Hi @ang_w , Welcome to the forum.

Could you please clarify how you are accessing the Gemini API and from which location you are making the request?

Hello,
I’m using nordvpn and for couple of days my gemini client API could not connect with gemini. I have noticed that when I turn off vpn it can connect with no problem. I’m connecting from Polnad. What have changed? Do I have to disconnect vpn now every time I want to use my gemini client? Thats not secure! Please advise how to establish secure connection?
