Happy Birthday AirVPN! Been here since 2012. 🍻

Hi, I love AirVPN (this is a throwaway account), but for me connectivity varies wildly (I got horrible upload speeds on the 10Gbps servers I tried) Romania and M247 (in my experience) tend to have very good connectivity. Could you work on Upgrading Canes or Alamak to 10Gbps or at least 2Gbps? I don't know much about its pricing but I would really love it. And for some reason I didn't get the best speeds on AltusHost either, I don't know how these things work. Thank you for the very good service and I totally understand if it's not possible, but maybe in a few months, you could calculate whether this possible upgrade would accommodate new users.

ANSWERED Eddie losing settings on startup
Kevig replied to Kevig's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
no, i cant use wake on lan. i would mean the server (pc) won't power down but enters a sleepstate instead. that in turn means the server would still consume power, processes may be stopped (or not), the server must "lower shields/firewall" to be able to accept the WOL and so on. in the past i have had a lot of bad experiences with these powerstates, often with startup troubles or, like now, damaged files. so for me this solutions works most reliable, i use a ping and read the powerled to see if the server is on. i connected the power switch and power led trough an optocoupler so there is no physical connection between the server and raspberry pi. the pi checks every 3 minutes if there are any pc online and the state of the server. if there is no pc online and the server is on, the pi shuts the server down if there is one or more pc online and the server is offline the pi starts the server no need for changing windows settings (with the risk windows rolls back my settings after an update), simple careless operation same reason i dont use the remote shutdown command, sounds easy, but requires setting up the access to that service on the server in windows and in the firewall. -
both tab mini and poco f8 ultra fail to connect although no problems logging in

Can't you use Wake On LAN ? (WOL) and psshutdown (or equivalent for your server's OS) ? -

Kevig replied to Kevig's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Hello, it seems the fast startup did the trick. i just 8 button pressed on/off sequences and it went fine. before i couldn't do more than two without the loss of settings. i can notice some longer startup and shutdown time, but not very much, at least not something to think about. thank you for your help for the record: when the trouble happens, 2 out of 3 times a simple re-install worked to solve the problem. 1 out of 3 times, only a complete removal of eddie (on all locations) i also tried out the long button press, it seems to give less trouble than the short button press with fast startup enabled. as long as i worked with windows, the sleep/hybernate cr** gave troubles. -

i tried the beta, no difference. but it seems it wont hold the settings even after a normal shutdown. i have now removed the entire program, deleted the airvpn/eddie directories and reinstalled the beta i have also removed the fast startup option now i am going to do a new set of trails the program will only press the on/off button for 0.2 sec, shorter than i could do by hand i timed the shutdown time on while pressing the shutdown option and the (short) keypress. They are the same, so it looks like the (short) keypress initiates a "normal"shutdown -

Staff replied to Kevig's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Hello! In Windows 11, by default "Fast Startup" is enabled, so pressing briefly the on/off button when the machine is on will cause an Hybrid Shutdown + Partial Hibernation. In turn, this causes multiple problems (not only to Eddie). If Fast Startup is enabled, please disable it and test whether the problem disappears. Also make sure that Eddie's setting available in the Preferences > UI window, "Ask confirmation at exit", is NOT checked. NOTE: long pressing the on/off button will cause a power outage and therefore possible corruption of files and file system, so this should be avoided at all costs. Kind regards -

Kevig replied to Kevig's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
hello, i am running 2.24.6 i think the problem is indeed the shutting down. when the server is shutting down i can see the busy circle moving before it closes down, so it is not doing a "forced" shutdown. But i think it isn't shutting down the same way as a software shutdown either. i will try the beta release and let you know -

Staff replied to Kevig's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
@Kevig Hello! Which Eddie version are you running? Can you test Eddie 2.25 beta (if you haven't already done so) and check whether the same problem occurs? https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/79305-eddie-desktop-edition-225-beta-released/ Is the server OS capable to manage the ACPI hardware event triggered by pushing the on/off button? For example a Linux server fully supporting the underlying BIOS is able to catch the event and start a graceful shutdown (typically via acpid or systemd-logind), and this should ensure that Eddie exits cleanly. What is the OS of the server? Does the problem occur even when the shutdown is properly performed? Kind regards -

hello. still doesn't support? -
hello all, i got the following problem. i use air vpn with eddie on a pc i use as server in my network. the server (pc) is started and stopped remotely by a raspberry pi. the pi checks is there are any pc online who needs the server. If he finds one or more he starts the server, if there are none he stops the server. the pi does so by pressing the server on/off button for 0.2 sec this starts the server, and shut down the server only when the server hangs the pi uses a forced shutdown by pressing the key for 5 sec this works fine, but there is a problem eddie loses his settings. for example the "dont ask elevation every run" setting or the "exit conformation prompt" this causes the server to wait for me to go there and click on the "yes" button, making the whole remote thing useless after eddie loses the setting, only reinstalling helps, sometimes i need to uninstall completely and reinstalling who has a solution for this?

