So, for privacy and security reasons, I use a VPN. This is normally Mullvad (with DAITA and quantum resistance enabled), but I have ProtonVPN, Windscribe, and Orbot handy in case something doesn’t work.

However, lately I’ve noticed my connections being blocked. This is across three different ISPs: Sky, Virgin, and Wifinity. I have tried all three VPNs and Orbot, and I have tried several protocols (WireGuard, OpenVPN, IKEv2, Stealth, and of course SOCKS5) to no avail.

The logical solution would be to use a bridge in Orbot, but the button seems to have been removed. Also, by using Orbot, I will not be protected by my DNS.

I am currently using iOS, but my other machines run Linux and I will be getting a GrapheneOS phone in the near future.

Can anyone help?

    VPN failing to connect. Stealth mode didn’t work, as described above. I’m in the UK.

    Another user provided a working solution:

    @hellfire103 I bet it’s the DAITA on your Mullvad, choose MultiHop instead with Wireguard, quantum resist. and obfuscation . Then use a Linux set from boot SOCKS5 as you desire. I hope it helps.

    However, alternative solutions would be appreciated.
