To get around the foreign IP block of Gungho that also affects "Yogurting" you can use the following workaround.
Download and install the PacketiX VPN client: http://www.packetix.net/en/secure/install/
(You can select the manual installation .exe for Windows 32bit or 64bit on that page.)

Once downloaded, install the software with administrator rights. Then start the PacketiX VPN client.


In the first window, right-click in the lower part and select and click "Create Virtual Network Adapter"

Image


Choose a name for your Virtual network Adpater and click "Ok".

Image

Let this installation complete. Windows (Vista) may give you a signed driver error, you may ignore this.

Image


After the Virtual Network Adapter installation has completed right-click in the top area and select "New VPN Connection Setting".

Image


In the next window select the Virtual Network Adapter you want to use, choose a Setting Name for the connection and make sure to at least have these settings from http://www.packetix.net/en/secure/install/ as below:
VPN Server host name: public.softether.com
VPN Server port number: 443
Virtual Hub name: PUBLIC
User name: PUBLIC
User authentication: anonymous

Image

Click "Ok" to conclude or "Advanced Settings" if you want to alter those.


You can increase the number of TCP connections and check "Use Half-Duplex Mode" to try and increase connection speed, click "Ok" to close and then "Ok" again in the "New VPN Connection Setting" window.

Image


Double-click the VPN Connetion icon to start the connection you created.

Image

Click “Agree to the Terms of Service and start connection”, the connection should then start.

Image


You can now join us in Yogurting!


This has been tested and works on Vista 64bit. When you start and run the VPN connection, it may (and most likely will) cut off all other connections on that same computer such as torrent, Internet browsers, MSN,...

Thanks to Myuto/Kyubi-Fox for the instructions!
