Solutions for hanging at connecting

[Cody]

If you are hanging at connection open C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts with administrator notepad and add

185.11.145.254 octowow.st

This should fix the issue for now.

That didn't work for me but I have just removed all changes to the hosts file and tried connecting via Proton's free vpn and that is working right now, for me.

Ping is 135 (usually roughly 70 to 140 ish.)

EDIT: The problem I had was hanging at "Success".

2nd EDIT: Still working after server restart - no changes to anything just using the vpn.
