I am unable to connect a Stadia Controller to any device when using Express VPN. I have tried everything and read through many forum posts to get this to work for my son. He loves FIFA but since he has difficulty finding online games in the US we are trying to use Express VPN to connect to London. Stadia works fine. I was able to do it on my Mac with my Nintendo controller once I'd disabled the Express VPN chrome extension. But using his iPad or the TV, when you enter the four digit code to connect the controller, it does not connect. When you turn off the VPN, no problem so I don't think it is port blocking. His iPad doesn't support usb3 connection to the Stadia Controller and when I connect wired to the TV, only A and B buttons work.. Since our other controllers also don't seem to work properly on any TV or the iPad, I just need any way for him to play Stadia using a VPN with any controller but ideally the Stadia one. We have tried the Stadia app and browser no luck. It appears that maybe the Stadia Controller needs location to actually connect and so maybe this is not possible. If not, that would help as I can stop spending hours trying to get it to work and annoying my wife who thinks I am "wasting time". Any help or pointers much appreciated!
