Hello people, new here, happy so far. Win 11 pro 25H2 OpenVPN 2.6.14 OpenVPN GUI 11.55.0.0 I used the config generator, that is really slick by the way, selected the specific servers I wanted, and set it to IPV4 only but, I'm still seeing IPV6 connections on the outside. Well, I was until I added these last 3 lines to the config. Now I just see errors (below) in the connection log telling me it's doing what I want but, why is it trying to make these connections at all? All the little IPV6 check boxes are unchecked everywhere on the LAN. Can I stop it from trying? It makes the log popup and stay on the screen when I connect. Just a small annoyance but little errors bug me, especially when I have to respond to them every time, even with a single click. WARNING: OpenVPN was configured to add an IPv6 route. However, no IPv6 has been configured for OpenVPN Data Channel Offload, therefore the route installation may fail or may not work as expected. client dev tun remote 198.44.129.210 1194 resolv-retry infinite nobind persist-key persist-tun auth-nocache verb 3 explicit-exit-notify 5 rcvbuf 262144 sndbuf 262144 remote-cert-tls server data-ciphers AES-256-GCM:AES-192-GCM:AES-128-GCM data-ciphers-fallback AES-256-GCM proto udp auth SHA512 block-outside-dns auth-user-pass xxxxxxxxxxx pull-filter ignore "ifconfig-ipv6" pull-filter ignore "route-ipv6" pull-filter ignore "tun-ipv6"

Eddie and qBittorrent work fine, but when i change to another server, in [qBittorrent>advanced>network-interface] sometimes a new, second 'eddie-interface' appears and qBittorrent stays connected to the old bound adapter that is no longer active. Manually switching solves it, but when i forget to switch, or do not restart the torrent client, it wont reconnect. I did a clean reinstall for qBittorent Also checked %AppData%\Roaming\qBittorrent\qBittorrent.ini Session\Interface=iftype xxxxxxx Session\InterfaceName=Eddie I both made them empty after the =, but no difference qBittorrent 5.3.0 Eddie 2.26.2 - Wireguard ipv4 and 6 Windows 11 Pro 26H2 Windows does show 2 adapters, Ethernet and Eddie, like it should be. I never had this issue. What else should i try?

Thanks for the feedback @mith_y2k I agree that the WebUI has become quite feature-rich, perhaps a little too much for a first setup. There's already a three-step setup wizard (accessible again via the ? button) but your feedback makes me think I should simplify things further, with basic and advanced settings separated more clearly. i'll work on it. Regarding the benchmarks, the fact that your main Gluetun tunnel works but all sidecar tests fail suggests a configuration or connectivity issue specific to the sidecar. I've fixed several sidecar-related issues recently, including host addressing and port mapping, so I'd like to rule those out first. Could you please check a few things? Are you running the latest Companion and Sidecar images? What is the exact error displayed when a benchmark fails Could you share your Companion logs? docker logs --tail 200 gluetun-companion. If possible, could you also share your Compose configuration and the sidecar-related settings? with credentials and private keys removed That should help me identify what's going wrong. As for Grafana, the downloadable dashboard currently focuses on benchmark results (download/upload speeds, latency, stability, errors, etc.), rather than monitoring the actual live traffic passing through your VPN tunnel. The WebUI already displays connection information and benchmark history but I agree that having live VPN traffic statistics directly in Companion would be useful. I'll keep that in mind for a future PR.

Installation went fairly smoothly, I had to create the directories in my Synology, but then ran. Overall I found the basic installation simple to follow, but once the web app is running I was thrown into 100 different parameters. All good to have, but as a first setup it was overwhelming. I am not sure if I configured the web app correctly, the gluetun tunnel is running, but all the tests for other servers are consistently failing. I have also not found any logs anywhere to try understanding why. I can see in the AirVPN Sessions page that the sidecar sessions are starting, but they are not sending or receiving much data (just a few bytes) and then failing. Separately I saw there's a link to download grafana information, but I thought I could see data about the tunnel IN the web app, is that not right?

When computer shutsdown Eddie's netlock is still active
pHxaq replied to major4579's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Had a frustrating time after closing the Eddie app on Windows 10 recently—I lost internet access immediately. Switching Wi-Fi didn't help. I tried reopening the app first, which restored the connection, but closing it normally dropped the internet again. The key was checking the DNS settings. They were pointing to an unknown server. I changed the setting to "Obtain DNS server address automatically," and that fixed the issue instantly after I closed the app. Follow these steps to locate and modify your DNS configuration: Open Network and internet settings. Navigate to Advanced network settings. Click Change adapter options. Right-click on your active Wi-Fi adapter and select Properties. Select Internet protocol version 4. The DNS settings will be visible in the properties window. -

Attempting to connect to any server times out
Tech Jedi Alex replied to hootinani's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Close Eddie, reopen and try a connection once, then provide a system report: . -
Should be okay – you are using it for your own desktops only, so there won't be much load generated.

If using amneziawg and the vpn session is ended, are the adapter settings restored to previous setting such as dns?

