Sky yahoo mail in Vietnam

[Doris72]

Last year I couldn't access my email account whilst in Vietnam. I only regained access when got to Thailand. Is there a reason for this?

@Doris72 

Some sort of security chceks in place by Yahoo perhaps ?

@Doris72 yes, connections from some areas are considered a risk and are blocked. In my experience, connections in some parts of Thailand are also blocked.

You might be able to use a mobile connection where  broadband has been blocked.

[Doris72]

Is there anyway to unblock it?

[Mark39]

@Doris72 no. As I understand it, the block is placed on the IP address used for the connection. That's not something you can do anything about- apart from using a different connection which will have a different IP address.

Incidentally, if you do get  a connection, be very careful what you do via a WiFi connection, as it may be being monitored.
