Telegram Proxy Guides

Configuration, protocol, troubleshooting, and network-specific articles based on common Telegram proxy questions. Each guide below focuses on a single practical problem — connecting a Telegram proxy for the first time, choosing between MTProto and SOCKS5, fixing a connection stuck on "Connecting," or testing servers on a Pakistani mobile or broadband network.

If you are new to the topic, start with How to Add Proxy in Telegram for the setup basics on Android, iPhone, and desktop. If you already have a proxy but it stopped working, go straight to the troubleshooting guide. For a live list of public MTProto servers you can connect to directly, visit the homepage directory instead of searching for a free telegram proxy manually across forums and channels.
