Tips about Proxy Configuration

For users from mainland China (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan), since domestic networks generally cannot directly access foreign IPs, you will need to configure a proxy with an overseas IP on DICloak. But before that, you will first need to set up an overseas network access through a VPS, an international private line, or other methods like VPN. Only then can you properly access foreign IPs on DICloak. If you have other questions, please feel free to contact us!
