While connecting to a few Singapore nodes I'm also noticing that my 1st, 2nd and 3rd hops are coming out of Romania. vlan12.as06-10g.wco1.sg.m247.ro irb-1906.agg1v.wco1.sg.m247.ro be-2-3111.bb1n.wco1.sg.m247.ro While that would explain the latency issue if I'm actually connecting to Romanian servers but I'm supposed to be using Singapore. Hopefully someone can explain the issue I'm having. ThanksSat, 25 Apr 2026 16:43:01 +0000Hello. I'm new to AirVPN. So I'm trying to set up Airvpn + Qbittorrent and I'm having some troubles. I get a "Connection Refused" error when testing the port. I have opened the port in my firewall (30105) and It's also set in qbittorrent. Network Interface is also set to airvpn. I'm using the OpenVPN UDP config from the generator on the website. Continent: Europe, OS: Linux CachyOS.Fri, 24 Apr 2026 10:32:26 +0000I stumbled upon this online WG converter. Is it safe to use? Is so, which settings are recommended? I'm using WG configs with Wiresock because Eddie drastically slows boot-up speeds, often not loading and connected before the wifi disconnects. AmneziaWG supports obfuscation that Eddie does not.Wed, 22 Apr 2026 01:25:54 +0000Hello all, relatively new user here loving the service, but I’ve hit a specific wall regarding IPTV performance. Google TV Streamer 4K (hardwired 1GBps) connected to AirVPN via VPN Fusion on ASUS router (WireGuard/OpenVPN), analiti (speed test) shows speed of 400Mbps with and without VPN enabled. However, the moment I launch a stream, the bitrate collapses to below 100kBps. Without the VPN, the stream sustains 2-3Mbps without issue. Appreciate any help I could get, thanks!Tue, 21 Apr 2026 16:02:11 +0000Currently, AirVPN only has three options for bypassing the block: SSH SSL and AmneziaWG, which is already quite excellent for a VPN provider. However, these options are still insufficient in the face of the ever-evolving GFW and other national firewalls. Perhaps we can outsource the protocol obfuscation part to other proxy providers, while leaving the basic privacy protection part to AirVPN. I have implemented the addition of dedicated proxies from other vendors in Eddie. I set a hybrid proxy port x in the Clash software and set a SOCKS proxy 127.0.0.1:x in Eddie. This way, traffic goes through the proxy first and then is forwarded to the AirVPN server. I can use the obfuscation performance of the proxy protocol to obfuscate AirVPN traffic. This makes a wide variety of obfuscation protocols available, such as Vless, AnyTLS, Hysteria2, Shadowsocks, Trojan, and Vmess. Using a proxy provider combined with a VPN provider allows me to bypass internet censorship smoothly, which is a good idea.Tue, 21 Apr 2026 12:46:11 +0000Helllo everyone, I run a NAS Qnap TS-464-8g. I mainly use it for torrenting and media server. Currently it runs docker image that containes qbittorrent + gluetun with airvpn configuration. It works fine and connected easily, however, I see slow speeds. Since I tried another vpn , the speeds are way better. I chose closes servers to me, which are Latvia and Estonia. Could someone tell me if avg speeds of 2mb/s is what expected with airvpn? I seed quite a lot of torrents, about 30active all the time, and speeds should be way higher since i've seen greated with different provider. Thanks. EDIT: I've added - WIREGUARD_MTU=1280 after I created the thread. with no impact to speeds. still avg 2mb/s upload. EDIT2: While docker exec'd into gluetun container, and running flat downloadi get 300-350 (40mb/s) mbps speeds EDIT3: I've noticed that just after starting the container with qbit+gluetun+airvpn(wireguard) i see my torrents uploading at 10mb/s, which would indicate the speeds can be higher, but after a minute, the speed drops to 2mb/s services: # ===================== # VPN # ===================== gluetun: image: qmcgaw/gluetun:latest container_name: gluetun cap_add: - NET_ADMIN devices: - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun ports: - 8081:8081 # qBittorrent WebUI - 6881:6881 - 6881:6881/udp volumes: - /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/Container/gluetun/config:/config - /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/Container/gluetun:/gluetun environment: - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=airvpn - VPN_TYPE=wireguard - TZ=redacted - WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY=redacted - WIREGUARD_PRESHARED_KEY=redacted - WIREGUARD_ADDRESSES=redacted - WIREGUARD_MTU=1280 - SERVER_COUNTRIES=Latvia,Estonia - FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS=3228 - LOGLEVEL=debug - LOCAL_NETWORK=192.168.0.0/24 - FIREWALL_INPUT_PORTS=8081 - PUID=0 - PGID=0 networks: - proxy restart: unless-stopped # ===================== # QBITTORRENT # ===================== qbittorrent: image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest container_name: qbittorrent network_mode: "service:gluetun" depends_on: gluetun: condition: service_healthy restart: true environment: - PUID=0 - PGID=0 - TZ=redacted - WEBUI_PORT=8081 volumes: - /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/'redacted'/qbittorrent:/config - /share/CACHEDEV2_DATA/'redacted':/downloads - /share/CACHEDEV3_DATA/'redacted':/downloads2 - /share/CACHEDEV4_DATA/'redacted':/downloads3 restart: unless-stopped networks: proxy: external: trueTue, 21 Apr 2026 09:25:53 +0000Hi everyone, I have installed eddie to mixed results. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. The results are poorly reproducible. Key pattern as follows: System boots - eddie starts If VPN connects - works for approximately 3 hours, then issues with connecting to VPN I then restart PC - Will sometimes connect, sometimes never connect So far I have been repeatedly restarting PC until the VPN connects I have tried changing protocols - seems to make no difference Please see attached system logs - from an instance where the VPN is working and an instance where the VPN is not working. Apologies if I am missing something big - I previously just used mullvad/proton - very simple clients. I have little knowledge of networking working vpn.txt not working vpn log.txtMon, 20 Apr 2026 11:20:02 +0000I can't connect to the internet (wired or wireless) without Eddie Air VPN on. Contacted ISP and they are sending a new router but I also bought a new router and that didn't work, tried uninstalling Eddie (didn't work) I think it may be a DNS issue or IP address issue or some setting blocking internet when VPN is off.. Has anybody else had this issue with Eddie blocking wired and wireless connections when not using VPN?

However, when I checked Eddie yesterday, I found that these options had been removed from the Network-Lock settings, leaving me with only iptables-legacy as an option. I had no choice but to try using iptables-legacy, but now I’m experiencing DNS leaks, which is causing me some trouble. OS: Arch Linux (6.19.11-arch1-1) Eddie Version: v2.25.1Sun, 19 Apr 2026 08:47:09 +0000Good afternoon, I recently configured Wiresock by generating a config file, everything was working fine yesterday. However, after a reboot and no other setting changes the port forward isn't working properly through the Wiresock connection any longer. I've tried generating a new config file just to see and same issue. I removed all my ports except for one to see if I just had too many and it was just getting confused. Does anyone know if there's anything specific to configure inside of Wiresock? I've only setup split tunnelling for a couple of specific applications and enabled the virtual adapter setting; everything else is left at the default. I am also running Tailscale if that matters at all, not sure if it would interfere, but killing that connection doesn't seem to have any effect. I do have AirVPN installed on my other machine and port forwarding seems to be working fine there, so I think it's a misconfiguration with Wiresock; I'm just unsure where to check. Any help or nudges in the right direction would be appreciated. Edit: I figured it out; I had to allow qBittorrent in my firewall rules for the public network. Feel free to close this thread.Fri, 17 Apr 2026 18:40:34 +0000Hello, I just did read about Proton VPN increasing it efficiency on blocking ads and trackers Is this something you can implement also?Thu, 16 Apr 2026 15:01:23 +0000I have been facing a predicament for months, which is that Steam thinks i'm a bot and doesn't let me play any multiplayer games in.. multiplayer, and I can't turn my VPN off to use all 5 ports on it to host numerous servers. The problem is, there isn't a way to IP or domain whitelist Steam, since I don't know any of the ip's it uses to connect, and they change alot. This is where app-based tunneling would shine though, and here is why 1. App based tunelling would most likely save you guys alot of bandwidth, now people can tell the VPN to send web browser connections through their actual internet, and then you won't have alot of traffic taken up by YouTube streams 2. This defeats the need to switch to other clients, which is clunky and complicated. 