In order to complete this tutorial you need basic networking and administration knowledge. This tutorial will guide you through the process of configuring the network-wide proxy redirector using Redsocks and a router with DD-WRT installed. As a result I decided to configure a transparent proxy/redirector to ensure that all traffic is really forwarded to a proxy server and there is no better place other than a router to control all network communications. Even more, I haven’t managed to configure system-wide proxy on macOS, some applications don’t respect proxy settings and send network traffic directly. I use SOCKS5 proxies regularly and I need to configure browsers, change system settings every time configuration changes. Personally I have a very cheap router TP-Link TL-WR841ND v8, I have never thought that this device could have all these features that are available now thanks to the DD-WRT firmware. However one feature is missing by default is transparent proxifying of network traffic through a SOCKS5 proxy server, whereas you can establish a virtual encrypted tunnel VPN to a network directly from a DD-WRT powered router. DD-WRT is a great firmware that is developed to enhance the performance and bring powerful features to cheap routers (even < 50$), making them super routers.
