Hello! The AirVPN integration is kindly maintained by GlueTun developer. In brief, servers information is retrieved from the servers,json file which is updated several times a year. When starting up, Gluetun merges the hardcoded list and the contents of servers.json, preferring newer data and including any custom entries marked to be kept. For more details and a more accurate description please see here: https://deepwiki.com/qdm12/gluetun/6-server-management At this moment, while we're writing this message, the servers in Amsterdam have not yet been added. You can wait for the next update, or you may add them manually, by abiding to the json format. Alternatively you can point directly, through the proper environment variable, to the correct entry-IP address of the server you wish to connect to. In such cases you find all the information you need on the server status page https://airvpn.org/status and by generating a configuration file with the Configuration Generator. Here's an example for Vindemiatrix, only for WireGuard connections. This sub-block must be inserted in the correct position inside the airvpn block: study the file structure to quickly understand. Make sure to edit the file while no container is running. { "vpn": "wireguard", "country": "Netherlands", "region": "Europe", "city": "Amsterdam", "server_name": "Vindemiatrix", "hostname": "nl3.vpn.airdns.org", "wgpubkey": "PyLCXAQT8KkM4T+dUsOQfn+Ub3pGxfGlxkIApuig+hk=", "keep": true, "ips": [ "94.228.209.212" ] }, You then need to restart the container(s) in order to merge the current list with the edited one. The "Keep": true line/flag (inside the server definition) ensures that the server will not be wiped out if you rebuild the server list. Kind regards

Incredibly slow speed on unraid
AceBoyden replied to AceBoyden's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Yes i have tried multiple and different mtu's again. with a different vpn i get expected 30-40MBps now i get about 203KB/s with airvpn, never had issues for a year. do you have a recommended mtu? -
Three new 10 Gbit/s servers available (CA)
4eNJaeEnp9oF replied to Staff's topic in News and Announcement
Congratulations on the launch. This is great news for CA which has had most of its 2 Gbit/s servers pretty saturated during peak hours. Hopefully the ghost of Wurren does not come back to haunt us. -

This is awesome. I think have a "problem" with the API by Gluetun regarding filtering the servers to Amsterdam. It doesn't recognize Amsterdam as an available endpoint.

Ok Download / Slow upload
Hypertext1071 replied to PotatoVeggie's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
What application are you using the VPN with? Also, what is the max upload speed you can currently get? (Just curious I'm not sure if I will be able to help) - Yesterday

Hello! Hold on @Tech Jedi Alex, you hit the mark. You were just misled by this: 0777 is for a directory, but for data files the default is 0666, here's why the user ends up with 644: For the reader, if the umask is 022, the newly created file by root will get 644 (rw-r--r--) (the complement of 666 with 022 in octal) which causes the first problem. So that's why /sbin/bluetit doesn't have x even though it does in the extracted package. It doesn't matter that the original bluetit file has 755, the umask starts from 666. cp in the original script lacks the -p option so this problem should get resolved by your change with install (it should be solved even by adding "-p" to the cp command, or an additional chmod of course). It looks like a long time installation script issue that went always and strangely unnoticed. Noted down for a fix in the next release or a package hot fix, we'll see. Apparently there is another problem too but maybe it's not related to Suite's installation, we'll keep following the thread. Kind regards -
More Granular Per-App / Per-IP Routing Options
Tech Jedi Alex replied to Zerema's topic in General & Suggestions
In some software even implemented. If you're on Linux, grab the AirVPN Suite shipping Cuckoo which can do that. For others like Eddie, nothing official has been said about it yet. But it's requested quite often, so you're not alone. -

Incredibly slow speed on unraid
Tech Jedi Alex replied to AceBoyden's topic in Troubleshooting and Problems
Did you try another reboot? -
Suggests a change on your end, even if not changed by you. Wouldn't put it past Windows. Anyway, for Windows I usually recommend optimizing the network stack based on your connection. I always refer to SpeedGuide's TCP Optimizer for this, it's a tool which doesn't need to be installed, just ran as admin. In the General Settings tab, you set the slider to your internet's connection speed and select your network interface in the middle (the active one is generally chosen automatically, but if you use both WiFi and ethernet, both may be set this way in succession). In the bottom right you select Optimal, then click the Apply changes button. A reboot later and you may or may not be surprised at how much quicker your connection is.

