Make sure none of your browsers are running when u connect the VPN. Once you are connected open a browser. Try going to www.yahoo.com. If you are connected to a VPN in a foreign country it will show you the U.S. version and the foreign version. This will let u know it's all good. Originally Posted by RonPaul2008

BTW, are u using the VPN program to connect? Does it turn green and tell you that you have successfully connected?

I've tried 3 different browsers (2 with no add ons). Running win xp sp3.

Yes, the black swirly icon in my task bar. It says it's connected, that works fine and it does change my IP. Originally Posted by MUHerd37

Do you by any chance use Firefox? Thats what I use. Go to yahoo.com while connected to London. Do u get both the U.S. and British version?

I already know that it works in that it changes my IP guys. I verified that right away. I was able to create a pinny account.
But when I try ot log in it just gos to a blank white page everytime...doesnt matter which browser and doesn't matter if I reimaged why whole computer. Wish I had another computer around to test this on.
MUherd, do you use a firewall besides windows? I don't have anything but the windows firewall.
-

Have you tried the mobile site? I don't mean using a mobile device. I mean keeping the VPN on and going to the mobile site URL via your standard desktop web browser.
-
11-21-12 03:11 PM #47
Actually in firefox I can't even get it to resolve to pinny's website now.
-
11-21-12 03:13 PM #48
I have a firewall with avast. The white page sounds more like a browser problem or something. Not a VPN problem. U have an iPad, iPhone, or laptop u can try with? Originally Posted by RonPaul2008

Then I gotta set up another pinny account on my phone...fun. I'll try it, but it's really only good for informational purposes at this point. Phone is much too small to be useful to me with pinny. Originally Posted by MUHerd37

Although, problem is i've probably got pinny cookies on my phone and I have no idea what i'm doing in my phone's browser with stuff like that.

There are several free browsers for your phone you can use.
-

I guess I could tryfirefox for android. Sure it is better then the crap on my phone. Originally Posted by MUHerd37

By the way, are you using the OpenVPN 256 Bit?
-
11-21-12 07:08 PM #57
Protocol I use is L2TP/IPSec
-
11-21-12 09:39 PM #58
Have not tried that one. Only the open and the pptp. Originally Posted by MUHerd37

I'll be sure to try the L2TP/IPSec. Why did you pick that one?
-
11-22-12 02:51 AM #59
Hallelujah! It worked on the tablet. Scratching my head as to why it isn't working on my xp machine no matter what browser I use, would like to get it working on there so I don't have to rush out and get a new laptop or operating system.

I didn't want to pay the extra to get OpenVPN. I think there must be an issue from where you went to Pinnacle before. Originally Posted by RonPaul2008

By the way you could try another browser you haven't used before on ur pc. Try opera or something.
-

I did that right off the bat with both opera and IE, I normally use firefox. It happens in all 3. Originally Posted by MUHerd37

some companies use Flash cookies to ID u and those are NOT cleaned when you delete ur cache and cookies from Firefox/IE/Chrome/etc.
Try this freebie and I think you'll have postive results:

I know all about flash cookies. I have the better privacy add-on. Plus, I reimaged my computer so there were definitely no cookies or flash cookies. Originally Posted by NobodyUKnow

Just got it working on my xp machine. Tried pptn like worked on the tablet. Maybe only the pptn will work on here...who knows.
Too bad I didn't try all 3 on here originally. I can even use my old account, doesn't matter that it's a u.s. account.
-

Is there a way to determine all of pinnacle's IP addresses? I think it's possible to route only certain IP's over the VPN and not others. This way the connection to everything but pinnacle won't be slowed, it could be in the same browser, and the other websites I am connected to won't see me as being somewhere different then my account says.

Got the OpenVPN working in XP now too. Faster and more secure.
The person on live help only told me about the desktop app and that didn't work right, but there were directions for another method and that one worked.Last edited by RonPaul2008; 11-23-12 at 12:13 AM.
