thanks

top vpn providers:
banana vpn

relakks

i know of 2 free vpn providers.

www.alonweb.com

i have used both, ultravpn is better and is ideal for viewing and posting to the forum.

if you only need for infrequent use, the free services are more than adequate.

never had a problem connecting inside china anywhere and the speed is fine.

Sorry to interrupt the current discussions with this inane question regarding arrival in China.

Are the health authorities still boarding the planes and taking temperatures prior to letting passengers off the plane?

i arrived in Beijing two week ago from Canada. now you just fill a health form which someone will check after you get off the plane. After landing I was in the taxi about 35 minutes later with immigration and luggage pick up as well as this health form control.

[Iandavid2212]

Sometimes. Flights from Hong Kong are not usually boarded, flights from Europe and USA seem to be done at random.

Courtyard Marriott Pudong does block ISG and some other "porn" related websiteUsed a proxy to bypass but it sucks when one opens multiple pages as not always they get through the proxi link.

Agreed,

Most of my time is spent in Shanghai at the major western hotels and I have to agree most are blocked.

Always have a VPN up your sleeve.

In BJ on Saturday. I'll let you know if I find different.

Just my own experience, but when I travel in China I usually stay in western branded hotels (Hilton, Westin, Ramada, etc.) and I have never been blocked. When trying to access through ADSL at a private residence however, I have never been successful without VPN.
First thing I do when I check into a hotel in a new city is log on to ISG and find the goings-on in the area. I have had success in hotels in at least 20 cities large and small.
YMMV

Not sure when Matsu69 last visited China, but I can confirm that even the western branded hotels now block ISG (in addition to Facebook, ect).

I agree with Sammy, some western brand hotels seem to have their own VPN but not even close to the majority.

Fellow mongers,

I will be travelling in China shortly and by browsing through the China forums, I have been slightly confused. Is the site available to view/browse when you are in China, or is it banned?

Please enlight me otherwise, I will have to take notes urgently

The forum is blocked in mainland China. I suggest you take notes at home and install a VPN service. I suggest www.ultravpn.fr or www.alonweb.com. They will allow you to view any site from inside China.

You can also use a paid VPN service and in some cases/cities certain proxy servers will work.

I've heard some people have success with FREEGATE but it does not work for me. At least look it up.

In addition to ISG being blocked, many common sites are also blocked like facebook, tagged (sometimes), twitter, youtube etc.

My best recommendation to you however is that you avoid P4P in China at the moment, it may be a very risky and difficult proposition at this time. Maybe after the October holidays it will be better but I really feel the good times in China are behind us. Go to Thailand or Philippines for better enjoyment, cost effectiveness, culture and a family friendly P4P atmosphere.

First of all, my apologies to the writer of the above PMS to me for C+P it here, but this PMS is just one of quite a few stating similar requests.

The writer in this case has ZERO posts and most of those who PMS'd me with similar requests are also usually single digit newbie posters.


SEAJ

I would be suspicious to see someone at his one digit posts sending PM's, meaning he has registered and paid. 20 is of course affordable to play around for one year, but one should first have a look and experiment the place before paying, then subscribe and bet his money.
This is all possible on ISG. No need to pay to post, just pay to PM and few other extras.
So to cut th estory short, we have somebody paying 20$, not having RTFF and sending PM's
Of course to whom? to somebody with a hugfe history in number of posts = allegedely a personality = one to target as "he knows".
I do not want to generalize this elaboration, sure, but...something smells and it is not a nice wet pussy!
