[QUOTE="SerialCart, post: 1038241, member: 83401"] As a person offering Mullvad I can not tell you that I recommend it or not ... obviously because of the conflict of interest :D .... But as a user, I would recommend it but you should make some changes in your settings. If some websites block WireGuard, that means no VPN would work. One solution that has worked for me at least till now is to change the WireGuard port. Not many VPN providers have this option in their app. You can try different ports for WireGuard. And for OpenVPN, you can also see if changing the protocol from UDP to TCP makes any changes. Also the OVPN ports. From a technical point of view this is the same issue for all VPN providers no matter if it is Mullvad or not. I am personally using NextDNS private DNS service with my own custom profile. Try to use this method too as some websites/services might had blocked Mullvad DNS servers. You can find a how to article here: [URL unfurl="true"]https://aionets.com/privacy-guides/how-to-get-mullvad-vpn-to-work-with-nextdns-with-custom-configurations/[/URL] I hope that I could have helped.
