UK Infrastructure upgrade to 10 Gbit/s full duplex

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 10:58:04 +0000

Hello! We are very pleased to inform you that we are taking the necessary steps to completely renovate our infrastructure in the United Kingdom. The current servers will be dismissed and replaced by six 10 Gbit/s servers with newer and much more powerful hardware. Each 10 Gbit/s server will be connected to a full duplex 10 Gbit/s dedicated line and port. Each new server replaces 2.5 current 1 Gbit/s servers in order to increase remarkably the available bandwidth per connected client. At the end of the upgrade, UK will offer a theoretical peak of 60 Gbit/s (full duplex) instead of the current 15 Gbit/s, through adequately powerful servers. According to our plan, three servers will be located in London and three in Manchester. The new servers will start operations around 19-22 February 2026. Current 1 Gbit/s servers will cease operations on the night between 28 February and 01 March (UTC). Any plan changes and/or delays will be communicated promptly. UPDATE 2026-02-24: the servers are almost ready and will be available not later than 2026-02-25 (UTC). Because of the unforeseen delay, we are considering to extend the current 1 Gbit/s UK servers operations up to the end of March 2026. UPDATE 2026-02-25: all the new servers are operational and the old servers will be decommissioned on 2026-02-28 (UTC). Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 preview available

Fri, 28 Nov 2025 16:35:47 +0000

Hello! We're very glad to announce that Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 preview is available 2026-11-28: Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 Beta 1 is available 2026-01-14: Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 Beta 2 is available 2026-03-04: Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 Beta 3 is available 2026-03-27: Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 Release Candidate 1 is available This is a major update: for the first time Eddie Android edition features AmneziaWG complete support. Eddie Android edition is a fully integrated with AirVPN, free and open source client allowing comfortable connections to AirVPN servers and generic VPN servers offering compatible protocols. Eddie 4.0.0 aims primarily at adding, besides the already available OpenVPN and WireGuard, a thorough and comfortable AmneziaWG support. AmneziaWG is a free and open source fork of WireGuard by Amnezia inheriting the architectural simplicity and high performance of the original implementation, but eliminating the identifiable network signatures that make WireGuard easily detectable by Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) systems. It can operate in several different ways, including a fallback, "compatibility mode" with WireGuard featuring anyway various obfuscation techniques. What's new in Eddie 4.0.0 AmneziaWG support Amnezia WireGuard API stronger anti-blocking logic: ability to log in to the service and download AirVPN infrastructure and user data while connected through a profile with a specific option on the left pane ability to read and use local user data when bootstrap servers are unreachable CPS packets database of 30+ real websites, currently allowing accurate QUIC + HTTP/3 traffic mimicry to and from real web sites through AmneziaWG CPS. Each entry is easily selectable and identified by a clear label support for wrapping both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic over an IPv6 tunnel with WireGuard and AmneziaWG (previously available only with OpenVPN) new "Open with..." option on top of the usual "Share" (now renamed "Export") option to manage and export comfortably generated profiles on any Android version with any suitable application updated AmneziaWG parameters allowed ranges support of latest AmneziaWG padding features vastly improved NetworkMonitor and Tile Service updated OpenSSL, OpenVPN3-AirVPN and WireGuard libraries full compatibility from Android 5.1 to Android 16, including Android TV bug fixes see the complete changelog below AmneziaWG overview From the official documentation: https://docs.amnezia.org/documentation/amnezia-wg AmneziaWG offers: Dynamic Headers for All Packet Types (compatibility with WireGuard: YES) During tunnel initialization, the library generates a set of random constants applied