Handy wifi not working in Russia?

Hello there

Recently, Handy stopped working in Wi-Fi mode. I think it’s because the government is blocking servers (I’ve heard stories of other devices (washing machines, smart kettles) not working with Wi-Fi), but it seems impossible to install a VPN on the Handy itself. Is it possible to use its full functionality without handy servers?
Are there any people here with a similar problem or is my handy broken?

It should still have bluetooth.

Bluetooth doesn’t reach its full potential, most scripts are written for Wi-Fi mode. It can’t reproduce such things in Bluetooth mode.

If it is an issue with russia and you cant vpn or make a private server, your options(without more information from the handy team) are manual(no funscripts) or bluetooth(simple funscripts) or not using the device at all.

If you have an android capable of hotspotting,
Setup a VPN on your phone and connect the handy to your phone’s hot spot.

Your phone’s NAT will go through the VPN.

If your more technical, setup a wifi router with a VPN and that will work.

upd.
Well, after a more in-depth study of the issue, I dare to assume that the Wi-Fi module in my handy died. rip.
What about handy2? Is it a good device? Or does it make sense to get version 1 again?

Хенди в России заблокировали раздаю интернет через впн и хоь спот, только тогда работает

handy is not blocked. Cloudflare is blocked, and because of this, there is no access to handy servers anymore.

set up a vpn on your router. Or install a vpn on your computer (you need an application, not a browser extension) and connect the handy to computer hotspot
