It would be absolutely bizarre if you couldn’t connect with WireGuard port
and Wireguard obfuscation
set to Automatic
. Things to try first:
- Connect without your VPN and try to access a single website like the theguardian.com
- Once that’s working, enable your VPN and that should do it.
- If you still can’t get connected, try switching out different countries. Each country listed corresponds to an IP to which your machine will try to connect over a benign port like 443 – so blocking that sort of traffic would be mad unless the IP is explicitly blocked. Therefore, driving to different country targets offers a different IP every time. They’d have to know Mulvad’s whole list and block them all.
If the above somehow doesn’t work, Mulvad offers support through which you can get a temporary Server IP override
. You can enter that in the bottom portion of your app’s settings.
At the firewall level, port forwarding forwards traffic bound for one port to another machine on your network on an arbitrary port, but the UI built on top of it in your router may not include this.
If it’s not an option in your Fritzbox, your options are:
The first and last options on this list are probably the best.
