Default connection in proxy list

Can you tell how to "enter" a direct connection into the proxy list, i. e. make direct connection intermittent with proxy connections?

It's not possible.

-------------------------------------

Can you add this functionality then?

I don't see a reason.

-------------------------------------

The reason is intuitively obvious. As far as I uderstand, the purpose of proxy list is for a user to have many different IPs thus speeding up the download from the hosts that restrict the amount of data and/or speed based on the client's IP. Therefore, by entering direct connection into the proxy list a user will extend the amount of IPs available to him. For instance, having 4 proxies with the ability to enter direct connection into your proxy list is the same as having 5 proxies without this ability.

No one is sure what you really want.
It's possible to set a proxy to a default connection. Default connection is also used for downloading.

I told you what I wanted. If you're having trouble understanding English, there's nothing I can do about it

I don't know what a "direct connection to a proxy list" means.

It means that you can't quote. I haven't said "direct connection to a proxy list", I've said "enter a direct connection into the proxy list" and what that means is adding an entry to the proxy list which will be interpreted as a command to use direct connection instead of a proxy.

Suppose I have 4 Mbit/sec bandwidth and want to download from a host which limits the speed of a single connection to 1 Mbit/sec and does not support multiple connections from a single IP, but I only know 3 reliable proxy servers. So, with current functionality, even if I enter all 3 into my proxy list, I will only get 3 Mbit/sec from this host. But if I'm able to use direct connection along with the connections to those proxies I'll get 4 Mbit/sec: 1 for each proxy and 1 for direct connection.

That is exacly what I want to be able to do.

It's already possible to use default connection while also using proxies.
