VPN Blocked by my wifi connection

Hello, 
I use a VPN connection (with OpenVPN) provided by my University. Unfortunately, this get blocked by my TalkTalk router. I can connect but the speed is incredibly low. The same problem is not there when I use other WiFi networks. 

Can you help?

Morning,

 

I'm sorry for the delay. The line is showing in sync and connected. Have you now been able to connect ok since your last post?

 

Thanks

Hello,

I switched off the router for more than 30 minutes and now the wifi itself does not work. Could you please fix this asap?

OK, could you switch your router off and leave it off for at least 30 minutes then switch back on and retest. Please let us know how you get on


Thanks

I am not sure what you mean here exactly, it isn't blocked if it is working, albeit slowly?
