Today I will test NordVPN in Windows 10 for wall climbing in mainland China. NordVPN has not recovered its APP direct connection since it was last restored and then strongly blocked again after 24 hours, and so far its APP direct connection wall climbing has not been restored either. But as an old VPN, it is always possible to help Chinese users to go through the wall by its manual configuration. The purpose of this test is to verify its availability and the real situation of the manual wall server currently provided by NordVPN to make wall connections in China. I hope this test will bring some reference significance to the readers.

- NordVPN Win10 OpenVPNGUI in China-20201109 - Today I'm going to test NordVPN's manual configuration of OpenVPN Gui again on Windows 10 devices. First of all, I checked the official OpenVPN Gui server configuration file for Win10, which is unchanged from the previous test (the server names are the same), so I will test it directly on the last configured file. There are 12 servers in total, 2 in Canada, 3 in Japan, 3 in Singapore, and 4 in the US. Also, since I have multiple VPNs installed in my Win10, I've rebooted that device before testing and made sure to enable other VPNs after the reboot.Hopefully this test will be a reference for you in your daily use!

I'm concerned about the performance of today's test, but the test remains, and tells you the most realistic picture, whether the results are good or bad. This is the core gist of this blog! I hope this test is informative and useful to you...
- NordVPN Win10 manual in China Reviews-20201016 - Today I ran a test of the latest OpenVPN Gui configuration server relative to the official NordVPN announcement.

Summary: Today’s wall test of NordVPN in Windows 10 using OpenVPN GUI manually configured connection to mainland China, a total of 14 servers were tested, 2 of which were not successfully connected. Most of the servers have very good speed, YouTube speed can reach more than 10,000. In addition, for the two unsuccessful servers, I suggest that you do not delete them first, after a period of time may be connected successfully may not be.