Nope, didn't work. my startup command is now: Eddie-UI.exe --path=home --batch --netlock --connect --netlock.allowed_ips=192.168.1.10 --gui.exit_confirm=False and I setup the batchfile to run in the Task Scheduler. But the next day (today) the Network Lock was still Active. I had to start Eddie-UI and Deactivate the Network Lock before I had access to the internet. I just realized that I had not checked "Run with Highest Privileges". I'll check it out tomorrow morning. Anything else to try? Thanks, Marc

The Configuration Generator default profile is DCO-ready, with no deprecated directives (details https://airvpn.org/road_to_openvpn26) 17 new 10 Gbit/s full duplex servers in Amsterdam (Netherlands), London and Manchester (United Kingdom), Toronto (Canada), Los Angeles and New York City (USA) and Stockholm (Sweden) United Kingdom infrastructure fully renewed: all the old 1 Gbit/s servers were replaced by six new 10 Gbit/s servers, which raises the UK theoretical peak from 15 to 60 Gbit/s. In Sweden, the older Uppsala servers were retired in favour of new 10 Gbit/s hardware in Stockholm Total infrastructure bandwidth up by about 25%, now over 1.3 Tbit/s Faster uploads and smoother performance under load: a deep rework of server-side routing and firewall rules removed a bottleneck on busy high-speed servers, and network tuning sharply reduced packet drops Eddie Android edition 4.0 and 4.1: full AmneziaWG support alongside OpenVPN and WireGuard.

Using Eddie I am unable to connect to any server. The connection attempt times out and it begins to attempt to connect to the next server, which also times out, and so on. I have tried renewing the certificate and relogging and also switching to the beta 2.27.2 client, but neither have worked. I have used AirVPN/Eddie for a couple of months now with no issues, so I'm unsure why I all of the sudden can't connect.

@Staff Please consider adding more servers in these locations if possible. Thank you.

When computer shutsdown Eddie's netlock is still active
Staff replied to major4579's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Hello! When Windows shuts down, it closes Eddie before Eddie can disconnect and remove its Network Lock rules. With Fast Startup enabled (the Windows 10 default), Shut down does not fully reset the system, so the leftover rules are still active when you power on the computer the next day. When Eddie exits normally, it disconnects and removes the Network Lock by itself, so the solution is to let Eddie exit before Windows shuts down. 1. Add --gui.exit_confirm=False to your launch command, so that Eddie does not ask for a confirmation when it is closed: Eddie-UI.exe --path=home --batch --netlock --connect --netlock.allowed_ips=192.168.1.10 --gui.exit_confirm=False 2. Replace your scheduled shutdown with a scheduled task (Task Scheduler) that runs this batch file: @echo off taskkill /IM Eddie-UI.exe set /a n=0 :wait timeout /t 5 /nobreak >nul tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq Eddie-UI.exe" | find /I "Eddie-UI.exe" >nul || goto off set /a n+=1 if %n% lss 12 goto wait :off shutdown /s /t 0 taskkill without /F asks Eddie to close as if you had chosen Exit: Eddie disconnects, removes the Network Lock and exits. The batch file waits up to one minute for Eddie to exit, then shuts the computer down. In the task properties, run it under your own account with "Run only when user is logged on" and "Run with highest privileges", so that taskkill can reach the Eddie window. Please let us know whether the Network Lock is gone the next morning. Kind regards -
Hello! The AirVPN Suite has no graphical interface at the moment: Bluetit runs as a system daemon, while Goldcrest and Hummingbird are command line programs. Their output is shown by your terminal emulator, so the background, text colors and font are decided by the terminal, not by the Suite. To get a dark mode, select a dark theme or profile in your terminal emulator's preferences (GNOME Terminal, Konsole, xterm and so on), and the Suite will be displayed with it. Kind regards

Windows 10 Pro computer. I start the VPN with: "Eddie-UI.exe --path=home --batch --netlock --connect --netlock.allowed_ips=192.168.1.10" My computer is set to turn off in the early hours. When it does the netlock action is still active, the next day when I start my computer I have to start Eddie and click on "Deactivate Network Lock" and then I will have internet access. Is there a simple batch file command I can run before the computer shutsdown to Deactivate the Network Lock and cleanly exit Eddie? Sorry for the newbie questions. Thanks, Marc

Hello, thank you for the report. We checked all exit addresses, IPv4 and IPv6, of our Phoenix servers (Guniibuu, Khambalia, Sheratan) and Chicago servers (Fang, Kruger, Meridiana, Praecipua, Sadalsuud, Sneden, Superba): MaxMind GeoLite2, ipinfo.io and ip-api.com all place them correctly in Phoenix, Arizona and Chicago, Illinois, US. Google and Meta use their own location data for IP addresses, which can differ from those public databases, so they can place a shared exit address in another country even when the public databases are right. We cannot edit their data directly. Google offers a form to report a wrong IP location: https://support.google.com/websearch/workflow/9308722?hl=en Submit it while connected to the affected server; Google says updates can take more than a month. If it happens again, please post the server name and the exit IP shown by https://ipleak.net at that moment, so we can check that specific address. In the meantime, a server in another city or country is the practical workaround. Kind regards
