Rellik Hope this is the right board for this question. Anyone using OpenVPN and still being occasionally blocked by ISP? Firefox is talking to block.opendns.com and then showing me a blocked message with the name of the website I tried to access (i.e openvpn.net is a blocked website here). I'm running an openvpn server from my house and connecting while I'm traveling from my windows 10 laptop. It doesn't happen all the time but occasionally. I can't figure of why it works sometimes and I get blocked others. I tried a dns leak test and didn't see anything. Below is part of my config file if that helps. Thanks for any ideas or thoughts. ----------------------------------------- dev tun tls-client remote (Purposely Hid this Part) redirect-gateway def1 block-local dhcp-option DNS 8.8.8.8 pull proto udp script-security 2 comp-lzo reneg-sec 0 cipher AES-256-CBC auth SHA512 auth-user-pass
TinCanTech Your ISP is not blocking you .. opendns is. And they do it on purpose because that is what you asked them to do. Although, I highly doubt they would block openvpn.net ..
Rellik Thanks for your response but I'm not blocking anything. As I said, sometimes I can get to websites and sometimes I get blocked by ISP. I know it's the ISP because if I don't use my OpenVPN client, I get blocked 100% of the time. See image. https://photos.app.goo.gl/99ZBXqwVmh3tHrA32

Rellik I can only spell this out so clearly. I type in a website such as openvpn.net or thechive.com and the browser is rerouted to block.opendns.com. This happens 100% when not using my openVPN client and partial when I am.
