Only activate when not connected to certain networks?

Recommended Posts

This may have been answered already, but I can't get the right combinations of keywords to come up with the answer, even though it seems like I can't be the only one with this issue.

 

Is there a way, whether through the AirVPN client itself, or through OpenVPN general client, or another method, to only activate the VPN connection when NOT connected to a specific SSID?

 

ie, if I have it on my laptop, i'd like it connected anytime I'm out and about, but when I'm on my home network, there's no need since it's at the router level.

Yes, this is possible the feature isn't built into OpenVPN or Eddie.

 

All you need to do is write yourself a conditional script / program. This will cause your VPN client to load whenever Windows detects a different SSID than the one(s) specified or to connect whenever a network is declared public, for example.

 

If you're not competent in basic programming then you can pay somebody to do this for you.

If there's a software like IFTTT on Android for Windows/Linux/macOS, this might be your solution.
