Question Why is my Tor-Over-VPN Setup Not Working?

[tomredcloud]

I upgraded to Tails 4.24 and it loads fine. But when connecting to Tor using the prompt (with or without bridges), it does not connect. It says my network is blocking the connection. I'm using a VPN router with custom firmware via Express VPN. I'm able to connect to the internet using the unsafe browser, so I know I'm getting a signal. Just Tor won't connect.

Also, any site in unsafe browser works EXCEPT the bridges.torproject.org site. It's like it's blocked or something. Not sure if that relates to the Tor connection issues at all.

Is it an Express VPN problem, a Tails problem or some other problem?

Likely not working because somewhere along the way your activities appear suspicious in some manner.

That may or may not be true but there is no way to really know from this side of things.

In any case, Forum rules prohibit assistance with bypassing security measures or otherwise working around safeguards that have been put into place by any given website.

You must contact the "bridges" site in question for assistance.

Closing thread accordingly.
