There are two options to connect to the game:
* Bypassing the existing blocks: [[#General DMM Cookie-based Block|general DMM cookie-based block]] and [[#KanColle Gadget Server Block|KanColle gadget server block]]. Bypassing methods are recommended, please try using them first.
* Bypassing the existing blocks: [[#General DMM Cookie-based Block|general DMM cookie-based block]] and [[#KanColle Gadget Server Block|KanColle gadget server block]]. Bypassing methods are recommended, please try using them first.
** In summary, using a viewer that supports both bypass options and enabling those options is enough. Such viewers include: [https://github.com/KC3Kai/KC3Kai KC3Kai], [https://github.com/poooi/poi Poi] ([https://nightly.poi.moe/ nightly] version with a [https://github.com/kcwiki/poi-plugin-let-me-in plugin]), [https://github.com/gre4bee/ElectronicObserver ElectronicObserver] (fork), [https://github.com/antest1/GotoBrowser GotoBrowser] (for Android).
** Non-viewer solutions include: [https://github.com/Tibowl/KCCacheProxy KCCacheProxy], [https://github.com/kcwiki/chrome-extension-dmm DMM extension] (for Chrome), [https://github.com/einaregilsson/Redirector Redirector extension] (for other browsers, a [https://github.com/kcwiki/cache/blob/master/redirector.json custom config] should be imported, cookie fix should be applied [[#General DMM Cookie-based Block|manually]]).

Since February 26, 2020, KanColle login (or gadget, or login assets) server is blocking all non-Japanese IP addresses directly; thus, extra steps are required to load the game:
Since February 26, 2020, KanColle gadget server is blocking all non-Japanese IP addresses directly; thus, extra steps are required to load the game:
* On Android [https://github.com/antest1/GotoBrowser GotoBrowser] can be used: a substitute login server will be used if the "alter gadget URL" option is enabled in settings. The substitute server will serve the login assets, allowing a user to log in without needing to access the actual login server. [https://antest1.github.io/GotoBrowser/howto.html Additional] connection options can be used as well. Clearing cache may be required.

[https://antest1.github.io/GotoBrowser/howto.html Additional] connection options can be used as well. Clearing cache may be required.
* [https://poi.moe/ Poi] (v10.6.0 or later) can use a local cache folder, allowing to serve the [https://github.com/kcwiki/cache/archive/master.zip login assets] from a local folder, again, bypassing the need to connect to the real login server. The "3rd party cache" folder can be found in common settings, the path to login assets should be <code>3rd party cache folder/KanColle/gadget_html5</code> (technically, only <code>gadget_html5</code> folder is required to log in). Clearing cache in common settings and restarting the viewer may be required.
* [https://github.com/poooi/poi Poi] (latest [https://nightly.poi.moe/ nightly] version) can use a local cache folder, allowing to serve the [https://github.com/kcwiki/cache login assets] from a local folder, again, bypassing the need to connect to the real gadget server. The "3rd party cache" folder can be found in common settings (<code>%appdata%/poi/MyCache</code> be default on Windows), the path to login assets should be <code>3rd party cache folder/KanColle/gadget_html5</code> (<code>%appdata%/poi/MyCache/KanColle/gadget_html5</code> for Windows; technically, only <code>gadget_html5</code> folder is required to log in). Clearing cache in common settings and restarting the viewer may be required. A [https://github.com/kcwiki/poi-plugin-let-me-in plugin] can be used to automatically update the local cache.

Different VPN and proxy server providers can be used, as long as they have Japanese locations. Refer to their documentation on how to use them.
