    To start using ProtoWeb, all you need is a computer with an Internet connection and a web browser that supports HTTP and FTP proxies (almost all web browsers do!). You can use a direct connection to the Internet. All you need to do is add the Proxy Server addresses in your Web browser setting.

    By using any of the ProtoWeb services, you agree to the terms outlined in the User Agreement.

    Dial-up Experience #

    If you want to simulate the page load times from back in the day (or perhaps are slightly deranged) you may want to choose a proxy server which simulates a 56k modem. If you would like the full Windows Dial-up experience, including dialing phone numbers, you may want to build the Raspberry Pi Virtual Modem. See Raspberry Pi -based Virtual Modem for more information.
