I have a problem with Protonvpn blocking 443 port TCP

I cannot use protonvpn and the website has been blocked in college but 443 is closed now I use another service vpn only port is 80 and TCP still working but I can’t use 443 it is blocked.

But on my iPhone protonvpn uses wireguard(TCP) still working I don’t know why I am on laptop doesn’t let me to connect the vpn on protonvpn, something wrong with it because they’re blocked now.

Is there alternative or should I report to protonvpn to fix it? It must be hard to report but I don’t know how to do it.

If I understand your question correctly. This may an issue with the network that you are connected to. They may have a policy that restricts port 443.

If you go to the app Settings > Advanced > Allow Alternative Routing.

Allow alternative routing will give the application the ability to communicate thru port 80. Once AAR is enabled you should be able to use any of the available protocols. If your phone begins to have the same issue try the AAR setting there. It may be that the network administrators have an automated rule set that has not blocked mobile devices due to this segment of communication having a lower overall volume of traffic.

Have you tried using a different protocol and location on your laptop? If you provide me the domain where you are having issues, maybe I can test if I have the same problem on my side and try to help you :slight_smile:

Do you still want any help with this?

I can see it’s on but still not working I don’t know any 80 isn’t available for protonvpn servers

College has been adjusted limited for my laptop only than iPhone isn’t blocked or bypass limit it’s faster than my laptop either the app is not working I was think it is blocked or all servers isn’t available or blocked. I suspect what happened with it.

When I connect the VPN then waiting about few minutes then it dropped and reconnects not their server nickname won’t show up for a reason it’s already blocked.

I don’t know anything alternative for this will not work for me but does they can make a protocol for wireguard tcp on laptop (windows) but only macOS supported

I most use OpenVPN (TCP) it bypass any college or work I live in the UK

I’ve tested many protocol are blocked.

Well this is unhelpful now.

I’ve emailed the protonvpn and some library and college difficulty to connect the vpn but it’s really bad idea now.

Your English is a bit confusing.

Did you enable ”Allow Alternative Routing”?

Port 80 is the default computing port for internet communication. If the school is blocking ports they will not block port 80 because that is all internet traffic. If you enable Allow Alternative Routing Proton will switch to communicating on port 80 Automatically.

As you know I’ve installed protonvpn with default I can see it’s on but still not work

Search for “proton settings” on a search engine to find instruction that show where the “Settings” are.

When you find ”settings”, go there and enable “Allow Alternative Routing”. Then restart the device

I’ve told you it’s already enabled because default that the option still on

Are you using the free servers? If so I will save you some time. As I have no experience with the free servers I will not be able to help you. I only have experience with the subscription service.

Have you tried Smart protocol?

If using windows Click start. Type CMD. When the black screen opens Type “ipconfig/release“. Enter. Type ipconfig/flush DNS. Enter Type ipconfig/renew. Enter

Look up term “winsock reset” Folllow these instructions.

Why are you asking I am using free servers? No I will never use it I have paid it and I am very disappointed if it’s not help. Paid VPN should have bypassed any college/work

Addition I don’t use a free vpn either it’s getting blocked.

So please don’t make unnecessary for that. Not sure I will try to do it and reinstall the app thank for helping.
