I have found a free VPN that can run using https protocol (and other
methods), which means that it cannot be blocked (unless you want to block
secure web sites!). I use it a lot for WAN networking of N1MM.
It's SoftEther, at https://www.softether.org/
It requires a VPN server, but they have a free offering that runs on
Amazon. You even get your own subdomain.
Clients for Windows, Mac, Linux, etc. It can emulate OpenVPN and
Microsoft protocols.
The software was written by a Japanese PHD Student. It's rock solid.
Highly recommended. Great documentation.
It will work for solving this telnet issue.
