Using PROTON VPN looks like ten percent of the plus servers work with OK2/3, more than 50 percent of the
PROTON VPN FREE servers (not paid ones) work for OK2/3. Must be something in the VPN settings that causes
this, go figure the free one works better. At least I can cancel the paid one and get a refund since be using it for
less than the 30 day money back guarantee :yes:
You can't compare paid with free. Free only has 5 countries and you don't choose which one it connects to, so if you get a server that does not work, you need to manually change server, and retest to make sure it works. Paid has 180 countries, and you can choose to consistently connect to the same one. So once you find one that works, you can set it to consistently connect to the same server every time your box boots up. Free is single connection and paid also allows more than one connection. And the paid version allows split tunneling which is ideal if you have other services like netflix or disney+. You can configure the app to selectively allow traffic to go through the VPN tunnel (like your IPTV app) and allow others (like netflix, etc..) to go through without VPN. That way you don't need to constantly manually enable/disable it.Quote:

I would like to chime in and end this thread.
I use a VPN and and I have a customer who's too cheap to purchase it.
First of all we use Ok3 only and both use the new 3303 url.
Secondly I use IPVanish for a few weeks since the Internet ISP outages and Ive been connecting to Cincinnati as an IP location and its been working flawless for myself and others.
She, who doesn't use a VPN, just recently got a message about "Sorry you've been blocked"
I reset the server connection through the panel and hers is fixed.
I'd also like to point out as other users have on this thread that when I connect to some other locations I was getting this message as well.
Solution is for those who don't use a VPN just have their server connection reset via the provider.
For those who do use VPN, try a different location until it works. Ciao
end this thread?
you don't have the option to do that :laughat:
