Why is the MTU on files generated from AirVPN's config generator just 1320 instead of the normal 1420 for Wireguard? Not saying that this is a bad thing, but just curious.

AirVPN should support DNS over TLS within the VPN tunnels, but currently, this is not the case. Of course, we know that DNS over TLS does not provide any benefit because all DNS traffic goes over the VPN as well (which is also stated in the service description). However, I use Linux, and when the VPN is off, I always keep DoT on. The setting is simply enabled by DNSOverTLS=yes at the resolved.conf file. Because 99% of the time I do not use VPN, I prefer to keep the DoT setting on and not disable it whenever I start a VPN session. But when deploying a VPN session from a WireGuard conf file, the DNS resolution is halted. It is possible to reach the internet through direct IP-address-based connections, but DNS resolution does not work at all. I see that the internal DNS server (10.128.0.1) does respond to the incoming requests at port 853, and I receive the responses, but that is all. Naturally, it is not possible to sniff more deeply into the content of the DNS packets with Wireshark because they are encrypted. But there is a lot of that traffic going back and forth through the tunnel. Do you have any idea what might be wrong? If the DoT setting is disabled, the DNS resolution works inside the tunnel as it should.

Eddie 2.24.6, very laggy GUI in that its slow to draw the interface, checked mono, there is no updates for it. Eddie works when its connected but the interface is slow. ( think late 90s internet and Jpg downloading effect line by line but a little faster ) Eddie 2.21.8 didn’t have this bug, it was responsive except the server list often jumped around, however when Eddie's interface was open it did stop Kubuntu panel menu from opening. Tried 2.24.6 on mint 23.3 cinnamon on a similar laptop and the bugs here as well. Thankfully I am not the only one to experience this. Eddie 2.24.6 system report is interesting, its slow at first, garbled text, CPU maxes out then eventually the report if compiled but scrolling through it causes the text to break up.

I'm not sure that age verification handling is in the best interest of the service as a whole.

@earthlight Hello! Possible explanation: the listening service does not listen to the VPN interface or is not running. More in details: when the firewall is on, the test packet is silently dropped, so the port tester does not receive a reply and throws error 110 (timeout). When the firewall is off, the attempted connection by the port tester does not time out anymore because the packet is not silently dropped, but the relative connection is reset via TCP RST because the final VPN interface port does not exist and the device kernel is configured to reset connection to non-existing ports. This is consistent with the previous description and explanation. If UPnP works fine when the VPN is off, then it is active on the listening software too. Due to how UPnP works, the listening software will bind to the physical network interface and not to the VPN interface, causing the problem. Please note that if Network Lock is not active you will also suffer traffic leaks outside the VPN tunnel because of UPnP. Please keep UPnP disabled at least on the settings of the listening software. Consider to disable it at router level too as a pre-emptive safety measure if it is not strictly necessary. A checklist you can consider to follow: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/66388-port-forwarding/?do=findComment&comment=243305 Kind regards -
I would be really keen to hear AirVPN's position on this too. It seems to me that the UK would be unable to enforce any fines on a non-UK company for not complying with age verification. Presumably they'd be able to force UK ISPs to block VPN companies websites, but beyond that I don't see what else is in their power to do.

port forwarding has been working completely fine since I started using airvpn and yesterday it suddenly stopped working while I was trying to connect a friend to my game server in Hytale (it worked fine with this game before I don't believe it's the cause). canyouseemee says iIcan't be found. I have not been able to fix it. I've looked at countless forum posts and no one seems to have had my exact issue. Went to bed and thought maybe it'll fix itself, nope. I usually like to fix these things myself but after turning my firewall off, checking if any permissions changed, checking my airvpn settings, making a NEW port, resetting my router as well as turning it off and on a bunch, I don't know what else to try Like I mentioned in the title the error changed to 111 when I turned my firewall off. Edit: I forgot to mention UPnP is actually turned on on my Router and working fine when I turn my VPN off. Any help would be appreciated thank you! -
Hi there, it seems in the UK it is looking more and more likely that VPN's will need to be age verified to be used. Information on this can be found here. Does AirVPN plan on following this guidance and adding age verification? Also, has there been any consideration towards this by the AirVPN team? I am aware the bill has not yet fully made it through government, but I am curious at what actions AirVPN will take to either comply or not-comply with the possible demands. I am not all that worried about this, just really curious on what other people's takes are, and if AirVPN has any plans towards this. Thanks for reading

Thanks for the quick and helpful answer! After some more testing, it seems everything is actually working fine, other users can reach me and browse my shares, I just can't reach myself. Hopefully this can help others in the same situation in the future

Tomorrow I will test on a fresh Archlinux install if I can reproduce the problem. But I am using a symlink, for sure. -
@p1pb0y Hello! We can reach your software from the Internet on the IP address you're currently connected to, port 60798, i.e. your slskd receives the packet and replies accordingly. So your port forwarding configuration, firewall configuration and slskd bind/port setting are all fine and working properly. The logged error must have a cause unrelated to AirVPN port forwarding and also unrelated to the container's firewall. Kind regards

Hello good people, hope can you help me think why I'm not getting port forwarding to work on the slskd soulseek client (https://github.com/slskd/slskd/) I am running it in docker alongside gluetun. I am using the same setup for a working port forwarding with qbt, so I know it is possible FWIW I am using wireguard. I have: Configured forwarded port 60798 in airvpn dashboard (also forwarded 60799, as some clients needs this, but probably not slskd) Set up the correct listering port in slskd application Opened the gluetun firewall (FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS) for 60798 and 607999 Verified that the port 60798 is open using "test open" - TCP on ipv4 is open on 82.102.27.195 (Camelopardalis) Alas: The slskd logs says it is failing to communicate with my user on 82.102.27.195:60798. I have checked the other posts on the forum, and slskd does not have a NAT/PMP option to toggle. Is there anything else I am not thinking about? Or does this narrow it down to slskd? Thanks!

