While VPNs can sometimes *cause* Error 1280 due to connection issues or server restrictions, they can also *resolve* it in certain cases. If your ISP is blocking Minecraft's connection, a VPN might bypass that block. However, using a VPN can also introduce new connection problems, so test without it first.
