"Connection failed" while connecting to DroidVPN servers.

Posted on July 4, 2012 @ 9:48 am

Problem: I am unable to connect to DroidVPN and I am getting the following logs.
Connected to UDP Port: 53
Sending connection request...
Authenticating...
Connection timeout!
Authentication failed!


Solutions: We have some reports that some ISPs, WiFi hotspots and possibly your router is blocking repeated DNS requests.

By default DroidVPN will try to connect to UDP port 53 which is primarily used for DNS resolutions. The first UDP packet that is sent by DroidVPN to our server arrives successfully but the succeeding packets are somewhat being blocked.

To resolve this you need to change your port to other common ports that is normally open like port 9200 or 137.

If that did'nt work you can just change your Protocol to ICMP or TCP.
