- Click Menu > System settings.
- In Wireless & Networks, select Wi-Fi.
- Click WiredSSID and hold it down for two seconds.
- Click Modify Network.
- Check Show advanced options.
- In Proxy settings, select Manual.
- Enter the proxy settings provided by your network administrator.
- Click Save.
From command line (adb):
Connect your device to ADB (refer to Genymotion user guide for details), and use the following command:
adb shell settings put global http_proxy [proxy ip]:[proxy port]
To disable the proxy:
adb shell settings delete global http_proxy
