VPN support check on Android devices

Resolution

Question:

Does my Android phone support SSL-VPN?

Answer:

In case you will troubleshoot an issue where you are unable to establish a working VPN connection (using SSL-VPN Mobile Connect software) from a specific phone (ANDROID-OS based), please download "TUN.KO installer" from the Google Play Market, after launching the app will tell you, whether the VPN support has been integrated into either the kernel or as a kernel module within the OS.

In case you see the error "tun module not loaded" the connection will not be possible due to lack of VPN support in the build- this can be bypassed if the phone is rooted, the installer will then search for compatible modules and install them.

Please note that rooting your phone might and probably WILL void your phone warranty and we cannot be held responsible for any and all lost data, contacts or similar.
