Most internet providers in your home or office will provide a Modem-Router device to convert the connection from DSL, Fiber or Satellite to digital data.

And here's the commonly used proxy server model:

XProxy box is a server that connects right behind the Modem-Router device of the internet provider. And the disadvantage following this model are:

• The speed limit of Ethernet port on Modem-Router.
• The limit of concurrent connections and concurrent users on Modem-Router.
      This limit can lead to Modem-Router freezing, which is a prevalent issue when configuring a proxy system for business purposes or requiring a proxy with numerous connections.


• Your Modem-Router don't support a NAT feature.
• The NAT feature of Modem-Router altered (interfere) the Protocol Data Unit and make the UDP proxy of XProxy not working.
