How to connect to proxy server internet with windows phone

Hi guys! I'm a student and I live at a dormitory. There's wi-fi internet here, but it's protected by a proxy server. I have a Nokia Lumia 830 and after going to settings, I activated the proxy option entering the URL and the Port. Then, I opened Internet Explorer ...but the only thing I got was a message saying something like: cache not recognized, contact administrator. Basically it didn't ask for my username and password , thing that usually happens when I enter through my PC. I'm desperate, cause I just bought the phone and really need t use internet. I would really appreciate any kind of help. Thanks in advance.

find the network name (under SETTINGS >> WiFi) and login there - PROXY or not ...
