Troubleshooting

How to fix CyberGhost VPN not working

CyberGhost VPN is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

  1. Reconnect to a different server

    Disconnect from the current location, choose another country in the server list, and connect again. If the button stays on Connecting, force close the app and reopen it before you retry.

  2. Switch protocol and turn off blockers

    Open the app settings, set Protocol to WireGuard, and test the connection; if it still fails, try OpenVPN. Turn off Kill Switch and Split Tunneling for the test, because either one can leave you offline when the tunnel drops.

  3. Flush DNS and reset the network stack

    On Windows, open Command Prompt as administrator and run ipconfig /flushdns, then netsh winsock reset. Restart the PC and reconnect the app, since a stale DNS cache or broken Winsock entry can make the tunnel look connected while pages fail to load.

  4. Reinstall and test another network

    Uninstall the app and restart your device, then install it again from the same app store you used before. Log in and connect on a phone hotspot; if that works, your home router or ISP is blocking VPN traffic, and the help centre at https://support.cyberghost.com can walk you through the next check.

While CyberGhost VPN is down: what to use instead

  • NordVPN A second VPN app gets you online when the app will not connect.
  • ExpressVPN Install it before an outage, because signing in and downloading a client while you are stuck is a poor use of time and usually adds more frustration than it solves.
  • Proton VPN Use it for basic browsing when the service is unreachable.
  • CyberGhost website Sign in there to check your account or grab the installer again when only the app is failing.
Your device

Fix CyberGhost VPN on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

CyberGhost VPN on Windows

Fix
Restart the CyberGhost VPN app and try switching the connection protocol to WireGuard in the settings. If issues persist, reinstall the CyberGhost network adapter via the Windows Device Manager.
Check
Check if the CyberGhost VPN app status displays an infinite 'Connecting' loop or a connection error. Verify if you can access the internet after disconnecting the VPN.
Command Prompt
ping cyberghost.comTest whether CyberGhost VPN's servers reply
nslookup cyberghost.comCheck that CyberGhost VPN's DNS resolves
tracert cyberghost.comTrace where the connection drops
ipconfig /flushdnsClear the DNS cache, then reload

CyberGhost VPN on Mac

Fix
Ensure the CyberGhost VPN helper tool is enabled in your macOS Login Items, or try changing the protocol to WireGuard. You can also reinstall the app to restore damaged system extensions.
Check
Look for connection timeout alerts in the CyberGhost VPN app or check if the menu bar icon fails to turn green. Test your internet connection with the VPN disabled.
Terminal
ping -c 4 cyberghost.comTest whether CyberGhost VPN's servers reply
nslookup cyberghost.comCheck that CyberGhost VPN's DNS resolves
traceroute cyberghost.comTrace where the connection drops
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reload

CyberGhost VPN on Android

Fix
Clear the CyberGhost VPN app cache in your device settings or reinstall the app from the Google Play Store. Changing the connection protocol or switching server locations can also resolve hangs.
Check
Open the CyberGhost VPN app to check for error messages or see if the VPN key icon is missing from your status bar. Try loading a website on mobile data to rule out local Wi-Fi issues.

CyberGhost VPN on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Delete and reinstall the CyberGhost VPN app from the App Store, which resets the iOS VPN configurations. You can also try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data to establish a connection.
Check
Check if the CyberGhost VPN app gets stuck on the connection screen or displays a network error. Verify if the 'VPN' indicator is missing from your iOS status bar when activated.
About

What happens when CyberGhost VPN goes down

CyberGhost VPN is a VPN app for phones and computers. Remote workers and travelers on public Wi-Fi use it to keep traffic encrypted, so when it drops, pages stall and apps lose their connection until the app reconnects.

The app may sit on Connecting and then fail back to Disconnected. The server list can load slowly or refuse to refresh, so picking a different location does not help. If the kill switch is on, your device can lose internet access entirely until you disconnect or turn it off. Failures often hit one region or a handful of servers rather than the whole service, so a different location sometimes works; the status above only reflects problem reports, not a test from this site.

Questions

CyberGhost VPN FAQ

Is CyberGhost VPN down right now?
The status at the top of this page shows whether problem reports for CyberGhost VPN are above their usual level; it counts reports in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. The site does not ping or monitor the service, so a normal reading means no report spike, not proof that every server works. To check if the fault is on your side, switch networks, try another device, and sign out and back in; if only one device fails, the problem is local.

Why does CyberGhost VPN keep disconnecting on my phone?
Battery optimization is the first thing to check, because Android and iOS can suspend the app in the background and drop the tunnel. Try another protocol in the app settings and test on Wi-Fi and mobile data; if only one network drops, the router or carrier is the likely cause.

Can I set up CyberGhost VPN on a router?
The app does not run on most routers, so you use manual configuration files on a compatible model. The help centre has router guides; read the protocol and model notes before you buy hardware, because not every router supports the setup.

Why does CyberGhost VPN say my subscription expired after I paid?
A payment can take time to clear, and the app may keep the old account state until you sign out and back in. If you paid through an app store, use the restore purchase option; if the message stays, send the receipt to support through the help centre.

Why does CyberGhost VPN fail to connect on hotel or airport Wi-Fi?
Captive portals often block VPN traffic until you open a browser and finish the sign-in page, so connect to the Wi-Fi without the VPN first. If the app still fails, switch protocol or port in settings and try a different network; a locked-down network can block the connection even when the service is healthy.

How we track CyberGhost VPN

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for CyberGhost VPN, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for CyberGhost VPN, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. CyberGhost VPN doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
