I use Express VPN. First when using the iPhone, now when using the iMac, SigForum will not allow me to log in when using the IP associated with the VPN. If I turn off VPN login is allowed. I never use public Wi-Fi, so maybe the VPN is not really essential, but it seems like a worthwhile security feature. Is there a workaround so I can stay on VPN and still log in?

If you're attempting to use the VPN while away from home, the issue may be with the network you are using at the time. In the main, I have not blocked VPN IP address ranges. If you are trying to use the VPN while in, say, a restaurant or similar establishment, you need to know that some public networks disallow VPN tunneling. When you use a VPN, you are creating a secure, encrypted connection between your device and your VPN provider, but you are still using the network of wherever you happen to be; hence the term "VPN tunnel" and some establishments are not comfortable with this, as they have no view of what you are doing. For instance, I know Panera Bread disallows VPN use on their customer wireless network. I think McDonald's does this as well. | |||

sjtill, do you still need assistance? _______________________________________________ “What sickens me about left-wing people, especially the intellectuals, is their utter ignorance of the way things actually happen.” ~ George Orwell "That's one thing about intellectuals.