Hi, I have noticed for quite a few weeks now the Estonia server is under very high load for a lot of the time. It would be great if the bandwidth could be improved or if an extra server could be added. Thanks.

It has to be the Pumpkin Toadlet. A little orange blip that's too small to be called a proper toad. It's so tiny that the bones used for balance in its ears are useless, turning its hops into harrowing, graceless leaps into the unknown. Some of them even have white splotches on their heads and back, making them look like little pumpkin pie slices. https://o.uguu.se/MGwjbwdX.png

Getting on for fifteen years for me. And yes, I did have to check the date on the first invoice Happy Birthday AirVPN

Did you ever gets this resolved on your system? I spend alot of time on the USA servers to have a USA IP and those servers give me 800 meg -- many times over a Gig. I am on fiber which helps but the servers scream for me! I do usually limit my selection to Air's 20000 MBit servers since I am fiber driven on my end.

Road to OpenVPN 2.6 and DCO
oassQ9w4cbl4AySZhhth%p36x replied to Staff's topic in News and Announcement
the major benefit being that ChaCha20-Poly1305 vs AES-256-GCM or AES-128-GCM on proper AES-NI supporting x86 machines can mean 2-3x the performance for the latter. Wireguard only supporting the former means either hardware can't keep up or we get into a good chunk of wasted cpu cycles for nothing. i'll wait until the full upgrade happens before switching over but I am thankful that AirVPN are going to number the providers who are supporting this finally. Thank you AirVPN. -
This is great news. I'm already using it on a device, and I must say it feels more stable than WG, even with the servers on high load. Great great news. Thanks.

Split tunneling will be implemented in future releases, but sorry it's a complex thing, i cannot say when.

Darker mode planned in Eddie 3.0. There is a Settings > UI > Exit confirmation prompt, default true, you mean something different?

Right now the only way a script can judge whether or not a server is having issues is to check the text within the "health" key. This is great for understanding if a server is currently dealing with an issue at the exact moment of the check, but it doesn't help for servers that are having repeated instances of packet loss. This results in any "rank AirVPN servers" script that sorts based on bandwidth and health to always choose the latest server to recover from a high packet loss incident since it'll be using the least amount of its possible bandwidth. It doesn't seem like a nice idea to recommend users to dogpile onto a server that's already recovering from a network issue so I'd like to request more historical status information to be added to the server API schema. Compare the data in the API (https://airvpn.org/api/status/) to what's available in the Status Log table at the bottom of every server page. https://airvpn.org/servers/Revati/ That log gives a better picture of the server health over a longer period of time than just "ok" or "warning". So I'm proposing something like this: { "deprecated_warning": "'ip_entry' and 'ip_entry_alt' are deprecated. Use 'ip_v4_in1' and 'ip_v4_in2' instead.", "servers": [ { "public_name": "Achernar", "country_name": "Switzerland", ... "health": "warning", "warning": "Low packet loss", // The number of packet loss events for the server over a set time period "recent_health_events": 7, "status_log": [ { // Use date string or Unix timestamp "date": YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:SSZ, // Duration of packet loss event in seconds "duration": 61, // Amount of packet loss, 100 = 100% loss. Max loss is most useful value IMO "packet_loss": 31 }, { "date": 2026-06-04T02:35:11Z, "duration": 320, "packet_loss": 57 } ... ] }, ... ] ) A sliding window slice of events that have happened within 12 or 24 hours for each server would give a quick picture of the ongoing health of a server and allow tools (like the little bash script for gluetun I'm writing) to make better choices and spread out the load. Even just the "recent_health_events" value with a simple total of the packet loss events over a period of time would be a huge improvement. This is just a first draft proposal, any naming or implementation specifics would be in the hands of AirVPN developers. So don't get too caught up on naming or structure; this is more about voicing the lack of API information for making better server choices. EDIT: Small language fixes for readability. -
Thank you, the fingerprint wasn’t listed clearly. It’s on the download page (Signatures) and in the signature verification FAQ now. Current key: 239F D950 7903 EA9F BF7D CCF1 C6E3 3885 8A23 9AEC After importing the key: gpg --fingerprint apt@eddie.website Should match. Then gpg --verify on the .deb and .asc as usual. We’re on a new release full-time, hoping to ship next week.
