# Firefox Browser

> Configure a NodeMaven proxy in the Firefox browser's native network settings.

These are the steps for integrating NodeMaven proxies with the Firefox browser using Firefox's own network settings, with no extension required.

## Set up a proxy in Firefox

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install Firefox">
    Download [Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/). If you already have the browser installed and ready, go straight to the next step.

  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure the proxy manually">
    Select **Manual proxy configuration**, add the host and port as in the example below, and check **Also use this proxy for HTTPS**.

    <Note>
      Use an HTTP proxy. The **Also use this proxy for HTTPS** checkbox routes your HTTPS browsing through that same HTTP proxy.
    </Note>
