Why are some websites blacklisted for some servers from time to time?

Hey all, I’m using an iPhone 13 with the latest update. Until now the app was working perfectly. Since last night I’m having issues connecting to vpn, no connection seems to work. Can anyone please help with that?

Is there any way to use NextDNS with NordVPN? I want to block adult content and force safe search using NextDNS on Chrome browser, but it doesn’t seem to work, when the DoH is set in Chrome, the Internet does not work and when the VPN is ON, the DNS filter does not work Is there a workaround or a setting to make both work together?

Coming from PrivateVPN. Didn't need to use their apps to connect to their servers. Just directly connected using windows VPN client.

Is there any way to do this? I tried connecting with the account #, no password and their server address but no luck.

We either have to use their app or openVPN / Wireguard?

I have been using mullvad for more than 2 years and everything was perfect until a few months ago, my subscription is ending in a few days and I would like to know what other VPN options do you recommend? I'm looking for it to be log-free and have good speed as well as a vision similar to Mullvad. Obviously I've already tried Proton VPN but I want to know what other options exist or are recommended.

Hello! I host dedicated servers from home (mainly game servers).

I have to have my port open so people can connect but I want to have a VPN on my router.

Is there a way to allow my server to not be blocked or allowed to bypass or skip the VPN from the router?

If not I’ll just stick to per device VPN.

Much appreciated!

Hey all, im having an issue with my Windows 11 machine, it's running insider version 25H2 26200.56 if that helps at all.

I'm unsure if it's my wifi adapter driver or maybe a bad firewall rule, but my Mullvad client refuses to connect on WireGuard, but open VPN works just fine. I prefer using wireguard for the fancy bits, so if anyone has any helpful advice, that'd be swell, thanks y'all.

SGX enclaves are private areas of memory that essentially act as a secure black box and not even the operators of the service can see what’s happening inside.

But interestingly, "A pivot by Intel in 2021 resulted in the deprecation of SGX from the 11th and 12th generation Intel Core processors, but development continues on Intel Xeon for cloud and enterprise use". (suggesting Intel is keeping SGX on servers)

Has Mullvad ever considered using SGX? Or future plans to use it? Only asking 'cause it's been touted as a great feature for VPN.

Been using Mullvad for years, generally happy with the experience. I've had the odd captcha pop up on random websites (including Google) now and then, but since a month or so, they have increased dramatically. Is there anything I can do?

I have tried multiple different VPN servers, but haven't found one that doesn't keep causing captchas.

Why is Mullvad Blocking bank apps? I noticed I can not login into my bank app, when I am connected with Mullvad through my home router. When I switch to an other VPN provider, the issue is resolved.

Hey everyone,

I was recently playing Valorant with VPN (usually I get 10-15 ping) and noticed some high & fluctuating ping, I ran a test on https://www.cloudping.info/ and found that whilst I'm getting expected ping on other providers, I get inconsistent results with Mullvad on on the AWS servers which coincidentally are the Valorant ones. I ran the test on another VPN and results were fine, so I believe this is a Mullvad issue. Anyone have any issues with this aswell? I know it's not a big issue but an issue is an issue at the end of the day!

Hey all.

I got Mullvad yesterday, but whenever I try to connect to a different server, it says "Network traffic might be leaking/Unable to Block all Network Traffic", and recommends that I disable firewalls.

However, even when I disable firewalls, it still won't allow me to log in.

At other times it gives me a slightly different error: "Unable to apply firewall rules".

I literally used Mullvad last month with no such issues, and I've used it quite a few times in the past. What is going on?

PS: Please note I am a complete noob when it comes to any kind of technical stuff regarding VPNs

EDIT: NEVER MIND. I just uninstalled Norton 360 (which had been installed automatically btw) and it fixed itself. It's all good now!

There are six servers in my country, three different providers. Which one do I choose? How do I know when to change it? Thank you.

Unable to install the latest app version (2025.7) on Win10 Pro. After downloading clicked 'Install Mullvad VPN.exe'. "Try again" with same result. See image. Anyone seen this before? Workaround/solution?

So my employer blocks tailscale but not mullvad. Is it possible somehow to connect to tailscale but wrap that connection in mullvad to avoid the block? I want to connect to my home network during breaks.

What's the best practice for joining public wifi that uses a captive portal? Having my VPN on seems to throw a wrench in the whole process and I inevitably start an endless loop of turning wifi on and off, the VPN on and off, and switching browsers to trick the portal into returning. Is the way around this really to start with the VPN off every time? That's fine on desktop, but sucks on mobile. In my experience, the VPN toggle in iOS Is unreliable and the VPN status icon isn't always visible in the Status Bar.

I know that Mullvad is not a streaming focus service, more like a privacy focused service. But while it can't unblock Disney Plus, for me ir sometimes work's on unblocking some content on Netflix. My question is should I enable DAiITA, Quantum resistance and Multihop or are these settings to easy for Netflix to detect?

I've recently changed over from Plex to Jellyfin due to my issues with the recent changes, I've set up remote access with DuckDNS basically according to this tutorial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEyhpuWeiTk

I have a small Windows 11 Pro server with an Intel i5 and a few HDD's hosting my video library to a couple family members.

It's been working fine for the past month as soon as I turn on my Mullvad VPN the Jellyfin server isn't accessible, I tried adding it as an exception under the Mullvad Split Tunneling exclusion list but it doesn't seem to fix the issue like how it fixed it for Plex.

Adding Jellyfin, Jellyfin.Windows.Tray, DuckDns, Caddy, and The non-sucking service manager didn't seem to do the trick either.

While I'm quite quite tech savvy I've been struggling to solve this issue on the same PC, I tried setting up Jellyfin in Docker to hopefully exclude Docker but that has been causing more problems then it has solved for me. I like running all these apps in a standard Windows OS as I can just leave it to run 24/7 as well as other tasks that are Windows compatible.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Does mullvad have a list that I can use to whitelist mullvad IP addresses? I tried the BGP ASN but it only gave me two /24s.

I am blocking all VPN providers, but I want to whitelist mullvad. I am using OPNsense and I would prefer an IP list so that I can create an alias for it.

I am using Usenet with Sonarr and Radarr but since last weekend whenever Mullvad is on, it blocks access to the Indexers. Which means I can't find or download anything. If I use a different VPN, I have no issue. It seems to only block the indexers because I can access anything else per normal when Mullvad is on. Does anyone else have the same issue?

Hello, I just downloaded Mullvad today, and it was connecting without issue at my friend's house. Now that I'm back at my place, it won't connect to any server. I am not sure what is causing the issue, and this is my first VPN, so my knowledge is limited. I included a screenshot, but if more context is required, I'm happy to provide it. Thank you for any input or suggestions.
