ANSWERED Disconnecting and Reconnecting Constantly

[Ackei 0]

This has never occurred before. I have no idea what the cause is. I can't connect to any server whatsoever. This is happening on Windows 10. Thanks.

Hello!

Insufficient information, we're sorry. What is the program you run to connect to the VPN? Can you post the log of such program taken after a connection attempt has failed?

Kind regards

I've fixed the issue. For whatever reason the other VPNs I use for LAN emulation on my PC caused these errors. Once I uninstalled them the issue went away.

Hello!

We're glad to know that you managed to solve the problem. Yes, for some reason their customer care could explain, Radmin interface blocks UDP connections. Eddie should not pick this interface for OpenVPN. For the readers: you can also tell Eddie to ignore any other interface by entering a valid name in Preferences > Networking > VPN interface name field (for example eddie) but, when Radmin runs, this solution could be insufficient.

Kind regards
