# [[Mullvad]] Networking Resources Since the Mullvad mobile and desktop apps support [[Shadowsocks]] natively, this page is oriented towards setting up Mullvad on a router and/or circumventing the [[Great Firewall]]. ## Router Resources ### (FAQ, Index) [Routers FAQ](https://mullvad.net/en/help/tag/connecting-routers-mullvad) > Certain routers block Mullvad's website and API, and calls it "malware". Some routers from Asus and TP-Link include a DNS filter from Trend Micro which blocks Mullvad because using Mullvad will prevent their filter from working. To turn it off follow these instructions. ASUS: Go to AiProtection > Network Protection > turn off "Malicious Sites Blocking". TP-Link: Go to HomeCare or Security > Antivirus > turn off "Malicious Content Filter". Some Verizon Fios routers contain McAfee Home Network Protection which can also block Mullvad. In that case turn off Parental controls. ### (Guide) [WireGuard on a router](https://mullvad.net/en/help/running-wireguard-router) ### (Guide) [Using pfSense with Mullvad](https://mullvad.net/en/help/using-pfsense-mullvad) ### (Guide) [Asus Merlin and Mullvad VPN](https://mullvad.net/en/help/asus-merlin-and-mullvad-vpn) ### (Guide) [DD-WRT routers and Mullvad VPN](https://mullvad.net/en/help/dd-wrt-routers-and-mullvad-vpn) ### (Guide) [OpenWrt routers and Mullvad VPN](https://mullvad.net/en/help/openwrt-routers-and-mullvad-vpn) ### (Guide) [pfSense with WireGuard](https://mullvad.net/en/help/pfsense-with-wireguard) ## Censorship Circumvention Resources ### (Table) [List of Bridge (Shadowsocks) Servers](https://mullvad.net/en/servers?type=bridge) ### (Index) [Intro to Shadowsocks](https://mullvad.net/en/help/intro-shadowsocks) - Mullvad desktop app: activate [Bridge mode](https://mullvad.net/guides/how-use-bridge-mode/) to use the Shadowsocks proxy - [Shadowsocks with the Mullvad desktop app CLI](http://mullvad.net/guides/shadowsocks-mullvad-cli/) - [Shadowsocks with OpenVPN on Android](https://mullvad.net/guides/shadowsocks-android/) - [Shadowsocks with OpenVPN on Windows](https://mullvad.net/guides/shadowsocks-openvpn-windows/) - [Shadowsocks with OpenVPN on Linux](https://mullvad.net/guides/shadowsocks-openvpn-linux/) - [Shadowsocks with OpenVPN on macOS](https://mullvad.net/guides/shadowsocks-openvpn-macos/) (with Tunnelblick or Viscosity) - [Shadowsocks with v2ray](https://mullvad.net/help/shadowsocks-with-v2ray/) ### (Guide) [Shadowsocks with the Mullvad CLI](https://mullvad.net/en/help/shadowsocks-mullvad-cli) ### (Guide) [Shadowsocks with v2ray](https://mullvad.net/en/help/shadowsocks-with-v2ray) ### (Index) [Using Mullvad VPN in restrictive locations](https://mullvad.net/en/help/connecting-to-mullvad-vpn-from-restrictive-locations) ### (Guide) [xtls with Mullvad VPN](https://mullvad.net/en/help/xtls-with-mullvad-vpn) ### (Guide) [SSH and Mullvad VPN](https://mullvad.net/en/help/ssh-and-mullvad-vpn) ### (Reddit) [Mullvad over OpenVPN+Shadowsocks+v2ray blocked in PRC?](https://www.reddit.com/r/mullvadvpn/comments/12wvpxi/mullvad_over_openvpnshadowsocksv2ray_blocked_in/) [[2023-04-24]] ### (SNBForums thread) [ShadowSocks on Merlin](https://www.snbforums.com/threads/shadowsocks-on-merlin.79849/) ### (GitHub repo) [Acris/shadowsocks-asuswrt-merlin](https://github.com/Acris/shadowsocks-asuswrt-merlin) *Shadowsocks for Asuswrt-Merlin New Gen*
