How to wrap your existing TCP connection to SOCKS proxy:

Original:

var cli = new TcpClient("httpbin.org", 80);
var stream = cli.GetStream();

Change to:

var stream = new Socks4ClientStream("proxyserver", 1080, "httpbin.org", 80);

Or if you need TcpClient to proxy:

var cli = new TcpClient("proxyserver", 1080);
var stream = new Socks4ClientStream(cli.GetStream(), "httpbin.org", 80);

Proxy Chain:

var step1 = new Socks4ClientStream();
step1.Plug("127.0.0.1", 1080); // 1st proxy
step1.Route("127.0.0.1", 1081); // 2nd proxy

var step2 = new Socks4ClientStream();
step2.Plug(step1);
step2.Route("127.0.0.1", 1082); // 3rd proxy

var step3 = new Socks4ClientStream(step2, "httpbin.org", 80); // you can do same in constructor - route to destination

var stream = step3;
