Hey Cursor dev team! 👋

Ran into an issue today – everything was fine yesterday.

I’m working remotely and need to VPN into my company’s internal network in another country, but Cursor’s showing an “unauthorized” error.

It works fine when I disconnect from the VPN. I even tried some free VPNs to test, but Cursor only seems to work with my home country’s network. It doesn’t work when I connect to a network in any other country.

I use astrill when in China because it does not work via others.
