I'm using Android Firefox 34.0.1 and I cannot find where the network settings are to setup a proxy.

HI S00j00cy, By default Firefox for Android will connect to the internet provided on the device. You will need another app to manage proxies.

However if there is only one, check out this hack from the about:config: http://webcazine.com/4949/2-ways-to-configure-proxy-server-on-firefox-for-android/ You will have to change network.proxy.http and network.proxy.type. It also mentions an addon, but it will depend what version of Firefox you have installed. Today Firefox 35 came out and it is not listed as supported yet for this version.
