    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Chapeau! OpenVPN started to connect again on the weekend. We even had some data trickling through. Nevertheless, still intrigued by shadowsocks. @cosmoxl: I will look into AirVPN as soon as I abandon the shadowsocks "project" (which hasn't even been kicked off yet)

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    AirVPN sounds interesting and I might give it a try if the shadowsocks solution is not for me. I assume you don't have any experience with it in China? Thanks for the input, I will keep this in mind. From what I've heard from people around ExpressVPN is considered okay at the moment but they are...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Fingers crossed! My stealthVPN CNY-aftermath free subscription just expired. Now I am left with Lantern (which works great btw) which at least covers desktop and mobile.

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    I appreciate your input and as I pointed out earlier you simply know better about Chinese (internet) oddities. And you have the convenience of a company that acknowledges the necissity of a proper VPN. Mine is actually actively targeting the use of VPNs on the company network. And I really...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    The second part I find very interesting: how do you know that a lot of the restrictions will go away soon? Ever since I've been here things have only gotten worse, never better. StealthVPN seems to be okay so far, but speed is still not amazing and hunting down the handful of servers that are...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Thanks for your input. But after 14 years of China (respect!) you know much better than I do how much mileage will vary. You might be lucky with (or more knowledgeable in selecting) your ISP (mine is pretty shirte without VPN already) but basically everyone I know reports of barely working...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Yes, I am in the internet's maximum security camp. A place where things get blocked without any (apparent) reason. The Great FireWall (GFW) of China is probably the most sophisticated digital censorship machine. Have a look at how far reaching it actually is. By the way: I wish I was in the...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Haha, I wish it was just that. I basically lost the internet. All of Google (including search, Maps, GMail, PlayStore, calendar, YouTube, etc.), social media (FB, twitter, tumblr, etc.), news (NYTimes, BBC, buzzfeed, etc.), messengers (Telegram, Signal, etc.) to name just a few things at the...

    Using shadowsocks to replace OpenVPN setup

    Hi all, This is my first post and I am really new to this. So please go easy on me. I know you are all very busy so all I am asking is a nudge in the right direction. Due to increased GFW activity and VPN interferences I am forced to look into a different solution. With OpenVPN basically shut...
