VPN connection drops and does not reconnect automatically

[Bufu 0]

Is there any setting that would force Eddie to reconnect. I live in China and it seems connection works for some time. Then it I get OpenVPN3 KEEPALIVE_TIMEOUT and have to manually reconnect.

Eddie reconnects itself usually. Try not using Hummingbird (Preferences > Advanced > Use Hummingbird if available)

I am software developer and I have lot of free time for debugging here

I am using Android app. It seems that I have to put phone to flight mode and back, and restart Eddie sometimes to get new stable connection.

I am using OnePlus 10. I have a feeling that there is something wrong with the reconnection algorithm or network detection in Eddie.

That looks more like your RIL/wireless drivers are acting up. Try an OS upgrade first if applicable.

As you're a software dev with lots of free time at your hands, debugging this and thus helping the devs to get to the bottom of this should be easy for you.

OS is latest Android version for this phone.

Network works when connection drops because Chinese WeChat is working normally. I think Chinese ISP might be blocking open TCP/UDP connections and preventing new connections when connection drops.

Also, I can see that Android VPN is sending packets but not receiving any.
