OpenSourcerer 1441 Posted ... I've had this with DOCSIS on Vodafone Kabel Deutschland, too. Yes, this is the principal reason why it's slowing down. Packets are too far out of order, so OpenVPN assumes this might be a replay attack and drops those packets. One can calibrate the replay window to suit the connection better. The default is a window of 64 packets in 15 seconds which works for most but not all connection technologies. To calibrate this window, the verbosity can temporarily be increased to 4 (In Eddie, one can enter this in Preferences > OVPN directives): verb 4 When you connect and let it run for a bit while using the connection, you will see replay window backtrack occured [x] kind of messages when such an AEAD Decrypt error occurs. x indicates how far out of order a received packet is. Look at what its max value is over time, then set the replay window to that max plus maybe 5 or 10 (or round it to the next 10, or base 2, or whatever; basically, make it slightly higher than the max): replay-window x . 2 Stalinium and theradgrad reacted to this Quote Hide OpenSourcerer's signature Hide all signatures NOT AN AIRVPN TEAM MEMBER.

It's not related to the servers. My provider has every low Upload right now, around 5 Mbps. Could this somehow slow the download when the VPN is active? I mean I always get the full download of over 200Mbps if the VPN is disabled. I'm no expert so I honestly have no idea what the problem is here. Or if this VPN is just broken.

Staff 10014 Posted ... Hello!@1301 It might be a virtual network interface MTU size related problem, try with the custom directive mssfix 1280, or switch to WireGuard and set MTU to 1280 bytes. In Eddie, you can set custom OpenVPN directives in "Preferences" > "OVPN Directive" window. Type "mssfix 1280" in the custom directives field, click "Save", and re-start a connection to apply the change. You might like to test a connection over WireGuard as well. If you run Eddie 2.23.x you can also set WireGuard's MTU size in "Preferences" > "WireGuard" window. Also make sure that both your router firmware and your physical network interface driver are up to date. A sustained UDP flow causes problems on some old network interface drivers as well as old router firmwares. Quote Wouldn't we have seen this with all packets, then? Possible, but it's not necessarily so, as some datagrams may fit in the frame other ones may not. Anyway from the log it's not clear whether all the packets had to be re-sent or not. Shrinking the MTU size is well worth a test. The following, however, makes the MTU size problem less likely, but not impossible anyway: Quote Problem is still sometimes i get the full download speed of 200 with the VPN but otherwise it's limited to around 50 Mbps, Kind regards Quote Share this post Link to post

Indicating that the verbosity is not 4, otherwise there'd always be one additional log line per bad packet ID error. Please check whether you entered it correctly. Also indicating that 100 is too low a setting. You probably need 256 or even 512. Be advised, the default is 64, so 30 and 50 will make the problem, well, more of a problem.
