VPN - Content blocks

[St34lth3r]

Hi,

Anyone else found that VPN providers are getting blocked more on general sites and streaming providers.

Found Amazon limited the other day. Its like the VPN providers need to cycle their IP's a bit more....

It really is frustrating that sites like Amazon block regular VPN usage. I can understand a company like Netflix or Amazon wanting to stop it for geo location reasons (even if it is a pain), but Amazon should differentiate between their regular site and their streaming stuff IMO.

I should have clarified. I can understand Amazon wanting to stop it for Prime Video for geographic reasons.... but not their regular shopping site. Hope that makes more sense.

You do know you can still be tracked using a VPN. Also some VPN's Choke your speed.

Your isp can see that you are connected to a VPN server but all the data is encrypted.
Encryption of data usually increases latency so you will lose speed.
Also depending on the vpn server location that you choose, that will play a factor.

i found a very odd issue this morning ,
When i connect my IPvanish VPN after only 5 secs my WIFI totally drops out on my Device
Ip vanish still appears connected but i can do nothing as my device has no WIFI until i disconnect Ipvanish
i tried different countries but same problem instantly no WIFI after 5 secs ,
i also rebooted router but that changes nothing .
Anyone else experienced this problem ?? IF So any solution found ??
this only started this morning approx 7am before i never had a problem with IP Vanish for years .

i have tested Nord VPN and with that there is zero issues WIFI remains Online but Nord will not allow me to access BBCiplayer or My Discovery+ Account
where Ip vanish would .

Have you tried changing the protocol?
Also have you tried a fresh install of Ipvanish?
Are you running the latest version of Ipvanish?
