That's an inherent problem with shared connections.
The thing with sites telling you that your login is incorrect is also sometimes intentional, so people trying to brute-force logins won't realize they're getting blocked or just that their attempt was incorrect.
And yes, the only possibility is to try a different server that hasn't been abused, or run your own.
This is what 2FA is for
I don't know if it even works, but have you considered relying on their Stealth protocol? While its absence on Linux ~(and~ ~Windows)~ means that you might not even be able to make use of it in the first place, I'm still interested to know if it makes any difference.

We need laws that prevent companies from discriminating by how you look. Websites should only be able to deny customers based on how they act. A simple innocent GET from a user with a VPN IP should not be legally permissible reason to deny them.
That thing where they claim the username/password combo is wrong?
That sounds like a really good idea if the site thinks the reason they're a lot of different lock-on attemps from that one ip is because its a hacker with a list of stolen credentials.
Basically just tell them their list is fake and "go away and stop bothering our customers, please."
Thats not a good idea because these systems false-positive all the time.
If my first login attempt has the correct username, correct password, and correct totp token, then I should always be let in. That's literally how auth works.