What is this dependency error? Can you share the unit files, please? I suspect something like (some-network-manager)-wait-online.service as a transitive dependency, not something the units themselves depend on. systemctl cat bitcoind.service litd.service In any case, I suspect that cping all those files is not the way for you specifically to go here as all manner of permissions somehow get manipulated on the way. Cuckoo in particular will not work without setuid which I suspect is missing, so all trafficsplit* options won't work. It's probably better to rewrite this whole script using install instead of cp which can set owner, group and modes on creation, and which should exist everywhere as well as it's a coreutil. .. which I just did. It's untested, but I did at least run it through shellcheck with no major errors and warning that are not there in the existing code also. It should work. install.sh The script now first creates user and group, then installs the files and starts the service only at the very end. Download it, replace it in the unpacked tar, then run it as usual. Privileged, of course. 2026-01-08 – Script updated. The user/group add is now actually done first, after the user accepts the installation. The install for cuckoo will otherwise fail and be missing because a group airvpn doesn't exist at this point (since set -e is not set, the script will simply continue).

Hello AirVPN team and community, First of all, thank you for maintaining a VPN service that clearly prioritizes privacy, transparency, and user control. I appreciate the technical depth AirVPN provides compared to many mainstream VPNs. I’d like to suggest a possible enhancement: more granular routing controls, such as per-application or per-IP split tunneling options that can be managed more easily from the client interface. Some potential use cases like Allowing specific applications or local services, Routing selected apps or IP ranges and Simplifying advanced routing rules for users who are comfortable with networking but want a clearer UI I understand that many of these configurations are already possible through advanced setups and manual routing, but a more accessible interface could make these features easier to manage without reducing flexibility. I’m interested to hear what other users think and whether something like this is already planned or under consideration. Thank you for your time and for the continued development of AirVPN.

Hello! We're very glad to inform you that three new 10 Gbit/s full duplex servers located in Toronto (Ontario), Canada, are available: Castula, Chamukuy and Elgafar. The AirVPN client will show automatically the new servers; if you use any other OpenVPN or WireGuard client you can generate all the files to access them through our configuration/certificates/key generator (menu "Client Area"->"Config generator"). The servers accept connections on ports 53, 80, 443, 1194, 2018 UDP and TCP for OpenVPN and ports 1637, 47107 and 51820 UDP for WireGuard. They support OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH, TLS 1.3, OpenVPN tls-crypt and WireGuard. Full IPv6 support is included as well. As usual no traffic limits, no logs, no discrimination on protocols and hardened security against various attacks with separate entry and exit-IP addresses. You can check the status as usual in our real time servers monitor : https://airvpn.org/servers/Castula https://airvpn.org/servers/Chamukuy https://airvpn.org/servers/Elgafar/ Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or issue. Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

Hello! My unraid server has been going for a good whille and i had to reboot it. The vpn connection worked fined for a week ish and had about 30-30MBps in download. But all of a sudden i see that max i get is 212KB/s. I've read a lot about the mtu and that you have to change it? i have tried everthing from 1320 to 1420 and the best i got was 1MB/s with 1411. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Starting this month, my Windows connection to a US server has been limited to just 1 Mbps, while my MacBook achieves 200 Mbps. Both devices connect to the same server using the same protocol(OpenVPN) and port, with all settings left at their defaults. Can you offer any suggestions on how to resolve this issue? I'm using the latest version of Eddie. -
See attached file with the requested info. The other services I referred to are: bitcoind.service and litd.service, both created by myself, and before installing AirVPN they were always working fine. After having problems with AirVPN these services won't automatically start on boot-up, with a missing dependency error. Output listing of AirVPN install.txt - Last week

