Zaroad 26 Posted ... Hi, what error did you get?It could be that somehow you are still using Sky's DNS servers. Test it out on ipleak.net on the DNS Adress detection. Quote Share this post Link to post
OpenSourcerer 1427 Posted ... Your post doesn't make much sense. If you are connected to a VPN like AirVPN, your traffic is rerouted through the server you are connected to. Sky has nothing to do with it. If you wanted to say that you cannot access Sky while being connected, it's most probably Sky themselves blocking the server's IP. Happens quite often with many other websites and services, the reasons are not always clear. Quote Hide OpenSourcerer's signature Hide all signatures NOT AN AIRVPN TEAM MEMBER.

zhang888 1066 Posted ... What DNS servers are you using? You have to set them to Air's (10.4.0.1) in order to avoid this block. Quote Hide zhang888's signature Hide all signatures Occasional moderator, sometimes BOFH. Opinions are my own, except when my wife disagrees. Share this post Link to post

SumRndmDude 22 Posted ... Ok, but on IPleak, what DNS server does it say you're using? It should match the IP address of the server you're connecting to. Also, run the DNS checker here and see how many servers it gives you. That will help to figure out if and possibly where you're leaking DNS requests, which is exactly what this sounds like.

barrabbas 0 Posted ... ipeak is giving dns server asNetherlands Global Layer B.V. - AirVPN Server (Exit) i tried the dns checker link you posted sumrndmdude but just got a No nameservers were found message. the same result after i turned off ublock/abp blocker add ons.thank you Quote Share this post Link to post
Khariz 109 Posted ... As you can see here, every airvpn server can successfully route to demonoid.pw: https://airvpn.org/routes/?q=www.demonoid.pw So it's definitely something on your end. "ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED" is a different issue than your basic DNS lookup. Two questions to help with troubleshooting: 1. Are you using Google Chrome as your web browser? 2. Are you attempting to connect to the HTTPS version of demonoid.pw? Usually this only happens with botched SSL connections. Obviously you want to use HTTPS though. I Quote Share this post Link to post
barrabbas 0 Posted ... thank you for replying khariz. firefox is my main browser. i use chrome as a backup. yes the demonoid web address starts https://www ive just tried using ie browser and got the sky blocked page with the message- Access Blocked Sorry, the web site www.demonoid.pw is not available through Sky.Sky has been ordered by the High Court to block access to this website.

Khariz 109 Posted ... Okay, well, if you seeing anything about Sky at all, you don't have AirVPN configured correctly. You need to make sure you do these three things: 1. Turn of any location services your device or browser may be using. 2. Plug that WebRTC leak. 3. Plug any DNS leaks. You had made progress when your error was ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED but now you appear back to square one. For location services:In the URL bar, type about:configType geo.enabledDouble click on the geo.enabled preferenceLocation-Aware Browsing is now disabled For WebRTC, make sure you do this:Enter "about:config" in the address bar and press enterPress the button "I'll be careful, I promise!"Type in "media.peerconnection.enabled" in the search bar (there should be only one entry)Right-click the entry choose "Toggle", the column "Value" should now be "false" For DNS leak protection, you need to either make sure the DNS options of eddie are enabled, use network lock, and ensure that the TAP adapter's DNS server is set to 10.4.0.1. 1 LZ1 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post
barrabbas 0 Posted ... thank you khariz for that helpful response.when i activated the network lock i was able to get on the demonoid website again.have never had to use the lock before. i wonder what changed? many thanks for the help everyone Quote Share this post Link to post
zhang888 1066 Posted ... You have your traffic/DNS going outside of the tunnel for some reason.Try the standard troubleshooting, such as Khariz mentioned before, as well as disabling IPv6.
