Sometimes the data compression proxy extension and the Data Saver (beta) extension only work if you are already connected to internet. For example my ISP needs to login to use internet; I can enable these two extensions when I login to ISP-Internet Service Provider or else I can't connect to internet and hosts file has no use with these two extensions.
