1. Using a database of European or American proxy servers in the program settings
IP lists that can be used to bypass blocking are publicly available. We just need to enter the work address in the application settings.
- enter the settings section
- find the item Additional settings(at the end of the list). In Connection method, click on the words “default (TCP)”.
- select "TCP over socks5"
- In the Host field, insert a foreign IP address, enter the Port (also from the data on the site).
- activate the option “Via IPv6 (if possible)”.
Websites with information about foreign proxy addresses:
Please note that a significant proportion of the addresses listed on the sites do not work. In this case, try new Host-Port bindings until you find a functioning proxy. You will immediately know about this, as the application will load your interface and contacts.
2. Paid VPN services
Relevant for those who don’t mind paying from 1,000 to 10,000 rubles. per month for unhindered and confidential access to your favorite sites and applications. We wrote about that earlier.
3. Browser version of the Telegram application
In this case, we can use any of the usual methods of bypassing site blocking (TOR, anonymizer, VPN, plugin). The easiest way seems to be to use the FriGate browser extension. It is free and the most versatile. After activating it in your browser, go to the web version of the Telegram service (web.telegram.org) and log in to your account. When, if the plugin did not connect a proxy automatically, go to its settings (in the Add-ons / Extensions section of your browser) and add the site domain to your own list.
How to log into Telegram from an Android and IOS phone
Most likely, the application will be deleted from the Russian segment Google Play and AppStore directly April 4, 2018 To install the program on your phone, you can:
A) change your country of residence in your account settings and install the application through a foreign store;
b) for devices running the Android system: download the executable APK file from the Internet (directly from your phone, or by sending it to your smartphone from your computer). Use only official programs, since tomorrow dozens of viruses posing as Telegram will appear.
For those, for whom the above recommendations did not apply, we can offer a simpler solution: switch to programs approved by government agencies (WhatsApp, Viber).
Everyone has the right to privacy of correspondence and telephone conversations, but for many, comfort is much more important.
Fortunately, for now we all have the opportunity to make this choice on our own.
Greetings!
Sooner or later this had to happen - access to Telegram servers was blocked in the territory Russian Federation and now the messenger has stopped connecting and performing its function - safe communication between people.
Discuss these actions by the authorities in this material we will not. We will take up a more important task, namely, restoring the functionality of the popular messenger, which has become almost the last bastion of freedom in this world of double standards, where the privacy of private correspondence granted to citizens by the constitution has ceased to be valued!
Instructions for restoring the functionality of the Telegram messenger
Regardless of which version of the messenger you use - computer or smartphone, you can restore functionality in all cases. And proxy servers will help us with this.
A proxy server is an intermediate server that acts as an intermediary between you and the site or server to which you need to connect. Proxies are used to increase confidentiality, eliminate problems with accessing sites to which access is limited for one reason or another, etc.
The address of any proxy consists of the IP address of the remote server that is the proxy and the port it uses. These addresses are provided both free and paid. Naturally, the latter will be more stable in operation, but for the sake of objectivity it is worth noting that paid proxies are not a guarantee of an uninterrupted connection.
This means that most likely, from time to time you will have to enter another proxy server address, due to the fact that the previous one is no longer functioning.
Constantly updated lists of the addresses themselves can be found on special websites, here are just a few of them:
https://telegram.veesecurity.com/
http://spys.one/
https://hidemy.name/ru/proxy-list/
https://sockslist.net/list/proxy-socks-5-list/
http://proxyformymom.opentg.us/
http://tgproxy.me/
The lists include Various types free proxies, we are specifically interested in those that support Socks 5, located mainly in Europe and the USA.
Having selected a proxy address from the list, you must enter it into the settings of the Telegram messenger. Let's take a closer look at this process.
In the Telegram application for smartphones, this is done in Settings -> Traffic and storage -> Proxy settings.
Turn it on there Connect via proxy. In after Host enter the IP address of the proxy, and in the next field under the name Port enter it accordingly.
Login and password must be entered only if this is explicitly specified for a specific proxy address.
In the Telegram application for a computer, entering a proxy is carried out in a similar way - Settings -> Connection method. By default, TCP is selected there.
If you click on this item, a window will open with the connection method - select an option TCP over socks 5 and just below enter the address and port of the proxy server.
If the connection does not occur, then it makes sense to enter another proxy address.
We return functionality to Telegram messenger using VPN
You can also use free VPNs decisions. They perform a similar function, helping to solve the Telegram connection problem effectively.
The following solutions exist for smartphones and tablets on Android and iOS: Turbo VPN, Betternet VPN, VyprVPN, CyberGhost, Onavo Protect, ProtonVPN
You can read more about some of them in.
Open the Google Play client (or App Store on iOS), enter the name of the application, read about it. After reviewing the functionality, reading reviews about each application from the list, install the one you like, thereby restoring the functionality of the Telegram messenger.
Naturally, you can also organize on a computer VPN connection, the free ones include the following:
FreeOpenVPN – https://www.freeopenvpn.org/
Hola VPN – http://holavpn.ru/index.html
TunnelBear – https://www.tunnelbear.com/
These methods will allow you to quickly restore the functionality of the Telegram messenger. Soon other solutions will be presented, specially tailored for Telegram - installed and configured without unnecessary searches for proxy addresses and other things, after all, this messenger is very popular and the fight against it will only give impetus to the creation of solutions that will allow it to continue to work unhindered , and which can be used by all users without much difficulty and waste of time.

Sooner or later, failures occur in the operation of any equipment or software. The reasons may be different, but I would like to know how to fix them. If you are a user of the Telegram messenger, then it may be useful to know why it is not working.
Telegram doesn't work - looking for the reason
First of all, check your device. The program has stopped working under Android versions 2.2, 2.3 and 3.0. Go to the settings of your smartphone or tablet and look at the software version.
Also, telegram does not work on desktop if you have installed the wrong version. For example, a special option must be used. If you made a mistake when choosing, go to the official website and.
What's wrong with Telegram today, why isn't it working on 03/07/2020?
If you were currently using the Telegram messenger without any problems and suddenly it stopped working and functioning normally, you need to look for the reason in the connection or settings:
Most often, if the connection is normal and you are connected to the Internet, rebooting the device helps. If the chat still does not start, you need to reinstall the program to a more recent or suitable version. And be careful with the settings of both the software and the device.
Blocking by competent authorities
Some messengers that refused to transfer personal data of users at the request of Russian special services have already been blocked. For example, Linkedin. Telegram has not yet been blocked, but if the creators do not comply with the “Yarovaya Law,” then it will not escape this fate.
You can bypass messenger blocking with some special knowledge:
- VPN programs. They allow you to substitute your IP address in such a way that the network sees you as a resident of a country in which the program is not prohibited. Such software is easy to download, but it needs to be configured.
- Browsers with built-in VPN. This is the same thing, but the service is already integrated into your browser.
- Proxy server. Configured allows you to access the network through a remote server. Requires configuration.
- TOR and other networks. Created specifically to ensure user anonymity. The network structure is so complex that it is almost impossible to track the entry address. For mobile applications the same methods are used.
Information on how to bypass the blocking
With the introduction of support for the SOCKS5 proxy protocol into the application, it became possible to configure a proxy connection directly from the messenger.
We have prepared for you detailed instructions and lists free servers. Plus links to the most popular applications for creating VPN access on smartphones.
