Using Xiaomi AI on iPhone

[Bishen 0]

I just bought Xiaomi AI from China, which is a Chinese version of Amazon Alexia. I’m based in London, my iPhone 6 doesn’t connect it by Bluetooth initially. After using Airvpn in Hong Kong the phone connects the AI system by Bluetooth but not WiFi. I wonder if it’s because the server in Hong Kong is blocked by China or I missed something. Any help is highly appreciated.

 

The log for the connection, which is fine, is attached.

Hello!

 

Please try the following connection mode (you can see it in the Configuration Generator after you have ticked "Advanced Mode");

 

- entry-IP 3

- protocol TCP

- port 443

 

Connections to entry-IP address 3 will enable "tls-crypt" which is effective in bypassing the OpenVPN general block in China and other countries. TCP will get rid of UDP blocks, if any.

 

Kind regards
