What is Tun2Socks?

Tun2Socks is a utility that redirects network traffic through a SOCKS proxy, enabling applications without native proxy support to connect securely. With Toolip, Tun2Socks allows you to manage all your system traffic via a reliable proxy, ensuring privacy, security, and access to geo-specific content.
Targeting search engines like Google, Bing, or Yandex requires a specialized proxy to ensure stable access and avoid blocks. Toolip’s Search Engine ISP Proxies are designed specifically for this, providing reliable performance where standard proxies may fail. If your proxy test isn’t working on search engines, switching to Search Engine ISP Proxies can resolve the issue.
