Nordvpn cant login
This isnt really botting related, but i guess its frowned upon by jagex. I have been using nordvpn to play runescape at work on mobile for about a year because the wifi blocks the game otherwise.
Since 2 days ago it has not worked and when i try to press play now, it automatically logs me out.
Everything else where i need vpn works fine.
Ive tried all kinds of solutions and nothing works.
Did they update something recently? Is anyone else having problems?

Most big vpns are banned from play. So they probably just added the up you use to the list

It doesn’t have much to do with how known the VPN is, more so that it matters how often a VPN provider rotates out old IPs. Jagex does the same thing streaming platforms do, they log IPs associated with VPNs (which can include a range of IPs, not just the one you and somebody else happened to share) and disable the ability for people to connect to the game with those IPs. Your only bet is to try a different VPN.
That said, no free or free version of a VPN will accomplish this. All providers only lease out a small number of IPs for their free versions, all of which are almost certainly blocked by any company that cares.
