Safari uses the Mac's system-wide proxy setting, so these steps set the proxy for everything on the Mac.
Your proxy details
-
Proxy server address: proxy.mysetup.co.uk
-
Port: 80
-
Username & password: the same login you use at www.libertyshield.com
Note: Our proxy is UK-based, so websites will see you in the United Kingdom. The proxy does not work for other countries — for those, use the VPN instead.
Set up the proxy
-
Click the Apple menu () and choose System Settings.
-
Click Network in the sidebar, select your connection (Wi-Fi or Ethernet), then click Details….
-
Choose Proxies in the left list.
-
Turn on Web proxy (HTTP) — enter server proxy.mysetup.co.uk and port 80, then turn on “Proxy server requires password” and enter your Liberty Shield username and password.
-
Turn on Secure web proxy (HTTPS) with the same details.
-
Click OK.

Check it's working
Visit showmemyip.com — it should show a UK location. The first page you open will ask for your username and password — enter your Liberty Shield login.
Turning the proxy off
Go back to the Proxies pane and switch both proxies off, then click OK.
