Hi everyone,

I’ve been experiencing connection issues with Mullvad VPN for the past 1-2 years and could use some advice.

I use OpenVPN on UDP because it generally works well for me. However, when I switch to TCP on the same server, the connection either reconnects every 5-10 minutes or fails to connect at all on both ports 80 and 5001. I encounter a similar problem with WireGuard—UDP doesn’t work for me at all. When I switch WireGuard to TCP, it behaves like OpenVPN on TCP, frequently reconnecting or failing to connect.

For context, I live in a country with censorship.

Any suggestions on how to resolve these issues?
