I'm travelling for the moment, and usually I just access my home network with tailscale and it has always worked flawlessly. But the hotel I'm staying at apparently blocks VPN connections, I can't use my regular VPN for work on their network either and I've tried obfuscation,different ports etc. nothing seems to work and it never connects.

How can I circumvent this, if at all? I'm staying for several weeks, so this is a pretty bug issue.

Have you passed their captive portal before turning on the VPN?

I haven't encountered a captive portal at all. I can use the internet just fine without VPN.
