ANSWERED Eddie UI Login issues

[AEThrowaway 0]

I'm logged out of my regular account at the moment until I can get back to my PC so posting this as a guest temporarily (I'd rather not use my actual without being behind a VPN of course)

Updated to the 3.3.0 Version of the Android Eddie UI and following that am unable to login at all whether or not I have a master Password set in place.

Prior to this I had been having issues wherein the VPN would disconnect repeatedly (unsure if memory leak due to other apps on my phone or just running out of memory capacity but still testing that one.) I am using the network lock features but the connections are stable and Wi-Fi isn't disconnecting on the device.
I haven't made any changes to the settings in months as it's been working fine up until 2-3 days ago.

Following updating the app I repeatedly cannot login with the Logs stating 
"RequestAirVPNDocument(): AirVPN Server Connection Timeout"
"RequestAirVPNDocument(): cannot retrieve data from boot server"
"RequestAirVPNDocument(): cannot retrieve document manifest from server"
"RequestAirVPNDocument(): Error while Retrieving AirVPN Manifest from server"

I don't see any reason my network would be having issues with reaching the bootstrap servers. but it's gone through multiple and failed to reach all of them. I did also default my settings and check to ensure that wasn't the issue, but that has unfortunately not helped. I can see logs wise it did register network monitor and set the manifest to default instance however I don't believe that manifest properly downloaded (currently unsure)

A second pair of eyes would be greatly appreciated! 

OS: Graphene
Device: Google Pixel 8
Eddie Ver: 3.3.0
Side note: This is not running in the root profile and cannot due to security implications.

I fixed the problem after running another classic Reboot reinstall, but ended up figuring out in the process what was actually causing the issues. 

And Drum roll please...

It was DNS. 
It's Always DNS. (If you can't tell I'm only slightly pulling my hair out)

That aside, I've figured out that the DNS Server I am regularly using (quad9 / 9.9.9.9) gets very finicky with its connections, so changed my bootstraps to route through the secondary DNS and it seems to have worked enough to get my initial connection. 

I'll be testing to ensure it remains working smoothly over the next few days but otherwise back to regularly scheduled AirVPN usage~

That's the very first point of the Tenets of IT:

1. It's always DNS.
2. When it’s not DNS, it's NAT.
3. When it's not NAT, it’s MTU.
4. When it’s not MTU, it’s BGP.
5. When it’s not BGP, it’s LACP.

Up to 4 is quite relevant for VPNs.
