Items: 97645 (as of today) ===== By default, AirVPN DNS remains neutral in accordance with our mission. However, you have the option to enforce block lists which poison our DNS, in order, for example, to block known sources of ads, spam, malware and so on. You can manage your preferences in your account Client Area ⇨ DNS panel https://airvpn.org/dns/. We offer only lists released with licenses which grant re-distribution for business purposes too. The system is very flexible and offers some exclusive features never seen before in other VPN services: You can activate or de-activate, anytime, any combination of lists. You can add customized exceptions and/or additional blocks. Any specified domain which must be blocked includes all of its subdomains too. Lists which can return custom A,AAAA,CNAME,TXT records are supported. You can define any combination of block lists and/or exceptions and/or additions for your whole account or only for specific certificate/key pairs of your account (Client Area ⇨ Devices ⇨ Details ⇨ DNS) Different matching methods are available for your additions and exceptions: Exact (exact FQDN), Domain (domain and its subdomains), Wildcard (with * and ? as wildcards), Contain, Start with, End with. An API to fetch every and each list in different formats (see Client Area ⇨ API ⇨ dns_lists service) is active Any change in your selected list(s), any added exception and any added block is enforced very quickly, within few tens of seconds. You don't need to disconnect and re-connect your account. You can define your own lists and discuss lists and anything related in the community forum here Essential requisite to enjoy the service is, of course, querying AirVPN DNS while your system is connected to some VPN server, which is by the way a default setup if you run our software.

Hello, the test is performed only over TCP, and SoulSeek works in UDP too if we're not mistaken. First, modify your port settings in your AirVPN account port panel. You have restricted the forward only to TCP, so change it to TCP+UDP (select it from the dedicated protocol combo box). Then, make sure that your system is actually connected to the VPN, that SoulSeek listens to the correct port and doesn't bind to the physical network interface. Besides, check your firewall rules (in the same system which connects to the VPN). Some firewalls can change rule set according to the network "type" the system is connected to, so check while the system is connected to the VPN. Make sure that incoming packets to SoulSeek are not blocked. If the problem persists, do not hesitate to open a ticket to let the support personnel assist you. Kind regards
