I have a quad core cpu with 16GB ram so hardware is not the issue. I do have VMware workstation installed, so I have multiple virtual network adapters, maybe it is related to that. Even so, maybe a future version of Eddie can collect this information in a faster way with parallelization, mulithreading or something like that. I'm on Windows 10 with latest stable Eddie 2.19.7 Quote Share this post Link to post

That does it already. We need to see why it takes so long for you. In Eddie > Logs, click the lifebelt icon and paste/upload the output here. You may time execution time of this as well.

The collecting platform-specific information took more than a minute. I have also temporarily uninstalled VMware to see if that sped startup up, but only by about 15 seconds. log.txt Quote Share this post Link to post
OpenSourcerer 953 Posted ... Wow, there are like a million routes for the Ethernet interface. Not the first time I'm seeing this, but the first time they are on a physical NIC. Can you please reboot your computer? Not shutdown and power-on, reboot. Then try again. Quote Hide OpenSourcerer's signature Hide all signatures » I am not an AirVPN team member.

OpenSourcerer 953 Posted ... Yep, they should. Are you using any antivirus, firewall or other program which accesses/modifies network interfaces?

Dadadadadaa 0 Posted ... I'm not using a 3rd party firewall. I'm also using HitmanPro.Alert, which has some network protection, but temporarily uninstalling it doesn't help. I have another PC(with slower, older hardware) also with HitmanPro.Alert and when I try Eddie on there the collect network info part in the splash screen only takes about a second. I also had the official OpenVPN client installed(https://openvpn.net/community-downloads/). I uninstalled that and now the collect network info time has more than halved. However, when Eddie tries to connect it complains about not finding the adapter, I get UAC prompts, but allowing them does not help and Eddie stays in a loop. I have uninstalled Eddie and installed it again but the situation remains. In Eddie advanced settings, the Uninstall standard driver button does nothing. I have now set it to use the wintun driver and that does work for now. Quote Share this post Link to post
