WPS Cloud Sync Proxy Configuration Guide > 자유게시판

Setting up a proxy for WPS Cloud Sync is crucial if you’re on a corporate network, behind a firewall, or in a region with restricted internet access.

If the proxy is incorrectly configured, WPS Cloud Sync will be unable to reach its cloud infrastructure, blocking sync operations, backup uploads, and document access.

The process involves adjusting network settings within the WPS Office application to ensure it can route traffic through the designated proxy.

Begin by launching the WPS Office application on your computer.

Navigate to the top menu and select Tools, then choose Settings from the dropdown list.

This opens the Options dialog box.

Within the Settings window, locate and click on the Cloud Sync tab.

This section contains settings for your linked cloud account, sync frequency, and file handling preferences.

Look for an option labeled Network or Proxy Settings.

If you do not immediately see it, check for an Advanced Settings button or similar link that may expand additional network configuration options.

You must decide whether to bypass the proxy or actively route all cloud traffic through it.

Choose "Use Proxy Server" from the available radio buttons.

The proxy address is typically a fully qualified domain name or IPv4

This information is typically provided by your network administrator or IT department.

Enter the port number associated with the proxy server’s service.

Typical proxy ports are 8080, 3128, 80, 8888, or 8000, but your organization may use a non-standard port.

If your proxy server requires authentication, enable the option for username and password authentication.

Enter the credentials provided to you by your network administrator.

Verify your input carefully — a misplaced character or incorrect capitalization will cause the login to fail.

WPS Cloud Sync may ask you to select the correct proxy protocol from a dropdown menu.

WPS Cloud Sync typically supports HTTP and HTTPS; choose the one that matches your network’s configuration.

Click "Save" or "Confirm" to finalize the proxy configuration.

WPS Office will attempt to establish a connection to the cloud servers using the new proxy configuration.

A visual indicator — such as a status bar update or pop-up — will confirm connectivity.

Contact your network administrator to confirm that WPS Cloud Sync’s URLs are not blocked by filtering rules.

If you’re using Linux or macOS, look for equivalent settings under the application’s preferences.

In these cases, the Cloud Sync settings can often be accessed through the WPS Office Preferences window, which is located under the WPS Office menu on macOS or the main application menu on Linux.

In some environments, proxy rules are defined via a.pac file hosted on an internal server.

If your network uses a PAC file, you may need to configure the system-wide proxy settings in your operating system instead of within WPS Office.

On macOS, go to System Settings → Network → Advanced → Proxies → Automatic Proxy Configuration.

Once the system proxy is correctly configured, WPS Office will typically inherit these settings automatically.

Lastly, ensure that your firewall or antivirus software is not blocking WPS Office from accessing the internet through the proxy.

You may need to add WPS Office to the list of allowed applications in your security software.

After completing all steps, restart WPS Office to ensure the proxy settings are fully active.

Test the synchronization by uploading or modifying a document to confirm that changes are syncing properly with the cloud.

Following this guide ensures WPS Cloud Sync operates reliably behind corporate proxies.
