My options for internet connectivity are very limited. I was wondering if I could go to a library or coffee shop or wherever has a good connection and do all my downloading remotely, or if I will run into problems/restrictions.

I’m thinking they may not allow VPN’s or something like that?

    Its advised to use a vpn on public wifis, even if youre not torrenting. Also you could sign up for a trial and go for it to see if there are restrictions.

    If they are blocking vpns you could use one that uses http or https ports, those are pratically unblockable.

    • If most vpn’s are blocked, you could try a proxy server but the reliablity and privacy of them can be questionable.

      There is also DNS tunneling, while much harder it does work ok.
