## Getting Started

Before proceeding, ensure you have:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    Ensure you're connected to a Wi-Fi network and open **Settings**.

### Verify the Connection

### Disable the Proxy

To disable the proxy, just tap **Off** in the **Configure Proxy** section and then tap **Save** again.

## Common Issues

### Blocklist

⚠️ Please be aware that we [**restrict access to some websites**](https://decodo.com/faq/general/do-you-have-any-blocked-sites).

### Direct IP

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Direct IP Parameter Support" icon="gear">
    If you buy an IP list, you can specify which IPs to connect to using the **direct** `ip` parameter in the proxy username: `user-username-ip-x.x.x.x`

    * Supported products: **DC Pay/IP**, **Dedicated DC**, **ISP Pay/IP**, **Dedicated ISP** plans.
    * Products that offer access to the full proxy pool, such as residential proxies, do not support this parameter.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="IP:PORT Format" icon="gear">
    * Decodo proxies don't support an `IP:PORT` format by default.
    * You must use the **endpoint** rotator format (e.g., `us.decodo.com:10101`).
    * If necessary, try the workaround [**here**](https://help.decodo.com/docs/how-to-get-ip-port-format#/), but it only works temporarily before requiring another setup update.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>
