Same wifi network. On my laptop I can access the website, no issues without VPN. On my phone, there’s just no way unless I activate my VPN.
I tried searching about it but the closest results I found say it’s an ISP issue, some apparently block the Archive. If that was the case then I’d need VPN for both devices, right? So it’s got to be another reason, yes?
I didn’t find anyone saying they experience the same as I am, I suppose because I suck at searching I guess.
If it is the DNS, I’d say OP should change DNS on their phone to point to something else. I can (and do) on iPhone. I’d be shocked if Android couldn’t. Easier than leaving your VPN on all the time. Although there are benefits to leaving VPN on too. Kind of a personal choice for the most part.
I’ll look into it. I’m not even sure why they’re different or if I’ve changed the settings in the past- but it would explain the behavior. Thanks for the answers :)