3. It lets you do everything in one app (Eddie), which is extremely convenient and simple for newcomers to use, probably bringing more subscribers to the VPN too since split-tunneling is a useful feature 4. It straight up lets you split tunnel some stuff in the first place, such as Steam i've already mentioned, which uses a variety of ip's and domains i don't know, and i'm not about to spend a few hours in wireshark getting all the ip's/domains and adding them. So please, 4 good reasons on why app split-tunneling should be added to Eddie. P.S. another thing I noticed was that the split-tunneling already in Eddie didn't seem to work until I reconnected the VPN, is this a limitation, a bug, or just something that isn't added? - Thanks, a pleading CS2 player and server hosterSun, 12 Apr 2026 14:42:52 +0000Hello! I've been using AirVPN for a pretty long time on a Proxmox LXC with Wireguard that runs my qBittorrent. It's been working fantastic until suddenly it can no longer make outbound connections. Pinging 1.1.1.1 comes up with nothing, and I cannot ping www.google.com either. Only thing I can ping are connections inside my network. I'm honestly unsure what would've possibly caused this as I've changed nothing about my system except for updating it, but thats it. The only thing I notice is a message when doing "wg-quick up wg0" is "/etc/resolvconf/update.d/libc: Warning: /etc/resolv.conf is not a symbolic link to /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf", but when I do "ln -sf /run/resolvconf/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf" I get "Temporary failure in name resolution: `us3.vpn.airdns.org:1637'. Trying again in 1.00 seconds..." with the time slowly increasing. I added some photos below to hopefully allow people to get a better idea on whats going on. Any help is appriciated cause honestly I have no idea where to go with this, its a major head scratcher and I'm unsure on where to even begin. If it helps I also do have tailscale setup on this as well, but it's been working fine for the longest time so I can't see that affecting anything. All connections work fine with the wireguard vpn down as well. Thank you!Sun, 12 Apr 2026 03:12:51 +0000Hello! Like many others, I use native software to connect to your servers. I would very much like to see the ability to obtain a configuration for the AmneziaWG protocol in the config generator. Will this feature be implemented, and if so, when?Sun, 12 Apr 2026 02:20:16 +0000Hello friends! I faced a some problems with Eddie client on Macbook. I created new macbook profile (account). When i logged into my Airvpn account via Eddie, there are no servers in server list window and no protocols for manual selection in Eddie preferences. After some time, the error of "BOOTSTRAP FAILURE" appears. My DNS are set 8.8.8.8 and 4.4.4.4. Airvpn.org pings sucssesfully in terminal. When i changed my old Mac account, there are no problems with Eddie. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?Sat, 11 Apr 2026 09:42:54 +0000Ive been using gluetun along with slskd anf qbittorrent.

When no vpn is connected in the network tab of the control panel i get my usual speeds around 30Mo/s (240mbps) but then when vpn is connected i can't for my life get over 6Mo/sec (48mbps). Could someone please review what i did and hit me on the head with some advice ? Setup : I set up the openvpn through that guidemaking sure i use a low charge server (tried 1 server, country and region without noticeable change) I opened a port on the air vpn website and reported it in deluge as describded in multiple forum threads unchecking lots of previously checked boxesWed, 08 Apr 2026 19:20:51 +0000so i was messing w/ airvpn on my laptop and for some reason the “auto reconnect” keeps toggling itself off. i swear i turned it on yesterday, checked the settings like 5x, even reinstalled the client, but next time i open it it’s just off again. tried different servers and the same thing happens. also noticed sometimes the kill switch icon stays red even tho it says “connected” on the main window? super confusing. anyone else seen this buggy behavior or am i losing it?Wed, 08 Apr 2026 07:13:23 +0000
