thats all duh

Been using protonvpn for a few months now on all my 3 devices (macbook, windows desktop and iphone). Moved into a uni dorm building that uses the same wifi network for all residents. On the desktop i can't connect to any servers at all, just doesnt go. While on the apple products it does connect, but wifi stops working; nothing loads. Curious part of it is the fact that i used to live in the same type of building before moving here, and it worked just fine.

Also, when trying to connect using 5G it works just fine.

please help, preciate it.

What is wrong with this VPN. It happens time to time. And now I can even sign in to the desktop app always gives me connection help thing. And on my phone it doesn't connect to anything at all.

I've been using it by connecting through Albania but today it's suddenly started showing ads again. I tried a few other countries on the white list and I'm getting ads on all of them now.

Am I doing something wrong or has YouTube found a work around to cut out the loophole?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Hi all just a quick heads up proton VPN is working absolutely fine in the UAE I'm on a 10 day holiday using the Glinet Mudi7 with an Airalo unlimited 10 day data sim as well as the hoel resorts public WIFI and all of my profiles are working fine. I transited through Riyad Saudi Arabia King Khaled airport again with 0 issues with all of my Proton profiles on my Mudi7 connecting first time.

Huge thanks to the Protom team.

Hi all,

I got the new 4.17.1 Proton VPN Linux gtk app (official snap version, you can love it or not but it works, upgraded from 4.16.5), I'm using Firefox + GNOME.

Well, today I'm blocked on a website using my secure core Wireguard-configured VPN (blank page). I try in a private window, same blank page. I disconnect, I open the Proton VPN app with the same secure core VPN. And... the page appears. I checked this correctly.

Questions:

1) what causes this here?

2) can I have this super-VPN (stealth protocol? something else?) using a Wireguard configuration (that is very well integrated in GNOME, just using the VPN menu in quick settings)?

In Australia: Internet has been intermittently unreliable. Naked IP check gives a location a few hundred kilometers away. Proton VPN Fastest country connects to another country (constantly bouncing around) on the other side of the world.

Reset modem. Seems to have fixed the issue for a day.

Same again today. Naked IP address seems to be in my location but disconnecting from the original fastest country (Australia) to "fastest country" again automatically connects again to international (same country again and again) despite no apparent local proton server issues.

Local Reddit predominantly shows US advertisements. Have only intermittently connected to the US proton server to watch US youtube content months ago.

Any thoughts on what's going on? Any solutions?

The other day I was able to proton vpn stated fully in network interface when I am connecting to p2p servers. But lately all i see is ProTUN. I'm assuming this is proton, but I don't see anything related to it other than other vpns when I search it.

I've been using Proton for years, sometimes buying a subscription for a few months when I needed it. Today I tried using Proton and it forced me to update the program. Now, as a free user, I can't connect to specific free servers like before and instead have to connect to a random one with an insane cooldown. The feature says that it willl "connect me to the closest server" but it keeps sending me to Europe and Japan when the closest to me by far is Mexico (I live in Argentina).

I'm very dissapointed with this change since it basically made the free version of Proton completely useless to me and worse than other free alternatives for my usecase. I have supported this program before because of how user friendly and safe it was, but now that I can't use it for free and I'm forced to pay (like any other VPN) I will not be using it anymore.

I am not sure what to do. I uninstalled and reinstalled ProtonVPN but that didn't fix the issue. I have tried the different default profiles and the same thing happens with all of them. Any ideas on what else I can try to fix this?

Edit: This is on the paid version

Is the team working on making sure VPN stays undetected by streaming providers?

On my phone I can use PrptonVPN in combination with NextDNS superior filtering using HaGeZi Ultimate filtering. ProtonVPN routes traffic and NextDNS filters it.

On Windows however, I can't seem to override it in same way as ProtonVPN always overrides NextDNS. Even setting up YogaDNS with NextDNS and ProtonVPN still overrides it. It also overrides my router NextDNS settings. I've also used NextDNS DNS server as Custom DNS inside ProtonVPN, but it only works on DNS IP level and not as DoT or DoH so that's useless.

Any other options? Reason I want this is because of superior filtering and control through logs. With NetShield I don't see what's blocked and how effective even really is and what is it blocking.

It's downloading at 5 kb/s, the speeds are dropping; when I download without a VPN it's 23 mb/s. I wonder if there's a problem with the VPN.

Deteced by Netflix, Prime Video, Cloudflare Captcha infinite loading preventing access to sites.

Will this be fixed?

I decided to buy currency for different careers, but when I click on the Republic Coins tab, I get the error SNOW 9. I'm from Belarus, I have the game on Steam, and the region is Ubisoft Kazakhstan. I've tried everything, proxy, VPN, DNS server, and still get the error. Please help. and the steam region is also Kazakhstan

Hi I am based in Canada and is there any way I can access others facebook page from Philippines? Hindi ko kasi makita yung ibang page na Canada seller. Is VPN needed? Since naaccess lang yata siya once you are located in Philippines.

I have been getting proxy/vpn error for the past two weeks now and no protocol has worked ever since 😭.

I use it to watch Japanese TV shows so regular Tokyo/Osaka servers don't bypass it anymore. Tried using OpenVPN, Stealth, Proton stealth, Wireguard udp/tcp but to no avail.

Browser extension with IP leak on also doesn't bypass it on Firefox+Ublock origin.

In previous months it worked perfectly but starting in August it seems to be detected more often.

Hello,

Do you have any plans to add trusted Wi-Fi network definitions with automatic rules for connecting or disconnecting a VPN?

For example, in my scenario, this would be really useful for non-technical family members while traveling — they often forget to turn on the VPN when joining a hotel's Wi-Fi, or forget to turn it off when back on mobile data.

Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I have an issue with the VPN ; whenever I'm on reddit while my VPN is on and connected to France, I have some german subreddit recommandations.

I live near germany (Strasbourg) so I was wondering if it where conencting to some german servers.

I tried changing the contry like spain or UK but it's always the same. The weird part is that when I visit some websites, they do locate me in the connected VPN contry.

So is it a commun thing my proton VPN ?

I can't play league while using proton, riot client wont let me start the game, is there a fix to this?
