This isn't so much a support topic as much as a feature request-- I couldn't find a place to do a request, so I suppose I'll place it here.

Since my N900 is Wi-Fi enabled (and with the advent of GSM being a breakable protocol) I decided to install Fennec because I assumed it would have proxy settings, whereas the Ovi browser doesn't. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that there are any proxy settings in Fennec, either. So I'd like to formally request them, as I can easily just set up an ssh tunnel on my phone to utilize this feature whenever I need to.

I suppose my follow-up question is this: are there limitations on the N900 device that prevent the Fennec team from adding these settings in the first place?

Extensions installed:

None.

Ah, I forgot about about:config. It looks like the proxy settings are in here. Nevermind, problem solved. :)
