ANSWERED iOS: 'Waiting for server' Network Manager applet: 'Connection attempt timed out'

Recommended Posts

Dear AirVPN crowd,

 

When connecting to your servers using the OpenVPN app in iOS 7 (also happened in iOS 6) I frequently get 'Connection timeout' errors. When initiating the connection it first reads 'Looking up DNS name' and later 'Waiting for server'. It is common for the service to be stuck on either step to the frequency where the service becomes almost useless to me.

 

When connecting using the Ubuntu network-manager applet I also get a lot of timeout errors, and since switching to a new computer today (still running Ubuntu 13.04) I havn't been able to get a single connection except for to 'United States' which consistently works while the others (eg Singapore, Earth, Italy) don't work.

Hello!

 

The problem is caused by OpenDNS:

 

Oct  5 23:59:00 kaytsai nm-openvpn[4570]: UDPv4 link remote: [AF_INET]67.215.66.132:443

 

67.215.66.132 is the server IP address to which OpenDNS hijacks our *.airdns.org names, as if they did not exist.

 

Please see here for more information and quick solutions:
