How to Unblock Blocked Websites in WiFi

Last Updated: September 9, 2021

WiFi, either in airports, restaurants, coffee shops, schools, universities or even at home, would be coded to block certain websites. Unfortunately, in many cases, the block can only be removed by the administrator, but in other cases, there are some ways to bypass the block.

Method 1

Method 1 of 2:

Public WiFi

1
Know that, in airports, restaurants, coffee shops, and hospitals, there is most of the time "open" WiFi. It seems free at first sight, but will require a login and a password when trying to access a webpage via a browser.
2
To skip the login, connect your device to the WiFi.

3
Enter the URL of the website you want to access.
4
After finishing the URL, add "/?.jpg", and it will redirect to the requested page, skipping the login.
- For example, for www.facebook.com, type www.facebook.com/?.jpg

Method 2

Method 2 of 2:

Private WiFi (Password secured)

1
Know that, for this method, you need to be connected to the WiFi via the password. Also note that this method will not bypass anything, it will just give access to nice websites with mask names so they cannot be blocked.
2
Open a web browser.
3
Use Google (which is almost never blocked anywhere), to search for websites which names correspond to the domain of where you are (for example, if you are at school, they will not block websites that contain the words "maths" or "science") and add a description of the desired website (for instance, if you want social networking, type science social networking).
- For example, there is a cool website with free flash games called www.coolmath3.org. It is almost never banned and can be accessed without suspicion.

Expert Answer

If it was blocked on the browser, all you need to do is go to the "Settings" menu. Once you're there, look for the "Security" or "Privacy" section—be aware that the naming conventions will vary according to your system and browser. Then, look for a "Block Content" page to list or un-list websites that you want to block or unblock.

Find a web proxy site and use that. If that's blocked as well, you can use the TOR as a proxy website and anything normally blocked won't be recognized due to the redirecting.

You have to go into the Google Chrome store and download a free VPN. The best one is ZenMate. I don't recommend Hola.

Warnings

Some public WiFi connections (the most recent ones) have the "/?.jpg" exploit fixed, so it will NOT always work.
