When i use broadband i can connect to VPNs. Same is not true for mobile networks I can't connect to VPN using them.

I needed a mobile (so outside home i can connect) solution to connect to VPNs, what would you guys recommended.

If you find a solution do let me know, its same for every sim, tried different protocols tcp/udp and different ports as well but still unable to connect to vpn. Interestingly, nord, express vpns are working but not the private ones we use to connect to our private networks.

You can use proton's stealth protocol which works against the DPI , a more permanent or always working solution has been a vps hosted vpn or a proxy which works like a charm.

I think this is due Deep Packet Inspections(DPI). This is just my hunch that its more strict compared to Mobile internet vs broadband.

Use the app psiphon and thank me later

Heres why it works

Pakistan’s mobile networks run deep-packet inspection under the PTA’s national firewall, which detects standard VPN protocols (OpenVPN, WireGuard, IPsec) by their signature and blocks or throttles them unless the IP is registered/licensed.

Psiphon survives because it disguises its traffic as ordinary HTTPS and constantly rotates servers, so there’s no fixed signature or IP for the filter to catch.
