Hi I am an online poker player. The offshore sites have blocked U.S ip addresses and I am trying to set up a vpn service that would be undetectable to the pokersites so I can still play. I currently am using windows 7 and have paid for a service that gives me an static ip and dedicated server coming from the U.K. However I still have concerns about detection avoidance especially concerning DISCONNECTION protection,port security and FRDNS consistency, first level DNS registration and i.p address association security. I have done some research but would really appreciate if someone could give me some instructions on how to set up this up without the possibility of the poker sites detecting my vpn. Thank you.If you are doing a vpn to some server in the UK then I see no REAL concern for being detected. You are literally getting on the network that your UK provider is allowing you. From then on, any further connection to websites is literally coming from their network, not yours.

For example, when I vpn to my work from home, my internet access (browser) doesn't work anymore. I can browse computers at my work's connection. I can remote into my pc at work & from there I do any browsing of the internet that I need to. So I'm literally using my pc at work from home. Any connection I make to websites is coming from my work, not my home. The ip any websites see is from my work, not my home ip. Get it? They can't TELL I'm using vpn. All they can tell is that my connection to their site is coming from my work place. Hey thx for the reply. I am using my computer from here in the United States so im not logging into a computer over there unless UR REFERRING to the server over there. Also I am concerned about when the vpn drops the connection my original home connection reconnecting and picking it up. Any thoughts on this thx?Are you saying that when your vpn connection cuts out you stay connected to the poker site through your own internet connection?
It is my understanding that it isn't illegal to go to those poker sites - it is only illegal to transfer money to and from there. So you should be fine if your own internet connection keeps you connected.
What you should be concerned about is how you are transferring the money in and out. If you are transferring it directly from an American bank account or credit card then the government could know about it. If it is going through an intermediary or you are using an offshore account then you should be safe.
