Once disconnected, won't reconnect

[lordbeau 8]

(Using Windows 8.1, Eddie client).

 

Connecting to a server is not a problem though can take a fair while. However, once I disconnect, I can then NEVER reconnect to any server. It just tries to connect, fails. moves on, then keeps failing.

 

I have no idea why this is.

 

Is this recognised or normal at all?

I have the same issue. waiting for TUN/TAP interface to come up. Only solution is to reboot. V annoying

Yes, my logs also show the same:

 

The tun/tap interface (the virtual network adapter used by OpenVPN) does not come up.

A solution appears to be here, but what a performance:

It seems that this post goes into more detail:

I long for the day when I can just flip from one server to another...

Did you use something like TCP Optimizer? Using that gave me the same problems like you describe, reverting back to old values got Eddie back to normal work again.
