Let's remember what happened. Telegram refused to provide Roskomnadzor with keys to decrypt messages. Pavel Durov, the creator of the messenger, refused to open the door to user correspondence for the FSB, and after that the Tagansky court decided to block Telegram. On April 16 last year, the blocking of providers began. As the cyber war progressed, millions of websites and companies were affected. Several million IP addresses were blocked, including those belonging to Amazon and Google. But Telegram works and resists.

While in There was an active discussion of news on the network, and it became increasingly difficult to use the service. Many don't could go to Telegram, but Fortunately, instructions for bypass the blocking. When with this more or less sorted it out, the problem became less- now, no Only certain channels work or there are specific problems with sending messages. The following ways will allow you to stay in Telegram and receive news from favorite channels, even if the application is not will be available in App Store And Google Play. A few simple manipulations- and you you can quickly return to favorite messenger.

How to bypass telegram blocking on PC

There is also one free service Vee Security , which provides settings for proxy servers.

Well, if the issue of using Telegram is not fundamental for you, you can find good alternative among other messengers.

Despite the fact that in the territory Russian Federation the popular Telegram messenger was banned by Roskomnadzor, this does not stop users from continuing to work with it. After all, it has a number of features that are not found in other popular instant messengers (Viber or WhatsApp, for example).

Even when it comes to transferring media files, Telegram gives everyone a head start, because only through it (I’m now comparing it with popular instant messengers!) can you transfer videos in the original size, of any duration in the original resolution. Telegram also has such a feature as creating your own channel. Channels allow you to publish posts on a topic specified by your channel, gain subscribers (because public channels are easy to find through a telegram search) and ultimately make money from it!

About creating a channel in telegram (via mobile app) was told

In this article I will tell you how to install Telegram and run it on your computer, since problems may arise with this. Why on a computer? Yes, because it’s more convenient to use it there, as a rule, especially when working with channels :)

After this messenger was blocked in the Russian Federation, users should have had problems accessing this application and the Telegram website itself. But in fact, not everyone notices problems; for some users, Telegram worked without the need to bypass the protection, and continues to work. But problems with access to the site have been observed and continue to exist to this day throughout the Russian Federation, and therefore, in order to download Telegram from the official site, you need to bypass the protection.

Download, install and Telegram messenger on PC

We will download Telegram from the official website. But if you work in the Russian Federation, then the site will not open for you due to blocking by Roskomnadzor. You can bypass the blocking different ways, for example, using a proxy server or VPN access. Convenient way bypassing the blocking is described (with VPN help access via the Windscribe service).

On the page that opens, go down a little and click on the link “Telegram for PC/Mac/Linux”.

On the next page, click “Get Telegram for Windows” and the download will begin installation file on computer.

This is a full version for computer. We will consider this one. There is also a portable version, which differs in that it does not need to be installed on your computer. But such versions are not always convenient; they do not always have a complete set of settings. If you want, you can download and try to use it.

After downloading the file, try turning off your VPN and continue working without it. It should work. If Telegram does not start and gives a connection error, then just start the VPN again.

Open the downloaded file to begin the installation. The file name will be “tsetup.1.3.10.exe”.

There is no need to change anything in the first 3 installation windows. Just click "OK" and "Next". There you select the language, installation folder and folder in the start menu, which are best left standard.

Next, in the next window, check the box “Create an icon on the desktop” if it was initially disabled and click “Next”. This is so that they can launch Telegram from the desktop, and not look elsewhere. If anything happens, you can always remove the icon.

In the penultimate window, click “Install”.

After installation is complete, check the “Launch Telegram” option and click “Finish”.

The installation is complete and Telegram should launch automatically.

If this does not happen, launch it manually via the desktop icon.

In the launch window there will be an opportunity to switch to the Russian-language interface, because initially Telegram will work with English. Click “Continue in Russian” and then in the same window click “Start communication”.

Now you need to indicate the phone number to which you are registering your Telegram account and confirm it. Without this, you won't be able to use the messenger.

If you have already been previously registered in Telegram, then just indicate here the number for which you registered and you will immediately be taken to your existing account. If you do not have an account, you will need to go through the registration procedure.