to each of the four WireGuard packet formats: Init, Response, Data, Under‑Load. These constants: As a result, no two clients have identical headers, making it impossible to write a universal DPI rule. Replace predictable WireGuard packet identifiers; Shift offsets of Version/Type fields; Modify reserved bits. Handshake Length Randomization and message padding (compatibility with WireGuard: NO) In WireGuard, the Init packet is exactly 148 bytes, and the Response packet is exactly 92 bytes. AmneziaWG adds message paddings: S1: int - padding of handshake initial message S2: int - padding of handshake response message S3: int - padding of handshake cookie message S4: int - padding of transport messages Offsets of the remaining fields are automatically adjusted, and MAC tags are recalculated accordingly. In order to keep backward compatibility with WireGuard, S1, S2, S3 and S4 must be set to 0. Obfuscation Packets I1-I5 (Signature Chain) & CPS (Custom Protocol Signature) (compatibility with WireGuard: partial, with fallback) Before initiating a "special" handshake (every 120 seconds), the client may send up to five different UDP packets fully described by the user in the CPS format. In this way AmneziaWG can mimic perfectly QUIC, DNS and other protocols adding powerful methods to circumvent blocks. QUIC is particularly interesting as HTTP/3 is built on it and currently, from Chrome and other compatible browsers, 50% of traffic to/from Google is QUIC traffic. Therefore, blocking QUIC may have major disruptions for any ISP. Note that a CPS database of 30+ real web sites is available in Eddie Android edition: you can activate CPS mimicking traffic to real web sites with a tap. Eddie will take care to compile properly Amnezia's In parameters for accurate mimicry. Junk‑train (Jc) (compatibility with WireGuard: YES) Immediately following the sequence of I-packets, a series Jc of pseudorandom packets with lengths varying between Jmin and Jmax is sent. These packets blur the timing and size profile of the session start, significantly complicating handshake detection. Under‑Load Packet (compatibility with WireGuard: YES) In WireGuard, a special keep-alive packet (“Under-Load”) is used to bypass NAT timeouts. AmneziaWG replaces its fixed header with a randomized one, the value of which can be set manually. This prevents DPI from filtering short ping packets, ensuring stable tunnel connections, especially on mobile networks. How to use Eddie with AmneziaWG To enable AmneziaWG mode, just tap the connection mode available in the main and other views. It will rotate between WireGuard, AmneziaWG and OpenVPN. Set it to AmneziaWG. In its default AmneziaWG mode, Eddie will use all the possible obfuscation, except protocol mimicking, that keeps WireGuard compatibility, thus allowing connections to AirVPN servers. The default settings choice was possible thanks to the invaluable support of persons living in countries where VPN blocks are widespread. Such settings have been tested as working and capable to bypass the current blocking methods in various countries. You may consider to modify them if they are ineffective to bypass "your" specific blocks. In Settings > Advanced, you will find, at the bottom of the page, a new "Custom Amnezia WG directives" item. By tapping it you will summon a dialog that will let you customize any possible AmneziaWG parameter. You can maintain backward compatibility with WireGuard in the dialog WireGuard section, or enable the full AmneziaWG support in the Amnezia section, which is not compatible (at the moment) with AirVPN WireGuard servers. This mode will be mostly valuable in a not distant future, when AirVPN servers will start to support AmneziaWG natively. You may also enable QUIC or DNS mimicking for additional obfuscation efficacy. In order to maintain WireGuard backward compatibility, with or without QUIC or DNS mimicking, you must set: S1 = S2 = S3 = S4 = 0 Hn ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4} H1 ≠ H2 ≠ H3 ≠ H4 Furthermore, do not exceed the valid limit of the J parameters (anyway Eddie will not let you do it). In this preview version, Eddie's formal control of the input data is based on the following document. We strongly recommend you read it if you need to modify manually parameters: https://github.com/amnezia-vpn/amneziawg-linux-kernel-module?tab=readme-ov-file#configuration Custom