sites blocking VPN access and how to overcome!

By ben sim

this applies to streaming sites too!

Here are some ways to get around blacklists:

  • Only use premium VPN services, and avoid anything that’s too good to be true.
  • Opt for a slower, more secure VPN protocol.
  • Get a private VPN IP address.
  • Most VPNs use the 1194 port, which is easy to detect. Try switching your VPN port to 2018, 41185, 433, or 80.
  • If your VPN service offers obfuscated servers, use them.
  • If your VPN service offers SSH, SSL, or TLS tunnels, then try them out. They’re slow, yet secure.
  • Try using the Tor browser.