Select your country at the top mobile operator and enter your phone number below, then click “Continue”.

Please note that you do not need to enter a country code, for example, “+7”, it will be indicated automatically!

An SMS with a confirmation code like this will be sent to the specified number:

Enter this code in open now Telegram window and click Continue.

So, if you have already registered before, the program window will now immediately open with your existing chats and contacts. Example:

Select a photo from your computer, then you need to adjust the displayed area (crop the photo as you need) and click “Save”.

Now that the first name, last name and avatar are set, click “Register” in the same window.

All is ready! Telegram will be automatically opened and you can start using it:

I repeat, if suddenly Telegram does not connect to the Internet through your main home or Mobile Internet, then use a VPN connection!

Conclusion

In fact, bypassing the blocking in order to install Telegram and use it, as you probably already understood, is not at all difficult. There are, of course, other ways to bypass blocking, for example, through VPN extension in the browser, through proxy servers, through other VPN services... But the point is that no matter how blocked, useful services will continue to be used no matter what! :)

Do you use Telegram from your computer? How did you bypass the protection, please share :)

Have a nice day! :)

Greetings!

Sooner or later, this had to happen - access to Telegram servers was blocked on the territory of the Russian Federation and now the messenger stopped connecting and performing its function - secure 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 an IP address remote server which 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 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 Google client Play (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 fighting 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 or wasting time.

Why doesn't Telegram work?

Telegram

Why doesn't Telegram work?

For those who have recently joined the VTope project to increase subscribers on Telegram and other social networks, it will not be harmful to repeat the basics of using Pavel Durov’s messenger. Then trivial questions will not arise, such as: “why doesn’t Telegram work?” Registration in Telegram is carried out using a phone number, and mail in Telegram is not used.
Therefore, in order to register in this service, you must install Telegram on your phone and activate a subscriber number on it. Then, by indicating this phone number, you can log into any Telegram application. Two-step authorization is also present; it adds a password to the SMS code entered during authorization. Telegram still does not use e-mail, so it will be important to save your phone number, especially if a commercial channel promoted from VTope is linked to your Telegram account.

Telegram app is tiny in size

Compared to modern programs, Telegram applications take up virtually no space on your hard drive. You can additionally disable the saving of correspondence history and temporary files to save it even more. Regardless of what Telegram application size, its speed will be the highest, limited only by the thickness of the Internet connection channel.

Telegram.org in Russian for the computer: does it exist?

Not everyone likes using apps. Many people are satisfied with the web version of Telegram, which does not need to be downloaded, installed and launched separately. However, applications have long been available in Russian, and Telegram.org in Russian for a computer can be blocked by Roskomnadzor. You need to either log in through a proxy, or still use applications.

Today, many popular applications have been developed for smartphones, but not all of them are highly reliable. Users are increasingly complaining that Telegram, an instant messaging service, is not working. There are several reasons for the complexity. But most of them are easily explained and can be solved independently by the user with the right approach. In case of greater difficulties, the developer can also help.

If the client discovers that Telegram is not working, he is recommended to check the full functionality of his electronic device on which the application is downloaded, as well as the version of the program itself. With the latest developments it does not work with next versions Android operating system: 2.2, 2.3 and 3.0. All information about the current software version is usually located in the smartphone settings.

A similar case may arise with Telegram for computer. The standard version is not compatible with Windows 10, so for this software you will need to download a specialized version with the necessary settings. You can choose the most suitable program on the official website of the developer.

What doesn't work with telegrams today?

If the program previously worked as usual, but today it refuses to function, you should look for possible reasons in connection or settings problems:

1. The application does not load chats and calls. In such situations, the “Connection” service message appears. In this case, two prerequisites are likely: directly with the quality of the network (including when working via Wi-fi) or a problem with the application server. With the first option, the browser and other programs with Internet access usually also do not work.
2. The application opens but does not load data. This speaks of conflict software devices and Telegram. Often a similar situation occurs after an update.
3. The program does not load at all. This usually indicates an error in the development itself. In this case, it is recommended to reinstall.
4. The application works, but does not send notifications and does not allow you to receive or send files. In this case, you need to go to the device menu for notifications and privacy settings.
5. After installation, registration fails. This also applies to situations in which account activation codes do not arrive at the specified phone number. The user error in this case is the incorrect entry of the phone number or dial +8 (xxx) instead of +7 (xxx).

