Just change the proxy to 0 instead of 1 and he can connect to the server heres the quote of the owner of the plugin

EDIT: I definitely think that there should be two checks put in place as I'm having a fair few people a day come to me asking to be unblocked and I'm checking their IPs and they're valid ISPs.

That doesn't fix the problem with the false positives though. If you get a lot of those I image it would be a big pain in the ass to fix all manually also you could lose players because of that.
I don't have this problem myself because I think that 3rd party website detects all isps from my coutry as not proxy but I'll probably change the default site to something else and maybe provide a config from which you can easily change it yourself.

That sounds good, can you recommend any other URLs I can replace with in your plugin currently?

Any particular reason you decided on using System2 vs SteamWorks for the http requests? Just curious, as SteamWorks definitely is more widely used, and I'm sure I speak for others when I say the less dependencies, the better.

Could you please explain, in which way is it more reliable, ... for you?

You are right, steamworks definitely is more widely used extension and I changed the http requests to use it instead and made some other changes aswell.

Code:
1.1.0 (17-Jan-2019)
    - Made the plugin use steamworks instead of system2 for http requests.
    - Added option to change the url which is used to check for vpns.
    - Added option to only log users who join with VPN instead of kicking them.
