Proton Virtual VPN servers are blocked by Battelmetrics and Cloudflare
Hi everyone,
I’ve been using Proton VPN for a while now and wanted to use it to research which countries don't have any Arma Reforger servers, or at least which ones are closest to the country in question using the available VPN server.
To do this, I’m using the Battlemetrics website, which relies solely on the IP address to determine the requester's location, in order to display the distance from my own IP or the VPN server to the nearest Arma Reforger server. Therefore, using a VPN is the only way for me to achieve this.
Unfortunately, this isn't working because Battlemetrics blocks these virtual server locations (botnet detection; for example, the Philippines VPN server is hosted in Singapore). So, I wanted to ask if you could please test this for me to see if it’s failing for you too.
I’ve already tried it on my Samsung and via the desktop browser extension, I don’t use the PC programme. It doesn’t work via the Danish or Egyptian servers either. The German, Austrian and US servers work.
Support claims it works on their end, but unfortunately, it currently doesn't work for me. I’m completely at a loss; I’ve tried everything I can think of. Personally, I'm from Germany. Thanks a lot, everyone.
