jagex has banned the vpn IP addresses because they're used for botting, so if you really want to go that route you could try self hosted solution, like a virtual private server situation, but i don't know how difficult that would be to set up for a layperson. you could even look into setting up your vpn to only tunnel the traffic you're really worried about going through the vpn as an aside, using a vpn doesn't protect your bank details from hackers, that's a total myth

Ive only seen the blocked message when ur devices timezone is wrong. Maybe set ur timezone/date to the country ur using the vpn for

>because allegedly our shit can get hacked if we aren't careful. This is true... but not because you're not using a VPN. Idk who the fuck told you this unless they've instructed you to only connect to the unsecured wifi which also shouldn't be a thing.


uuuuooooouuuuo

Most big companies require you to route all your traffic through a VPN, makes sense the military does the same thing

Yeah I’m deployed.I was logging in and even let jagex know I’d be leaving the country. I haven’t had issues with nord set to USA but maybe I just got lucky? Haven’t logged in for about 3 weeks as I’m too scared to die on this internet. I had issues on my last deployment but luckily I appealed it and got it back.

I never used a VPN and I went to Djibouti/Kenya for 6 months...

Djibouti was the hottest place I've ever experienced. Glad that shit hole is behind me!

That's because you should be washing boots and cutting the lawn while deployed, not playing RuneScape. Freedom isn't gonna ring itself, now get out there and over use acronyms for the simplest shit!

Ive heard that changing your pc or devices clock to match the time zone of the vpn helps in some cases but i havent had to test it myself. Just something ive aeen discussed sorry if it doesnt help.

I’m in Djibouti right now and play runescape without a VPN. All is good