More clarity on server load & performance indicators
Tech Jedi Alex replied to Zerema's topic in General & Suggestions
How can the load percentage be conveyed even clearer in your opinion? Those are highly subjective things depending on your setup, and I don't want to see them as data points in a server overview showing factual data valid for everyone the same way. Load (= bandwidth usage), number of clients and RTT between the servers are factual data valid for everyone, whereas your own latency and "connection quality metrics" are the result of your client's configuration, connection type and its config, ISP, routes, etcetc. I mean, what is even the definition of "connection quality" in your own words? Preferably something that is valid for you, me and the random reader of this thread at the same time. -
Can you provide the full output of the script after running it? The complete bluetit.rc sans login credentials would be nice. New files will get the mode 0777 - 0022 = 0755 which is rwxr-xr-x. That's the purpose of the umask. I don't quite get where the executable permission is stripped, though. Since it's simply copied it must be during file creation in /usr. Do state which services you mean. I suspect the opposite: If you don't have an airvpn user after installation and no D-Bus files, something isn't quite right. See my answer to 1) above. And make sure you're root or at least installing in a privileged shell via sudo or run0 --empower.

Hi, I have my wireguard keys in a docker compose. I was just wondering if there is a way to refresh the wireguard keys. how do i do that please? thx
-
Well, if more and more stuff is moving to Codeberg, more and more script kiddies are trying their luck with, well, automated attack scripts against Codeberg. Seems like someone around here is egoistical enough to not care what their actions are causing. (It may sound like I mean you, but I mean some random VPN user, obviously) Also, interesting, I can confirm that I get a 403 via browser and cURL but the route checker gets a 200 for the same URI.

Quit Eddie and reopen, try a connection, then provide a system report..

Joyn.de from AirVPN servers
Tech Jedi Alex replied to IdrisAdams's topic in Blocked websites warning
Your best bet might be to request a reroute over the DE rerouting server. Kindly open a support request and give a few URLs to blocked content. -

I’d love to see more detailed performance indicators in the server list as clearer real-time load, latency trends, or connection quality metrics. This would help users choose the best server for their needs without trial and error. Has this been discussed before? Would appreciate feedback from others on what metrics you find most useful.

Apologies for my late response... The strange behaviour of AirVPN was that although the bluetit.service failed, the VPN tunnel still worked, so I left it running for a while. Then, when I wanted to install another package, it wouldn't install because of a setting in bluetit.rc (i.e. cipher=etc). At that point (yesterday) I decided to uninstall AirVPN again and give it another try. I used the uninstall script included in the AirVPN package. Then I did a fresh reinstall (using the 'sh ./install.sh' script), and initially it seemed to work well: the bluetit service started w/o the DBus error, and the vpn tunnel (tun0) was showing up. However, after rebooting again, and checking the bluetit.service status again, it showed as active, but with a airvpn login failure. In hindsight I believe I may have made a mistake during the previous installation, since I now noticed in the README.md document that I have to install using command 'sh ./install.sh', whereas previously I may have done './install.sh' only. However, there are still a few issues: 1) During installation it doesn't ask to create a airvpn-user (and it doesn't exist: I checked tht using the getent command as suggested). 2) After rebooting again, and checking the IP address, it came back with an IP-address in my home country, whereas I had set the forbidquickhomecountry=yet in bluetit.rc. 3) As suggested, I also ran command 'su -c umask', and it showed outpout 0022 (I have no idea what that means...). 4) I have a few other services that were set to automatically start (i.e. enabled), but now I have to start them manually after booting up. I have reason to believ that this is caused by AirVPN. 5) The command 'systemctl list-unit-files --type=service --all dbus*' didn't show any airvpn entries. I suspect that the uninstall procedure may not have been thorough enough, leaving some old airvpn settings active somewhere?
