top4718 Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I've used NordVPN for years without any issues but over the last few weeks it's constantly logging out when I first switch the laptop on then becoming nigh on impossible to log back in, has anyone else had similar issues?

Nothing you'll ever need @pattricia - it is a way of either connecting to a remote network - i.e. your works, if you are remote working, or 'hiding' your actual IP address, but the first example is its usual purpose.

True enough, I did edit my first word as you quoted mind. Probably not wrong in this instance though given the OP... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need it for some remote working first thing tomorrow as I have to be on the road fairly early, I don't want (or have time) to be spending half and hour trying to log in.

alchresearch Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Its also to allow you access to some websites that Virgin Media block because of "court orders" - although its odd that other providers don't block them https://www.virginmedia.com/help/list-of-court-orders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghozer Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Other providers do, I know PlusNet block some (Though not as many as VM) - VM do seem to be the quickest to react to new URL's etc... Recently moved to Gbit FTTP with City Fiber, and nothing's blocked.... so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