Protocol Signature with database included Working in AmneziaWG mode, Eddie implements QUIC and DNS mimicry and obfuscation packets for each specific "I" parameter (by using the corresponding "Generate" button). You can enable them with a tap on the proper buttons. You may mimic QUIC and DNS even to connect to WireGuard based servers. Please do not modify In parameters if you don't know exactly what you're doing. Eddie's CPS database is available at your fingertip for accurate mimicry of traffic to and from real web sites using HTTP/3 (other protocols may be added in the future), so you don't need to look for and enter specific sequences. Settings > Advanced > Custom AmneziaWG directives > Enable CPS > Presets > select the web site whose traffic must be imitated . Currently, you can find a database that contains more than 30 actual packet signatures and sequences of real web sites. Select one and Eddie will adjust all the parameters automatically and will use them in the next AmneziaWG connection. When you enable QUIC mimicking and you maintain WireGuard backward compatibility, you add a powerful tool against blocks, because the first packets will be actual QUIC packets. AmneziaWG will fall back to WireGuard compatibility very soon. However, when DPI and SPI tools, and demultiplexers in general, identify the initial QUIC flow, most of them will be unable to detect a WireGuard flow for several minutes. This has been tested thoroughly with deep packet inspection on Linux and FreeBSD based machines by AirVPN staff. Therefore, in different blocking scenarios the QUIC mimicry increases likelihood of successful block bypass. NOTE: the same does not happen with DNS mimicry. In this case DPI / SPI tools identify the stream initially as DNS, but are much quicker (just in a few dozens of packets) to identify the stream as WireGuard's, after the initial DNS identification. How to use Eddie in network where the "bootstrap" servers can not be reached Eddie downloads user and infrastructure data, essential to use the service, from special "bootstrap servers" through an encrypted flow inside HTTP. If the bootstrap servers are blocked or the underlying protocol to port 80 is filtered out, Eddie is unable to proceed. Starting from this Eddie 4 version, the ability to retrieve such data locally has been added. Whenever bootstrap servers are unreachable, Eddie can read the latest available local data to connect to a VPN server. Once connected the bootstrap servers are again reachable and the local data are immediately updated for future usage. The local data remain valid as long as you don't need to change user. On top of all of the above, Eddie can now retrieve such data through the login procedure that now can be started even when a connection to a VPN server was previously established via a profile. Therefore, when you are in a restrictive network that blocks access to bootstrap servers, you can connect through a profile generated by AirVPN web site Configuration Generator. After this first connection, log your account in to the service by selecting the specific option on the left pane, enter your AirVPN account credentials as usual and make sure that Remember me checkbox is ticked: Eddie will download all the necessary files and store them locally. This procedure is "once and for all", at least as long as you don't need to change account. After this initial connection, Eddie will be able to log your account in to the infrastructure, retrieve servers data and establish connections without profiles and without bootstrap servers, offering again full AirVPN integration even when bootstrap servers are unreachable. Only If you change account you must repeat the procedure. New: "Open with..." option added to "Export" option Different Android versions allow management of files with different restrictions. Different apps may support different intents on specific Android versions. To enlarge total compatibility, now Eddie offers two different options to export and manage files, including generated profiles. You will find the usual "Share" option (note: now renamed into "Export") coupled with a new "Open with..." option. Some apps support only one intent, other apps only specific intents on specific Android versions, and so on. By adding this option Eddie enlarges considerably the amount of apps you will be able to open and/or share files with.

