unable to connect emulator with internet

Question

hi

I am using Android 2.2 . I am unable to connect my emulator to internet .

When I open my web browser in the emulator it shows the message "Web Page not available" . I have set proxy settings in the emulator (settings -> Wireless & Networks ->Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names). Also , I set proxy settings in eclipse (Windows-> Preferences-> Android-> Launch-> Default Emulator Options). I have read many blogs and forums but I haven't found any solution yet .I am really frustrated .

Please help me out.

You have to start the emulator from the command prompt and supply the proxy server using something like this -

emulator -avd MYAVD -http-proxy http://proxyname:8000
