<<<<<Response:
Still no way to set exceptions to proxy settings in the network applet in 12.04.
I would also add that with the previous network settings GUI, we had the
possibility to create "profiles" for proxy settings. It was quite useful when
you worked regularly at different locations, each with different network
proxy... You just had to select the corresponding profile and everything
worked. Now you have to change your settings manually each time you move to
another location.
Looks like a regression to me :-(
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
still a problem in Ubuntu 13.04 raring!!!
profiles would be a great idea... as you could choose to not have a proxy
network at home but one at work!
It would be great if it was fixed.. like it was in the previous proxy network
applet.

Bug description:
I can't found a easy (not-cli, at least) way of changing the proxy
settings in Ubuntu 11.10. There is no option to change any network
settings in gnome-control-center, and the network-applet does not have
the option to change the proxy.
I think that a GUI for changing the proxy is a must-have, specially
since it was available in Ubuntu 11.04. Also, is my opinion that, at
least in the long term, the proxy settings should be related to the
network options, so a different proxy is set to every network
(specially important for notebooks with are used in different
locations).
A screenshot of gnome-control-center is attached, showing the lack of
network options.
