Thanks @OpenSourcerer for clarifying this for me

Your torrent client, and anything else on your PC, creates connections via the AirVPN server, not with it. If you use a browser to browse to duckduckgo.com or so while connected, the browser is connecting to the website, because ultimately it's the browser that wants to download DuckDuckGo's front page, not the AirVPN server. The IP DuckDuckGo will see connecting will be that of the AirVPN server, though. Same with torrent peers: It's your torrent client wanting to download pieces from others, so the client will establish the connections. Peers will see the AirVPN server exit IP, though, because those connections were made via the AirVPN server.

The OpenVPN config file, in your case AirVPN_TCP-443-Entry4.ovpn. It's not ideal because OpenVPN will exit with a non-zero return code. If you've got some logic checking if OpenVPN exited cleanly, it will break that. If v6 is disabled anyway, there is no real reason to endure those errors. But it's your choice in the end, OpenVPN will work despite them.

By not requesting IPv6 routes from the server. If you look closely, it only happens if OpenVPN wants to set -6 routes. Your system seems to have no support for that, or you disabled it intentionally. In the config, comment out or delete this line: # UV_IPV6 = yes .

Hi, I just downloaded the program, but when I choose a server it gets stuck in "checking IPv4." These are the logs. Anybody knows how to fix this?

Sorry to hear that some people are using this service to trick others give them a few bucks ... It is a pitty because it affects all of us who just want to protect a bit our privacy, skip geolocation and download some copyrighted material. Anyway hope they do not put in a lot of trouble because we appreciate what you are doing and you are by far the best on market!
