MODERATORS
Its advised to use a vpn on public wifis, even if youre not torrenting. Also you could sign up for a trial and go for it to see if there are restrictions.
If they are blocking vpns you could use one that uses http or https ports, those are pratically unblockable.
If most vpn's are blocked, you could try a proxy server but the reliablity and privacy of them can be questionable.
There is also DNS tunneling, while much harder it does work ok.
