Check if your desktop can access swg.safesquid.in:8080
From your desktop:
- ping swg.safesquid.in
This should tell you if the FQDN is resolvable by your desktop
- telnet swg.safesquid.in 8080
If the FQDN is resolvable, this will tell you if your desktop can actually connect to the service

After checking for the 'ping' command, it appears like this

Obviously then your desktop cannot resolve the FQDN swg.safesquid.in
Instead of setting the FQDN as the proxy host, you should set the IP address of your proxy service in your browser configuration

I have a question regarding the SafeSquid interface. Are the credentials 192.168.221.1 and port 8080 correct for accessing it?

I presume you followed instructions from:
https://docs.safesquid.com/wiki/Standard_Installation
for installation
After the installation was done, the first login should have prompted you to set password for user
administrator

Next you would need to activate the instance as:
https://docs.safesquid.com/wiki/How_to_ ... d_Instance
you should provide credentials as:
username: administrator
password: <the password you set during the first log in on the console>
