VPN in "Connecting ... " mode

I'm in the UK. I mentioned this in an earlier comment (2nd in the thread). I only restated it because a mod said, to paraphrase 'Well it works for me.'
There are so many reports of a now 4 day old fault with the inbuilt VPN on Opera Mobile that it is making Opera devs look incompetent when forum mods still say 'It works for us so it must be a problem on your side.'

@leocg No I didn't try with other ISPs I'm using TCI and MCI services
Opera VPN will connect by 1.1.1.1
This video can prove Opera VPNs blocked in Iran (definitely by Islamic regime) if still it is working on other ISPs they will close very soon internet.ir has page asked the users report all VPNs and proxies!, etc -

@leocg Opera VPN on desktop works fine. Opera VPN on mobile over the same ISP does not work and has not worked even though the data cache has been cleared, the browser has been uninstalled then reinstalled and the device restarted multiple times.
This started for me 4 or 5 days ago, as per with others with the same issue. I am in the UK, not Iran, not UAE and not China etc.. but the UK. My ISP is Virgin Media.
I originally thought the issue might have been caused by my adjusting the time on my tablet by setting it forward for game cheating purposes. Evidently this was an erroneous thought.
I believe the issue is with the VPN.

Unfortunately, my Opera Browser VPN on Debian 10 has same mobile version(Android) problem.
By the way I hope this issue will be fix as soon as possible.
God bless us -

@leocg Ah, yes, exactly our point: it is an Opera issue not a device issue nor necessarily an ISP issue (except maybe in Iran) but an issue local to certain regions. When you said localised we assumed you meant local to our devices and not local to our regions.
Thanks leocg. I hope Opera is able to resolve this one soon. As browsers go, Opera is my favourite for desktop and mobile/tablet.
Do Opera Mobile and Opera Desktop use different VPN servers?

I had a test on mobile network with Opera Mobile (latest version) and as I realized the problem is from Opera side (proxies or bypassing servers) not client side or regional! Opera VPN would not connect neither using VPN app or without VPN app (here I am using ExpressVPN connecting to German server then open Opera Mobile but there is problem to connect to Opera VPN servers! By disabling Opera VPN, I can reach YouTube and other sites that are censored here in Iran...). I don't think the problem be regional specifically about Iran!
I have "VPN is temporarily..." error about one week now on Desktop and Mobile with Opera... -

I think the moderator is right, it's a limited free plan. I also have the same problem but after reinstalling, it's working as well as before. there are many people on facebook, who have the same problem...

@mario99g What countries (regions) have that problem? Why they just don't say that free plan has limitation now (Opera team)?! I can connect through FF (firefox) VPN extension and also with Ex...VPN, but nothing work in Opera VPN!
