ANSWERED slow speed

[ni66a 0]

I have a 20 mbit/s adsl connection. I use openvpn client. I selected Switzerland only configuration.

 

At first connection no problem: good speed, all worked well. Then problems started.

 

I noticed in the openvpn client log a soft reset every hour, then my connection stop working:

And so on ...

 

I manually restarted the connection and now I'm getting slow speeds ...

 

Any help?

[ni66a 0]

I'm no more using OpenVPN GUI and I'm using command line openvpn.exe. I use a batch file to open connection and automatically restart it when stop working, at least I will have a working connection.

I'll double check connection speed ...

[ni66a 0]

I did my script for improve autoreconnect but still I get random speed in Switzerland. After a lot of reconnect I passed from 1 to 15 mbit/s (download) and from 0.08 to 0.5 mbit/s (upload).

 

Then I added this to VPN configuration (OpenVPN client with Windows 8)

 

tun-mtu 1500

fragment 0

mssfix 0

 

And I got a little speed improvement.

all speed problems fixed, AirVPN now is working fast and stable
