**(54) How to tunnel all TCP connections through the Tor network?**
First, install [Orbot](market://details?id=org.torproject.android), the Android client for Tor,
run it, press _Start_, while it connects open its _Settings_ and make sure it's setup to auto-start
on device start.
In NetGuard's _Network options_ enable _Subnet routing_ and in _Advanced options_ toggle on
_Use SOCKS5 proxy_ with address 127.0.0.1 and port as 9050 (this is the default port, if you changed
this in Orbot make the adjustment here also).
This should be enough, if testing fails (eg. no connection at all) you can open the app details
for Orbot, uncheck _Apply rules and conditions_ and retry.
How to test: open Firefox (or another non-proxy enabled browser) to the address https://ipleak.net/
and you should see a different IP address from your regular one, and below in the _Tor Exit Node_
field something else besides _Unknown_.
**Be aware** that all the other Tor caveats (https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en) still apply,
like having the Tor network unreacheable, your activity actively monitored/targeted in your country,
online services (eg. Gmail, Google Play store) failing to login or being forced to solve endless capchas
when accessing sites that use Cloudflare's CDN services.
<br />
**NetGuard is supported for phones and tablets only, so not for other device types like on a television or in a car.**
