This is canada btw

So here is the thing, I have tried installing first ****vpn, then ****vpn and then openvpn connecting to ****vpn, but they refuse to connect and tell me they time out. It is not the firewall as I disabled it. (God knows why , but I happen to actually have admin access on my office PC, just because). So i tried to get my (private) cell phone, connect it to the work WIFI network (same network…
