Configuring proxy

MDBG Chinese Reader 8 - License Manager

If your network uses a proxy server, then MDBG's License Manger will need to be manually configured to reach our licensing server. From the License Manager, click More button to open a manual configuration panel (shown above).

  • Host: name or IP address of your proxy server (e.g., proxy.loqu8.net)
  • Port: port number (e.g., 8080)

What's your proxy server setting? Open your web browser:
- Internet Explorer: Internet Options > LAN Settings.
B. From your MDBG License Key email, highlight and copy (Ctrl+C) the license key.
C. In the License Manager, paste (Ctrl+V) the license key and press Submit.

After your license is validated, press Continue. Congratulations, your software is ready to use.
