On the small SquidMan user interface, hit the Start Squid button. Again, take note of the MacBook IP address, you’re still going to need it.ĥ. With this above, your need to enter something like 192.168.43.0/24 in your Squid settings. It didn’t work for me though, I had to find out what my IP range was by going to Network Preferences in macOS settings. Squid gives you a hint here that adding 192.168.1.0/24 will make it work for your whole IP range. Now go to the “Clients” tab and add your IP range.

How to configure SquidMan to enable Mac as a proxy serverġ. With this method, you can tunnel every other gadget too on the same local network through your Mac. In the simplest terms, every connection from the PS4 passes through your computer (with VPN running), bypassing IP restrictions. You may still run the VPN on your Mac, then make every connection from your PS4 go through the VPN on your Mac by setting it up as a proxy server. You certainly can’t use your VPN directly with your PS4, but there’s a way out. Even with a US PSN account, it may be difficult at times to access your account due to your blacklisted IP. In this article for instance, I explained how to use PlayStation Network in Nigeria. With most IP addresses of Nigerian service providers blacklisted online already, it’s becoming even harder accessing the internet without changing your IP address. It’s one of the many ways to hide your real identity online, bypass captchas and geo-restriction. Most of the time, I surf the internet using a VPN, both on mobile and PC. Now, SquidMan isn’t the real deal, it is only the graphical installer and manager for the Squid proxy cache on macOS.


For my specific need, I found out that the best alternative to CCProxy on macOS is SquidMan. This particular software program isn’t available for macOS, but there are alternatives. CCProxy was one of this things I missed on Windows when I finally fully switched to macOS. With Windows, you can easily make your computer to act as a proxy server using CCProxy.
