NordVPN won’t connect to any server on my device, how can I troubleshoot it?

If NordVPN won’t connect to any server, first check that your internet works without the VPN and restart both your device and the NordVPN app, as temporary network or DNS issues often block connections.

Make sure the app and your operating system are fully updated, since outdated versions can fail after backend changes.

Next, switch the VPN protocol to NordLynx in settings, which is usually the most stable option across networks.

Disable battery saver, data saver, firewall, or always-on VPN features temporarily, as these can prevent the tunnel from establishing.

If it still fails, try connecting on a different network such as mobile data or another Wi-Fi to rule out ISP or router restrictions.
