If you are experiencing issues with the client not being able to connect to our server, please see below for information on possible causes:

  • You may have a firewall or an antivirus program might be blocking connection. Please try temporarily disabling these. 
  • OpenVPN client communicates via the port UDP 443 and 1194. These ports need to be opened in the router for OpenVPN to work. Please try changing your router settings to include correct ports. 
  • It could be due to your DNS settings. These settings are normally set automatically once the software is installed, but in rare situations these settings need to be set manually. Try manually changing your DNS to “80.67.14.78" or “8.8.8.8”.