Now you can accept or deny incoming, outgoing or both ICMP-echo packets, and independently you can permit or forbid IPv6 NDP, which is based on ICMPv6. The new options supported by Hummingbird (please check the readme file for additional details) are: --allow-ping --allow-ipv6ndp Apple ARM based systems version is now C++20 compliant (required by Sequoia) Important note for high speed line users Because of some architectural specifications and implementation in macOS Hummingbird may warn the user about shortage of buffer space, specifically when connected with the UDP. This condition is signaled by Hummingbird with the below messages in the log: UDP send exception: send: No buffer space available ERROR: NETWORK_SEND_ERROR The error is caused by the maximum network sockets size set in macOS, a value usually small and unsuited for modern high speed networks. The solution consists in increasing the maximum allowed size for socket buffers and, in case the problem persists, the number of mbuf clusters. The procedure is simple, please find out all the details in the manual. Open the README.md file with any viewer and consult the "Note on macOS and UDP" section.

Linux: AirVPN Suite 2.0.0 available

Fri, 25 Jul 2025 08:34:54 +0000

Hello! We're very glad to announce that AirVPN Suite 2.0.0 Release is available. Special thanks to the outstanding community beta testers whose continued support in over a year and a half has been invaluable and decisive to find out and address several, insidious bugs. Dedicated community forum here: https://airvpn.org/forums/forum/47-airvpn-suite/ AirVPN Suite 2.0.0 introduces AirVPN's exclusive per app traffic splitting system, bug fixes, revised code, WireGuard support, and the latest OpenVPN3-AirVPN 3.12 library. Please see the respective changelogs for a complete list of changes for each component of the suite. The 2.0.0 Suite includes: Bluetit: lightweight, ultra-fast D-Bus controlled system daemon providing full connectivity and integration to AirVPN servers, or generic OpenVPN and WireGuard servers. Bluetit can also enforce Network Lock and/or connect the system to AirVPN during the bootstrap Goldcrest: Bluetit client, allowing full integration with AirVPN servers, users, keys, profiles as well as generic OpenVPN and WireGuard servers Hummingbird: lightweight and standalone binary for generic OpenVPN and WireGuard server connections Cuckoo: traffic split manager, granting full access and functionality to AirVPN's traffic split infrastructure airsu: a "run and forget" tool to automatically set and enable the user environment for the X.Org or Wayland based ecosystem without any user input WireGuard support WireGuard support is now available in Bluetit and Hummingbird. OpenVPN or WireGuard selection is controlled by Bluetit run control file option airvpntype or by Goldcrest option -f (short for --air-vpn-type). Possible values: openvpn, wireguard. New 2.0.0 default: wireguard. Bluetit run control file (/etc/airvpn/bluetit.rc) option: airvpntype: (string) VPN type to be used for AirVPN connections. Possible values: wireguard, openvpn. Default: wireguard Goldcrest option: --air-vpn-type, -f : VPN type for AirVPN connection Suspend and resume services for systemd based systems For your comfort, the installation script can create suspend and resume services in systemd based systems, according to your preferences. allowing a more proper management of VPN connections when the system is suspended and resumed. The network connection detection code has also been rewritten to provide more appropriate behavior. Asynchronous mode A new asynchronous mode (off by default) is supported by Bluetit and Goldcrest, allowing asynchronous connections. Network Lock can be used accordingly in asynchronous connections. Please consult the readme.md file included in every tarball for more information and details. Word completion on bash and zsh Auto completion is now available by pressing the TAB key when entering any Goldcrest or Hummingbird option and filename on a bash or zsh interpreter. Auto completion files are installed automatically by the installation script. AirVPN's VPN traffic splitting AirVPN Suite version 2.0.0 introduces traffic splitting by using a dedicated network namespace. The VPN traffic is carried out in the default (main) namespace, ensuring all system data and traffic to be encrypted into the VPN tunnel by default. No clear and unencrypted data are allowed to pass through the default namespace. Any non-tunneled network traffic must be explicitly requested by an authorized user with the right to run cuckoo, the AirVPN traffic split manager tool. AirVPN's traffic splitting is managed by Bluetit and configured through run control directives. The system has been created in order to minimize any tedious or extensive configuration, even to the minimal point of telling Bluetit to enable traffic splitting with no other setting. In order to enable and control AirVPN's traffic splitting, the below new run control directives for /etc/airvpn/bluetit.rc have been implemented: allowtrafficsplitting: (on/off) enable or disable traffic splitting. Default: off trafficsplitnamespace: (string) name of Linux network namespace dedicated to traffic splitting. Default: aircuckoo trafficsplitinterface: (string) name of the physical network interface to be used for traffic splitting. All the unencrypted and out of the tunnel data will pass through the specified network device/interface. In case this directive is not used and unspecified, Bluetit will automatically use the main network interface of the system and connected to the default gateway. Default: unspecified trafficsplitnamespaceinterface: (string) name of the virtual network interface to be associated to the Linux network namespace dedicated to traffic splitting. Default: ckveth0 trafficsplitipv4: (IPv4 address|auto) IPv4 address of the virtual network interface used for traffic splitting. In case it is set to 'auto', Bluetit will try to automatically assign an unused IPv4 address belonging to the system's host sub-network (/24) Default: auto trafficsplitipv6: (IPv6 address|auto) IPv6 address of the virtual network interface used for traffic splitting. In case