In some cases, including those related to a poor Internet connection, restarting the device may help, especially if Telegram does not work in the browser. It is also important to monitor application updates and check the compatibility of the software and the developer's product.

Even if the application is running and the connection is observed, some individual functions may not work:

1. Microphone. First of all, if difficulties arise, you need to check the serviceability and analyze the quality of the microphone. On your smartphone or computer, you should also check the device settings and its readiness for use.
2. Voice messages. Usually they cannot be sent if for some reason the microphone does not work.
3. Messenger search engine. If, when working in the application, you cannot find and add a user to make calls or exchange messages, most likely he simply did not register his account.
4. Calls. In Russia, the function of making calls via this application not fully available. Only those who have the corresponding icon in the form of a handset can make calls in Telegram. If you don't have one, you need to download latest version application, then find the user in phone book, which has this icon. After he calls a subscriber without an icon, he will also receive the right to make calls.

Messengers today are also blocked due to the refusal to transfer information about users, which is assumed by today's legislation of the Russian Federation. The problem may soon affect the Telegram application. However, there are several ways to bypass blocking. They consist of using a proxy and VPN service on devices.

Telegram doesn't work over wifi

Through Wi-fi network it is possible to open the messenger on a computer and more compact device. If, when connecting to wireless communication the program is not working, probable cause– failure of the Internet connection itself. To test this hypothesis, you should open any resource in a browser from this electronic device. If in this case the download is performed, then it is recommended to reinstall the messenger. If it is not there, the problem lies in the quality of the connection. If it is completely missing, you should check the technical aspects of the connection. If the “Connected” icon appears on your device, you need to contact your provider to resolve the problem.

Why doesn't Telegram web work?

Web Telegram is a version of the application that can be used directly in the browser in online mode without installation. If the site does not open immediately, you must also check your Internet connection using the above method.

In most cases, the problem lies precisely in the quality of the connection. If the network is working normally, the site may be hosting engineering works or problems with the Telegram server make themselves felt.

There are other situations in which the web version of Telegram and social networks do not work at the same time. They occur with a computer when hacker utilities that block the operation of systems get into it from a media or from a network. In this case, it is recommended to scan the device with an antivirus or contact service center.

Telegram does not work on iPhone

If you find problems with the operation of the messenger on your iPhone, you must first check the quality of the connection and restart the device. If Telegram online does not work even after these manipulations, you can check the latest software and, if necessary, download more new version. If you have problems with your smartphone, it is also recommended to contact the company’s customer support service.

Telegram does not work on Android

Problems associated with smartphones of different operating systems may converge in many ways. Therefore, if search in Telegram Android or other functions of the messenger on your phone do not work, you can perform the same operations. In addition, as mentioned above, some versions of the operating system are not compatible with the specified application.

Why doesn't Telegram work on my computer?

When a user notices that Telegram has stopped working, he tries to restart the computer and check the Internet connection. Some people completely reinstall operating system, without asking why this might happen. The first two options are correct, the last one is a last resort and does not always lead to a positive result.

In addition to these steps, it is also recommended that you try to check the software version and, if necessary, download a more current program. Sometimes the problem lies in the computer being infected with virus files or hacking tools. In this case, it is possible to use one or more available antiviruses for scanning.

If after taking the steps the program still does not start, it is useful to contact the support center or service center. There must be a reason for this, because if the only problem is found and it is only related to the application, there is usually no reason to repair it.

Conclusion

What happens to Telegram when it fails and why does it periodically lose its functions? These situations happen with all online applications, especially those related to social networks and message transmission. There are several reasons for the emergence of such difficulties, and not all of them relate directly to the program itself. If all the prerequisites that depend on the user turn out to be unconfirmed, the developer who oversees the work of the messengers can also help.
