Can't connect to VPN servers from within China
Last Updated 5 years ago
Connecting to VPN from within China is notoriously difficult due to the Chinese Firewall.
Solution #1:
On Windows and Mac only - try connecting via the servers in Special tab marked with "Stunnel" in the server name.
Solution #2:
If Stunnel servers also don't work, go to "Settings" in VPNArea for Windows/Mac/Android -> Change "Server Protocol" to TCP. "Server Port" to 443 and retry connecting.
If you still can't connect please let support team know and we will see what could be done.
