[Python] python 3.10 can't set proxy HTTP/HTTPS on selenium 4

selenium 4.2.0
python 3.10.4


Having issue while trying to set up proxy on gecko driver Firefox using python Tried with

from selenium.webdriver import Firefox
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options

profile_path = r'C:\Users\Hodzi\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\dzwrop1t.default-release'
options=Options()
options.set_preference('profile', profile_path)
options.set_preference('network.proxy.type',1)
options.set_preference('network.proxy.http', '154.30.216.64')
options.set_preference('network.proxy.http_port', 8800)

service = Service()
driver = Firefox(service=service, options=options)
driver.get("https://www.whatismyip.com/")
driver.quit()


Output: My regular IP address

In settings I see this.



If I manually check "Also use this proxy for HTTPS!" then it works.

Is it possible to check or set this proxy through code also ?
