Use a proxy with connected devices #307

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I use a restricted network and often have to use a proxy to overcome it but I can't share the proxy to the connected devices

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to be able to input a proxy server address and port and have the connected devices go through this proxy

Describe alternatives you've considered I have tried to set the http_proxy and https_proxy env variables in the terminal and used create_ap to create the hotspot but It does not work

It seems you need a VPN client with TUN mode. Then you can use TUN as the internet interface. It's my case.
