Is anyone currently managing to use proXPN via OpenVPN?



I tried using the config files from both the Mac and Windows downloads per these instructions: http://downgoat.net/2013/04/20/proxpn-openvpn-on-linux-configuration/



But I keep getting a timeout when I try to connect.

          When you install proxpn there is a directory called config.. Generally you can just copy that over the config directory in openvpn clients and then hit connect.



          Here are the openvpn server addresses:
          Dallas: 107.6.100.3
          NY: 173.231.141.114
          NL: 213.179.208.131
          UK: 78.157.207.131
          LA: 64.27.29.67
          Seattle: 216.18.231.179
          Singapore: 223.27.170.51



          When you are making your own custom config file, it should always have one of those addresses, like remote 107.6.100.3 443



          We always use port 443 as the default, but we have 80 and 8080 ports mirrored in case there is some problem with 443



          Here are the paid users ports blacklist:
          20:21
          25
          8080
          110
          135:139
          143
          445
          465
          585
          993
          995
          3389
          5900:5999



          You should choose a custom port if you want to run vnc or rdp. or connect via the real home ip address/port forwarding for those protocols.

          Remote subnet and mask are supposed to be passed from the server -> user, so those are not static values so the user should leave those remote subnet and mask at 0.0.0.0 (default) mppe checked no domain name, just username.

              Remote subnet and mask are supposed to be passed from the server -> user, so those are not static values so the user should leave those remote subnet and mask at 0.0.0.0 (default) mppe checked no domain name, just username.

                When you install proxpn there is a directory called config.. Generally you can just copy that over the config directory in openvpn clients and then hit connect.



                Here are the openvpn server addresses:
                Dallas: 107.6.100.3
                NY: 173.231.141.114
                NL: 213.179.208.131
                UK: 78.157.207.131
                LA: 64.27.29.67
                Seattle: 216.18.231.179
                Singapore: 223.27.170.51



                When you are making your own custom config file, it should always have one of those addresses, like remote 107.6.100.3 443



                We always use port 443 as the default, but we have 80 and 8080 ports mirrored in case there is some problem with 443



                Here are the paid users ports blacklist:
                20:21
                25
                8080
                110
                135:139
                143
                445
                465
                585
                993
                995
                3389
                5900:5999



                You should choose a custom port if you want to run vnc or rdp. or connect via the real home ip address/port forwarding for those protocols.
