TuKAN :: Remote web access :: Setup
The configuration moved to "http://www.slpk.sk/proxy.pac"; update your settings, please! Due to diversity, it is impossible to provide support in configuring or sorting out problems relating to remote network access in all cases.

Of course, before using preset FF, you need to unzip (extract) it first to an appropriate directory of your choice (e.g. right-click extract all) and not by clicking on the zip-file and running it from distributing archive! When FF requires updating, allow it, please.

Setup for Firefox (and browsers using own settings, OS-independent):
Tools >> Options >> General >> Network Proxy >> Settings >> Automatic proxy configuration URL: http://www.slpk.sk/proxy.pac

Setup for MS Windows Edge / Internet Explorer (and browsers using system settings, e.g. Chrome):
