I’m currently in Guangzhou, and I installed ExpressVPN on my phone while I was still in Canada. Problem is i’m always having trouble with the connection. I tried downloading LetsVPN, but it’s not working. Does anyone know of a good VPN that I can use while i’m here in China? Thanks a lot.
express doesn’t work in china since 2021/22. astrill is your best bet
When I arrived to Beijing airport I bought a Chinese sim card right away, and the service ladies even installed a VPN to my phone as the part of the deal - AnyConnect VPN.
It worked really well most of the time - keep in mind there isn’t a VPN that works 100% anytime anywhere in China - but from my experience, I can definitely recommend this one.
To download anything that’s blocked, use Tor browser.
And since you’re close to HK, come on down, download, and go back.
Do you have android? If so, just get someone you know who has a vpn to send you the APK. It’s easy on android, but a little more of a pain to sideload on apple.
I’ll also go to guanzhou, does NordVpn works there?
That’s weird , I’m using LetsVPN right now in China . I’m not using a local sim , using hotel wifi and it’s working pretty good and is relatively cheap too . I got a Nomad esim which I’m using while I’m not on wifi so it’s working out well .
LetsVPN was perfect last July and I’ve heard quite a few using it… are you having a v problem signing up/purchasing? Downloading? Using?
it doesn’t. nord sucks ass. astrill or use esim
I’m on pixel 8 pro , in Yunnan region, my letsvpn is set to auto region and it is showing connected to japan
Hi, did you download/purchase letsvpn before travelling to China or when you arrived in China?
Yeah. We had some VPNs prepared before coming to China, but ended up not using them at all because of how well Anyconnect worked.
I purchased it after reaching actually. Worked for me . But maybe better to have it before you go
