I've recently started using socks proxies via ssh and I was surprised about how far you can go with such solution.

Unless you want permanent connection with routing and everything, ssh socks proxy work awesomely.

Point a firefox profile to use it and you can really act as if you were in a different subnet: it can proxy dns resolution too.
