The error should be apparent to you, no knowledge required. You select OpenVPN version >= 2.5, yet your OpenVPN version is 2.4.7. The latter doesn't know the data-ciphers directive as it's new in 2.5.

That is true. Apols. I wasn't explicitly clear about that aspect. We could have solved this in 2 messages if I was! I thank you, for all your time and aiding me in fixing the issue. Deleting the profile file solved that. Hero!

Hello! Today we're starting AirVPN eleventh birthday celebrations offering special discounts on longer term plans. It seems like it was only yesterday that we celebrated the 10th milestone birthday, and here we are, one year later already. From a two servers service located in a single country providing a handful of Mbit/s, the baby has grown up to a wide infrastructure in 22 countries in four continents, providing now 240,000+ Mbit/s to tens of thousands of people around the world. We still define it as a "baby", but AirVPN is now the oldest VPN in the market which never changed ownership, and it's one of the last that still puts ethics well over profit, a philosophy which has been rewarded by customers and users. 2020 (and 2021 so far) have been harsh years for the mankind but we have no rights to complain too much because AirVPN was only marginally touched by those terrible repercussions which affected many other business sectors in general. In spite of that, we could not maintain our promise to deliver native software for FreeBSD and we apologize for the failure. However, releasing software for FreeBSD, specifically AirVPN Suite, remains one of our goals, so stay tuned. On the other hand, Eddie desktop edition, AirVPN Suite for Linux, Hummingbird for Linux and macOS, and OpenVPN 3 AirVPN library were updated substantially and swiftly. Moreover, Eddie Android edition development has been recently re-opened to provide a new version updated to new requirements and specifications of Android 11 during 2021. Hummingbird was natively released for M1 based Apple Mac systems too, allowing a dramatic performance boost (up to +100% in >100 Mbit/s lines). Behind the scenes, infrastructure had some paramount improvements. The whole network in the Netherlands has been enlarged with additional redundancy and several servers around the world have had hardware upgrades. In Sweden and Switzerland we started operating servers connected to exclusive 10 Gbit/s lines and ports, and we optimized the environment to obtain more bandwidth from the OpenVPN processes. We managed to beat the previous 1.7 Gbit/s barrier. The performance on the customer side has improved and reached new peaks of excellence, as you can see here: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/48234-speedtest-comparison/?do=findComment&comment=130191 Furthermore, the infrastructure has become fully Wireguard capable and throughout 2021 we will start offering Wireguard connections, in addition to OpenVPN ones, in an hardened environment which mitigates the numerous privacy problems posed by Wireguard. Last but not least we re-started operations in a fourth continent, Oceania, with a new server in New Zealand. All AirVPN applications and libraries are free and open source software released under GPLv3. It's worth quoting literally what we wrote last year for AirVPN birthday: Kind regards and datalove AirVPN Staff