it is set to 'auto', Bluetit will try to automatically assign an unused IPv6 address belonging to the system's host sub-network (/64) Default: auto trafficsplitfirewall: (on/off) enable or disable the firewall in Linux network namespace dedicated to traffic splitting. The firewall is set up with a minimal rule set for a very basic security model. Default: off AirVPN's traffic splitting is designed in order to minimize any further configuration from the system administrator. To actually enable traffic splitting, it is just needed to set "allowtrafficsplitting" directive to "on" and Bluetit will configure the traffic split namespace with the default options as explained above. When needed, the system administrator can finely tune the traffic splitting service by using the above directives. Power and limitations The adopted solution offers a remarkable security bonus in terms of isolation. For example, it gets rid of the dangerous DNS "leaks in" typical of cgroups based traffic splitting solutions. However, the dedicated namespace needs an exclusive IP address. If the system is behind a NAT (connected to a home router for example) this is not a problem, but if the system is not behind any NAT, i.e. it is assigned directly a public IP address, you will need another public IP address for the network namespace dedicated to traffic splitting. You will need to manually set the other public IP address on the trafficsplitipv4 or trafficsplitipv6 directive as the guessing abilities of Bluetit may work only within a private subnet. Please keep this limitation in mind especially if you want to run the Suite with per app traffic splitting on a dedicated or virtual server in some datacenter, as they are most of the times NOT behind any NAT. Introducing Cuckoo, the AirVPN traffic splitting manager tool To generate out of the tunnel traffic, any application software must be run inside the "traffic split" namespace by using the dedicated traffic split tool cuckoo which can be run by users belonging to the airvpn group only. It cannot be used by the superuser. The usage is documented in the manual and on the inline help. The traffic split namespace uses its own routing, network channels and system DNS. It will not interfere or communicate in any way with the default namespace using its own encrypted tunnel. Programs started with cuckoo are regular Linux processes and, as such, can be managed (stopped, interrupted, paused, terminated and killed) by using the usual process control tools. The programs started by cuckoo are assigned to the user who started cuckoo. As a final note, in order to work properly, the following permissions must be granted to cuckoo and they are always checked at each run. Owner: root Group: airvpn Permissions: -rwsr-xr-x (owner can read, write, execute and setuid; group can read and execute, others can read and execute) Special note for snap packages users Snap is a controversial, locking-in package management system developed by Canonical and praised by Microsoft. It packages applications as snaps, which are self-contained units that include all necessary dependencies and run in a sandboxed environment in its default namespace. Therefore, "snap" applications will bypass the order by the system via Cuckoo to have an application running in one specific namespace created for reverse traffic splitting. As a result, snap applications will jettison the Suite's reverse traffic splitting feature. Currently, you must avoid snap packages of those applications whose traffic must flow outside the VPN tunnel. The issue is particularly relevant ever since Ubuntu migrated certain packages exclusively to Snap, such as Chromium and Firefox. At the moment it is still possible to eradicate snap from various distributions, including Ubuntu, quickly. Special note for firewalld users Please read here, it's very important: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/70164-linux-network-lock-and-firewalld/ AirVPN Switch User Tool Airsu Running an application in a graphical environment requires a user having a local environment properly set, in particular variables and access to specific sockets or cookies. They are usually set at the moment of graphical login, while they may not be properly set in case a user logged in by using the system tool su. In this specific case the user will not probably be allowed to access the graphical environment, so any GUI application will not start. AirVPN’s airsu is used for this specific purpose and configures the user environment to the current X.Org (X11) or Wayland based manager, thus allowing access to GUI applications when run through cuckoo. Note on GUI software and Web Browsers Complete compatibility with both X11 and Wayland based environments has been implemented. Because of the specific Linux architecture and namespaces, some applications may need to specify the graphical environment in order to start and use the currently selected window manager on an X.Org (X11) or Wayland based habitat. Cuckoo can automatically do this by “injecting” predefined options to some preset applications, in particular those based on the chromium engines, most of them being web browsers. To see the list of predefined applications, please start cuckoo with --list-preset-apps option. When running an application with cuckoo, the user should make sure to actually start a new instance. This is usually granted by starting an application from the command line (such as running it with cuckoo). By starting an application from the desktop environment this may not happen.

Metallah server withdrawal announcement (US)

Sun, 20 Jul 2025 08:27:27 +0000

Hello! We're sorry to inform you that due to sloppy support by the datacenter provider (Racklot) we have decommissioned the server Metallah. Metallah went down on June the 18th, 2025, because IP addresses were null-routed. After more than a month, in spite of various contacts and solicitations, Racklot still fails to restore the routing. Our patience is over and we're acting accordingly. This was the last server still not supporting IPv6 (again for the laziness and the sloppy behavior of Racklot), so we finally have IPv6 support on every and each server. Kind regards
