OpenVPN?

Does anyone have experience with OpenVPN? I have almost no experience with VPNs, but I installed this on my home router and got it to work from Canada without a problem and was able to open USA-only content from there.

However, now that I am in China, when I connect with OpenVPN on my laptop or portable devices, it still looks like I am coming from China. If anyone can explain why this is happening, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Edit: I think I found my answer. Apparently China can see that this is VPN traffic over OpenVPN, so they can block it.
