RyzaJr 0 Posted ... Hello all, I use a very restrictive firewall for Windows 7 known as TinyWall. I made it only allow programs I specifically let through it. The issue is I've allowed the AirVPN.exe executable through the firewall with no restrictions, but even so I'm not able to connect to a server until I disable the firewall. After I connect to a server, I can then reactivate the firewall. If I have the SSL protocol activated though, and I re-enable the firewall after connecting, it just disconnects from the server. If I let Eddie choose the protocol automatically, it doesn't disconnect after re-enabling the firewall. Judging from the attached screenshot of blocked processes by the firewall and Eddie's logs, it seems it's trying to connect to port 80? Though I'm not sure what exactly is trying to do so, since the executable is not shown. Any ideas? Thanks for any help. system log info.txt Quote Share this post Link to post

OpenSourcerer 1442 Posted ... You could turn it off in Eddie settings. After this, connect and check via ipleak.net if your traffic really goes through AirVPN.

All I can see is a whole bunch of stuff is blocked by svchost.exe at that point in my firewall. Guess it's just too restrictive. Quote Share this post Link to post

TheLittleJoker 0 Posted ... Hi I had the same problem, I allowed the different exe used by Eddie and unlocked LAN traffic (right click on systray icon > unlock LAN traffic). That made it! I haven't checked if I can only allow LAN traffic for some programs and not all of them. Quote Share this post Link to post
