hey, first try to ping your proxy address ,may be your ethernet card is not configured properly and also check what address your getting ,run this command on the terminal "ifconfig-eth0". If you can see the ip address and also the gateway address try to ping the gateway.If your not able to ping there is some problem. If your in Gui mode type "neat " at the command prompt and then try to configure ur ethernet card and don't forget to activate it. Also check the port number at which your proxy is accessible ,to see the TCP connections "netstat -tcp",it will show you all the tcp connections made from your machine. For accessing services in local network ,From Edit menu-> Preference-> General and then No Proxy ie 192.168.1.0/24.This will by pass ur proxy for local network. If you still face the problem do mail us again.
