I run AlgoVPN on my own server at home, school, public Wi-Fi, etc. It works perfectly on my PC, iOS, and Android devices. But once I connect to the school network, it fails completely. I suspect the school is blocking certain games because they use cellular connections. If anyone has suggestions on bypassing this issue, especially using free VPNs, would be really helpful.

You attend school to gain knowledge and understanding, not for entertainment.

I don’t rely on the VPN for harmful purposes; I use it to safeguard myself and avoid the school from accessing all data related to my device. If my intent was merely for gaming, I’d opt for a regular data connection instead.

Avoid using the school's Wi-Fi if possible. Mobile data is affordable and fast (though my university connection uses the Gigabit Ethernet on my laptop, which drains its 160Mb speed from 4G on my phone).

All my information comes from my phone, but I prefer my laptop for studying at school.

Find a 4G modem for your laptop. You already have one that supports HSPA+ (only 3G), or consider setting up a mobile hotspot via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or a USB connection.

I prefer not to purchase a network card; instead, I need this VPN to function properly.

It really depends on the configuration of your school's firewall.
