Accessing Internet from Emulator in Android

Question

enter image description here I am trying to access internet (http://www.google.co.in/) through my project say "WebViewDemo".
It works fine in device but not in emulator. I am able to access internet (http://www.google.co.in/) through the browser of the emulator. But my project displays "Web Page is not available".

I am behind a proxy. I have added INTERNET permission in the AndroidManifest.xml file

No need to add any thing for getting internet on emulator , if you have internet for your PC, you can get internet on emulator.

Try this

In Eclipse:

Window>Preferences>Android>Launch

In the Default emulator options, put the value -dns-server 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4

If this does not work, check this post How to set Internet options for Android emulator?
