Accessing Box from China
回答済みI saw some other archived posts from the community related. But still decided to post one myself...
I am fairly new to box and I have Box Sync on laptop and Box APP on my iphone. I am travelling to China for business for a week. Wonder if now Box is accessible from mainland China using Box Sync OR BOX APP on my phone? What about simply just use firefox for box.com?
I saw there are posts regarding using boxcn.net from China. But do I need to change my app settings before the trip? Just want some clarification.
Thanks.

Hi ,
Thanks for your post and for following up on this topic. The best route as mentioned before in other posts are using VPNs for Box Sync, but other applications may have better success such as Box Mobile. Box Notes on the other hand may not have much success.
Appreciate your follow up and again VPN and the other unique domains may be your best bet.

Hi ,
Welcome to the Box Community and thanks for your first post in the forum!
If you have users that need to access Box in China, you can have them access our site using https://app.boxcn.net (please make sure to connect with https).
When you generate the shared links while logged in to this URL, the shared link will be changed to https://app.boxcn.net/s/ (alphanumeric characters) which will be accessible in China.
Alternatively, you can also use VPN services as recommended by some of our members on this thread.

does the https://app.boxcn.net offer the same level of security as the normal box site?

Hey
Thanks for posting in the Box Community! The site you've referenced does indeed offer the same level of security, albeit at a possibly lower speed since it does not utilize upload accelerators. For more information about upload accelerators, take a look at this Box Community article: Tuning the Box Upload Accelerators to Improve Upload Speed.
Thanks for using Box, and let us know if you have further questions!

Unfortunately https://www.boxcn.net does not work in China. We were told that using a qq.com email would be one way to access Box but this doesn't work either. Apart from using a VPN (not an option), is there ANY way to access a Box data room in China? Thank you!

I have new users based in mainland China who need accounts set up in Box. I've already sent them the account.boxcn.net alternative link in an attempt to set up their accounts. Unfortunately, as a part of setting up an account, new users have to validate their identify with reCAPTCHA. Reading through other forums, reCAPTCHA is not supported in China as reCAPTCHA communicates with Google. Google is not fully supported in mainland China.
Is there an alternative procedure to set up new accounts in mainland China that does not use reCAPTCHA validation?
