Hi VyprVPN Dev team,
Is there any improvement (customization when it comes to Open Source) in the usage of WireGuard in CN? I heard about your dedicated troubleshooting team. I know, you too, the WALL here.
How about “Life finds the way” BESIDES your Chameleon?
Case study: How can this Tuber app scale China’s Great Firewall that effectively?
Ref: https://fortune.com/2020/10/12/chinese-app-scales-chinas-great-firewall-then-got-taken-down/
As far as we can tell, the Chinese government is blocking:
- VPN server IP addresses
- Websites owned by VPN providers
- Ports used by VPNs
- VPN download links
- VPN traffic
Also:
Chinese government uses DPI (Deep Packet Check) to block your OpenVPN traffic.
Personally, the WALL is also trying/learning to detect, “recognize” then interfer with your Chameleon as well. In my area, only some servers are not that slow and, stable (acceptable speed), some are almost unusable, even when it comes your Chameleon.
REF: Mortimer Rodgers@ Nintendo Power.
Seems that yr Chameleon-based connections/servers have become unstable?
Private MSG is needed, if possible.
Connected then connection gets lost/blocked in few minutes: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET.
Maybe, your own DNS server has been detected & blocked.
I think the connection is getting blocked. I have same problem. It also happens when using IKEv2.
Sorry for the trouble! Our technical team is looking into it. Please bear with us. In the meantime, if you want to contact us with additional information at https://support.vyprvpn.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
@nadyap: Thx for helping us.
seems that Chameleon-based connections become normal > better (longer) now, at the time of commenting.
And, personally, if you can resolve your Chameleon-DNS blocking issue (if yes), then how about WG-DNS blocking?
UPD: the status is so unstable again.
Yeah, most connections lasts only a few minutes. It’s extremely annoying.
Maybe, your team can get/learn sth from Hotspot Shield (even the Basic ver.).
@nadyap: Seems that the connection has been restore. THX!
Again, if the WG DNS block did exist, you may fix the issue using the same method.
Wireguard works now in China?
Forget Hotspot Shield: it worked, and it’s been offline for 2 days.
Maybe, this forum has been monitored by those FUCKING guys behind the WALL.

One of latest Windows 10 updates (installed on 12/10/20) caused 6050 error in your VyprVPN for Windows (newest): 1) KB4592438 (MAYBE; did note down the exact name); KB4579311 (can’t be uninstalled or partially removed; yet using); KB4593175 (kept). 2) removed the newest/top one, 6050 is gone.
BTW, that troublesome update also caused wired sound & slow mouse (almost unmovable, freezed ) while VyprVPN was trying to establish the connection or, the connection failed due to 6050.
Hello @fukyoo Please try the latest release 4.2.0 for the Windows app.
It should be live in the next week or so and the download link will be available on our site shortly. https://www.vyprvpn.com/vpn-apps/vpn-for-windows
@nadyap: I am using the latest 10666 for Windows. Another 2 Qs: 1) I read your email re added connection numbers ( * 30 connections in Valentine’s Day special), then how about our old account, such as from 3 to 4/5? 
2) I’d prefer using the above-mentioned WG in CN (when it comes to speed), even though I am using some Chameleon sever. When will the new build@ https://www.vyprvpn.com/blog/defeat-the-strictest-censorship-with-chameleon-with-smart-ip be released? Report? Or test? Can your team fix DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET when using WG in CN?
TIA & all best!

FYI: NPC & CPPCC of 2021 is set on 3/5/21 > VPN blocks will be highly expected.
Hello, @fukyoo
Please get with our support team and we can change your account to the new one which offers 30 simultaneous connections
Though this may change in the future, we currently recommend always using Chameleon from within China. The current version of VyprVPN for Windows (4.2.2) includes Chameleon with Smart IP - if you’re on that version and still having connection trouble with Chameleon, please get with our support team and we can help out with that - https://support.vyprvpn.com/hc/requests/new
And thanks for the heads up about potential VPN blocks!
