Hmm, maybe I’m missing something here but… in general normal network setting work fine. You just need not to be blocking Tor. Do you have some special network configurations you’re worried about?  
If you haven’t - I would just see if Bisq works - look at the bottom of the screen to see if you’re connected to peers 🥂 .

Thx. Yes, apparently I’m connected:  
peers: 12 / synchronized with Bitcoin Mainnet (using Tor).
