when using Privoxy in Leap I encounter this stable problem:

a) all works well with lan. When installing and setting browsers to
127.0.0.1:8118 privoxy works, config page works. All as expected.

b) when using wlan: Firefox does not load the pages. When telling no proxy all
works. When using search sites they load even when privoxy is aktivated (while
all other not), but apparently without using privoxy, bypassing it. 
Chromium: does load pages but although setting is to 127.0.0.1:8118 there is
not privoxy used, the load of config page answers that privoxy is not being
used. Again this is only with wlan. No problem while in Lan. 

I looked up hwinfo: wlan0 and eth0 are the interfaces. 
I looked whether they have IP, yes they have. 
I looked with netstat -tulpn. Privoxy proudly listens on 8118 as expected. 

What should the software do:
work with lan as well as with wlan. 

TOR is currently not used in this setting.
