surf the internet more free

[ffrr]

When I am @office, I could only surf the internet with the proxy settings of
my company.the proxy only lets port 80 available,and lots of website block by the proxy

So,I think maybe I could use my asus wl 500gp@home as a buffer or a proxy to let me connected form my company,then I could surf the internet more free

But I don't know how to do,can anyone give some hint

Sorrry for my poor english

solution 1:
install a webserver with php support, and maybe mysql
set up a php script on it to handle as proxy.
im not sure how its called, but some searching at sourceforge.net never harms. an example is www.atunnel.com for using this solution.

solution 2:
install openvpn on port 80 and make sure all traffic will be routered trough the vpn tunnel, this can be done with some simple windows settings.

Thanks wpte
the webproxy seem too difficult for me to set up,but I will try
I use SSH tunnel @ port:80,but failed I don't know why??
I find some information about Nylon proxy and Squid proxy
then I try to set up a Nylon sock proxy ,but failed either
Is there any example that I can follow :P

[wpte]

squid runs on the atunnel.com website (forgot the name)
it might need havy processing to actually browse it trough there
I dont have any experience with setting this up... so I'm afraid I can't help with this part. you could make an attempt to compile it tough: http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=14538
EDIT:
you can also do

ipkg install squid

then place the cachemgr.cgi file in your cgi-bin of your webserver (lighthttp is capable of doing this)


If you are able to install programs on your work pc, like openvpn
you could follow this how-to:
http://wlhdd.co.uk/wiki/OpenVPN
a few ports should be allowed to access, most likely: 1, 80, 81, 443
on these ports you could host your vpn server, or just make a virtal server from port 2 to 443 or something like that
after that's done, you can edit the protocol settings in windows for tcp/ip4 so it will send the information on the right networking device

if using ssh tunnel, privoxy can be your friend!
doesn't need php or anything, just ipkg it and check the config file. maybe you don't have to modify it at all, i guess i made some small customization.

I ipkg install privoxy,but I don't know how to setup the config file

[admin@WHITE root]$ privoxy
Fatal error: can't check configuration file '/tmp/local/root/config': No such file or directory

there is no example :< ,where I can find some information about setting up the config file

hi
sorry for the late answer
i always run it as:
privoxy --no-daemon /opt/privoxy/provixy.conf

of course I put the config file there previously
I experienced problems when running it as a daemon, so that's why the --no-daemon switch is there

Thanks for your reply
Could you show provixy.conf
I find \opt\share\doc\privoxy
there are some information
but no mention the provixy.conf

You should have a complete /opt/etc/privoxy dir come with the privoxy ipkg package. I will give you a conf file, but be warned that it's not enough, there's a whole dir with over 40 files. Install the ipkg properly and you will get a proper etc/privoxy config dir.
