xFire, but for Silkroad, after updating absolutely fine, I get some random symbol-ridden dialogue box, with one button. (sorry, no screenie).
(followed by the ?????? error, but I suspect thats the laptop i am using)
I know that you have to configure different games differently, so if anybody can tell me how, that'd be great.
The second problem I have is that Your-Freedom allows me 64k of bandwidth. Is that a little rubbish? I think so but I may be wrong. If anyone can give me some tips or a tutorial on how to increase the bandwidth / connect it to another server (i.e. one that I may buy), that would be of great help. I'll be at the boarding school I am at now for three years, and I'll be damned if my SRO character's gonna suffer because of it!
