Hello. I am using the Anki more than two years and very glad of it. Week ago desktop client and ankidroid stops syncing to the ankiweb. I recheck my connection and try to install vpn connection to the ankiweb. After this ankidroid syncing fine but desktop not. I am updated the desktop version to las…

Anki synchronization restored on the Russia without any local actions. You can stop using local sync server. Thanks, this tread can be closed.

It sounds like you were having some connection issues. Has that resolved now? FAQ: Error establishing a secure connection when syncing - Anki FAQs

Yes, it looks like this. I tried all variants from FAQ, after that AnkiDroid works fine, but desktop version not. The first time I have troubles to visit to the AnkiWeb site. I resolve it with vpn help. VPN also helped to AnkiDroid, but not for AnkiDesktop. Currently, I started local synchronizatio…

Hello. I’m facing a similar problem as the author. I’ve tried everything (reinstalling, using a VPN, antivirus, firewall, and logging out), but nothing is working. I’m getting a 404 error on your link

May be, do you know some way to trace request for clarifying this situation? May be logs, or tracerout, or something else? I have some technical experience t…

[image] Ezhi: I have access from AnkiDroid under vpn from same wifi network, but not desktop version. Yes, I saw that. That means you’ve narrowed down that it’s something else happening on your device, not something on your network. That’s where you should start looking.

I am tried your link on another workstation on a different network, but the result same: nginx 404 :frowning:

Yes, that’s the “successful” result here (as explained in that other thread) – your device can reach the AnkiWeb servers in a browser. It seems that the sync is failing connect because something else on your device isn’t letting the Anki program reach the servers.
