WeChat suddenly can not connect to the Internet? Don't worry, it may be the network proxy is doing something
Recently, a lot of partners complained to Lao Zhang, saying that WeChat is obviously connected to WiFi but can not brush the message. This situation is eighty percent of the network proxy settings out of the problem, especially the company network or public places will often appear. Today we will nag how to use proxy IP to solve this problem.
Why does WeChat use proxies?
To give you a chestnut, your home WiFi is like a courier locker, and the proxy IP is the courier boy. When the courier cabinet is stuck, change a reliable brother can solve the problem. In particular, some units of the network will restrict specific applications, this time through the proxy IP to change a "channel", immediately can let WeChat live.
Three situations in which a proxy must be used:
- Company network blocks social software
- Public WiFi drops frequently
- Restricted off-site login
Hands-On Proxy Configuration
Here's an example for an Android phone (Apple setup is easier, the steps are similar):
1. Open WeChat → Me → Settings
2. Tap "General" → select "Web Proxy".
3. Switch to "Manual Configuration". 4.
4. Enter the proxy server address (ask ipipgo customer service for it). 5.
5. Enter the corresponding number for the port number.
6. Save and restart WeChat
If you don't know how to set it up manually, I highly recommend using the ipipgo client. Their app has aOne-click fixThe function automatically detects the optimal line. Last time I helped Auntie Wang next door set it up, it took three seconds.

Not all agents can handle WeChat, so here's a comparison table for you:
