I want to use the internet connection of the servers at my university. I have a remote desktop account, and I have tried setting up VPN, but all VPN or proxy server software I could think of was blocked.

Windows' built in VPN is blocked too. When I go to "Change Adapter Settings" and click on "File->New Incoming Connection", it says "Access denied."

What would your suggestion be to use the internet connection of the remote desktop?
