Tor is Anonymity Online

Tor prevents anyone from learning your location or browsing habits. Tor is for web browsers, instant messaging clients, remote logins, and more. Tor Protects your privacy. Defend yourself against network surveillance and traffic analysis.

Tor overview

NOTE: Tor can't solve all anonymity problems.

It should be noted that you should NOT run bittorrent through Tor – not only does anonymization not work for bittorrent, it can expose your identity in any other traffic you run through Tor.

You need to realise that Tor is never going to be blazing fast. Your traffic is bouncing through volunteers' computers in various parts of the world, and some bottlenecks and network latency will always be present. You shouldn't expect to see university-style bandwidth through Tor.

In your router configuration select

–» Connection –» Tor –» Tor Client:

Every client that wants to be protected must select enable at the Gargoyle router login screen.

All clients are protected by Tor

Some Protocols may bypass Tor therefore compromise your Anonymity.

Select either

All services will work but your Anonymity may be less

Anonymity will be improved but some services may no longer work.

To enable by each host (Per IP address) you must set a static IP address per host.

Once the host (Client PC) has a fixed IP address log out and reconnect to Gargoyle and you should get this screen

Click “Enable Tor for Your IP” and you should be protected.

I would suggest you test that your router is working properly by visiting “Check”

Check determines if you are successfully browsing with Tor.
