Getting Kicked for VPN
-
Almost 2 years playing Zombies and Multiplayer without problems, but a few weeks ago I changed residence and since then I haven't been able to enter any servers with VPN protection.
It should be noted that I'm not using any type of VPN.
I have already tried:
- Turning off my router 15 minutes.
- Setting a Static IP Address for my PC.
- Changing the LAN and WAN IP Address.
- Changing router and Internet provider.
- Switching from Wi-Fi to Ethernet cable.
- Creating a new account.
I really have no plans to go server by server clarifying that I'm not using VPN and I don't want to reset/format my PC 'til I know there're no more options to me.

Most servers use a server manager like IW4MAdmin which comes with a VPN detection plugin
It can falsely flag you if your IP looks like a VPN (for various reasons)The only ways to get whitelisted to my knowledge are
- Contacting server owners one by one (not what you want)
- Contacting the person who made the IP check API to get whitelisted on Twitter or via e-mail

Fixed. I contacted Luigi (xDefcon) and although there was no response via E-mail, I was able to clarify things through Telegram and I can now enter the protected servers normally.
I also tried to communicate with the mods of some servers and although they could make the exception and whitelist me, with each update of IW4M-Admin this list is reset and having to repeat that process represented extra work for those who manage the servers.
