A local server for managing proxy settings in an intermittent network may include a processor, and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The local server may also include an internet connection manager to manage data transfer from the internet to the local server, and a wireless local area network (LAN) access point to communicatively couple at least one local client device to the local server. The local server may also include a local network manager to, when executed by the processor, manage a network including the local client device to use the local server as a proxy server, and a configuration manager to automatically configure the local client device.