Hello people, I've used Eddie on my desktop and laptop to seed private trackers, so I have opened a port in the client area of AirVPN. This I have done a few months back, and has run fine on both devices. However, today I noticed my torrent client was reporting some error, which turned out to be something with my connection. I found that somehow the port I have been using for months isn't open anymore, while nothing in the client area has changed. The weird thing is that on both devices, my desktop and laptop, I have this issue. I have tried the basics like reinstalling Eddie, reopening the port and that kind of stuff. None of those have fixed it, so I was hoping I'd find an answer here. Thank you! I provided a screenshot of the test results when connected with Eddie. -
their security policy is not trusted, because they have servers in Russia, and AirVPN is fully trusted.

Hm? You can use it like that? Awesome! Then please use it like so, no need for AirVPN to implement it.

@stallard Hello! At least one error is visible: remote port number differs from local port number. Due to how a torrent program works you must configure matching remote and local ports (for additional details please read the FAQ). Just delete the "local" field of your remote port in your AirVPN account port panel, adjust qBittorrent listening port accordingly, re-start both VPN connection and qBittorrent and follow this checklist: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/66388-port-forwarding/?tab=comments#comment-243305 Additional tips for the errors you get: Error 111 (connection refused): the connection has been actively reset by the destination system (the client, in this case your system) through a TCP RST Error 110: no reply from the destination system (client), the sent packet has been silently dropped Further information on p2p programs: https://airvpn.org/faq/p2p/ Kind regards

Hi All, I have qbittorrent on TrueNAS, run by an arr stack. Qbittorrent seems to upload/seed ok, until I tried a private tracker- and they indicate my port is closed. And I have no leechers, so I suppose that's true. So I decided to test, with the results below. Seems my port is actually closed? Odd that some torrents are seeding. Kind of lost now... the tracker list in qBit says that the trackers are working- but there are 0 peers. Does this make any sense to anyone? Thanks for any tips...I'm not even sure if I'm asking the right questions.

Hello AirVPN, Goodbye NordVPN :D
Glidos replied to catman7's topic in Other VPN competitors or features
Just did a little better with a New York server: 181.03 down 48.10 up ... and then later 300Mbps in a speed test and a torrent hit 30MBps. Hmmm! -
Hello AirVPN, Goodbye NordVPN :D
Glidos replied to catman7's topic in Other VPN competitors or features
That's really interesting. I wonder why I cannot achieve such speeds. I'm connecting from the UK. I've experimented with several different servers. 125Mbps down is the best I've seen from AirVPN so far. Currently I'm connected via the Chamukuy server in Canada. I'm getting 43.07 down, 69.45 up (Mbps). I'm using Openvpn UDP, which I know has overhead, but I was using that with Nord (and with Ivacy back a while). My fibre connection gives me a reliable simetric 600Mbps. -
Found the issue, it seems I have changed the network zone, so changed destionation zone from Internal to DMZ and that fixed it.

Hello AirVPN, Goodbye NordVPN :D
fsy replied to catman7's topic in Other VPN competitors or features
Uhm, 35 MBps (280 Mbit/s) is no match for airvpn : the top users routinely exceed it, if you check the stats you'll see ... with my ISP off peak I can beat 800 Mbit/s (100 MBps) on my Gbit line in northern Europe and when in the US ... although I have no comparison to offer with Nord I'm already at 90% of my line - in real life I can never beat 850-900 Mbit/s without vpn, so.. -
I have synology DSM6 1. Synology quickconnect seems to have issue (message = error, check network or DNS) with UDP now, so i have to generate .ovpn file with TCP instead. And now quickconnect works. Who knows ?!?! 2. I have never toggled "Separate keys/certs from .ovpn file" button in the past but just the .ovpn file. Everything went fine as long as i specify "tls-auth, for 2.3" (not tls-crypt or >2.3). But now the config generator generate different .ovpn file and I have the message ".ovpn files contains invalid parameters". So I have to replace lines with data-ciphers and data-ciphers-fallback by one single line with "cipher AES-256-CBC". It's the same result than to do "set the "OpenVPN profile" combo box to "2.4"" but it's not natural to choose 2.3 on the left side and 2.4 on right side of the page... My two cents
-
thanx for useful info. TrustTunnel is not a proxy, just new VPN protocol, and if i run it, then close and start Eddie, my speed increases (in Eddie) from 60Mb to peak 600Mb. without starting TrustTunnel i get max download speed 60Mb with WG activated. SSL and SSH gives me 200-300Mb, but only 8-9Mb of upload speed (due to ISP shaping)

Hi, this is weird: $ ls -l /etc/resolv.conf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 22 janv. 20:03 /etc/resolv.conf -> ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf It is indeed a link. So Eddie does not detect it correctly?
