VPN Into Mainland China

[ethand320]

Hi all,

I've been vetting a few providers, but are there any that have 'reasonably' consistent VPN servers INSIDE mainland China?

What do you mean? Nordvpn is always working everywhere in the world, give it a try.

Lived in Nanjing for a year, Express never let me down even once. It's a bit expensive, though.

Nord doesn't have any servers inside mainland china. WOrks great if you live in China -> Out somewhere.

I am trying to go from US -> Mainland China

The reason is to access some internal chinese sites that can't be reached from the US

I don't think you'll find VPNs with servers inside China because of China's (lack) of privacy laws.

If you need a connection with a VPN server inside China, you can get an Alibaba cloud server (VPS) and install OpenVPN on it. In this way, you'll create your own VPN server.

Not a good choice to use the mainland Chinese VPN. Try a Hong Kong VPN.

Have a look at UltraSurf. Was created with Chinese folk in mind IIRC.

I visited China many times, stayed there for a long time.

Last time I visited (March 2020) ExpressVPN didn't work at all in China. Nordvpn didn't work too. I used "Wannaflix". They are even cheaper and work much better. Faster and more reliable.

HK VPNs are going to be irrelevant soon......

Plenty of proxy providers have Chinese IPs. IMHO it's your best choice, but they will be more expensive than a VPN, especially if you're looking for residential proxies.
