TunnelerX allows you to securely re-route HTTP traffic to a remote proxy server by running a single SSH tunnel from your menu bar.
Tunneling is particularly useful for individuals who encounter firewalls that restrict their internet access or monitor traffic too closely for comfort. This may include individuals living in countries with national firewalls or those in office environments. However, for this method of circumventing restrictions to be successful, you must have an SSH-accessible account on a remote server outside your network, and you need to be proficient in Unix to set up password-less login for that account.
You also need to ensure that the remote server is running a full proxy server that allows access from localhost or recent versions of SSH that support the -D flag for SOCKS5 proxy support. Additionally, you need to set up password-less login for your local machine to the remote machine.
Requirements for using TunnelerX include enough RAM to boot your computer and 1MB of disk space. With TunnelerX, you can enjoy safe and secure internet access while avoiding any restrictions imposed on your network.
