Only Instagram disconnects OpenVPN?

mcoffee000

Hi,
OpenVPN works flawlessly on my Android phone. The only exception to this is when using the Instagram app.

It will stay connected until I start flicking through Instagram stories, then the OpenVPN connection will quietly disconnect in the background.
Has anyone else seen this happen? Is it possible that instagram doesn't like VPN connections and can interrupt the data flow, causing the disconnection?
The OpenVPN didn't log the connection failure at all.

(Interestingly, My VPN has it's own IPSec based VPN app. When connecting with that, only Instagram will stop loading data. All other apps wok fine. It works fine if I don't use a VPN at all).

Are you using your own server or an online service provider ?

Hi,
An online VPN provider

Instagram can probably work out that you are using a VPN then.

But the reason it does not work can be anything

from .. instagram does not work with a VPN unless you can configure the server to support it
to .. instagram just does not allow VPN clients to use their service

There is not much we can do to help you and I doubt the VPN provider will help either.

If you try running your own VPN server you might be able to work it out.

Or ask instagram for help ... :lol:

Instagram is a social networking app which allows its users to share pictures and videos with their friends. The app can be downloaded for free from the usual app stores. You can start Instagram video downloader here.

Perhaps the problem is in the operating system. First, you need to try reinstalling Instagram and OpenVPN.

=You will have to reinstall the entire system if the situation does not resolve. This issue has come up a lot lately for most users. It affected me too, but I was lucky to solve the problem quickly. I was afraid for my account because I recently increased my audience thanks to Famoid. Many young bloggers have used such services. If the situation is still not resolved, you can contact support.
