Hello! The cracker wouldn't be able to decrypt it (interception can be performed with or without your configuration file), but he/she would be able to connect to VPN servers with your account key. You may delete or renew keys anytime: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/26209-how-to-manage-client-certificatekey-pairs/ Kind regards

worked like a charm, got 465/440 on latest speed test! Thank you.

Hello! Here a serious complication might have entered into play. UFW does not support nftables, while all modern distributions are based on nftables for the packet filtering system. Eddie does support nftables and correctly uses it. UFW must rely on translations back and forth performed, for example, by iptables-nft. However the translation tools do what they can, but if you start mixing iptables with nftables syntax rules, by experience we know that "bad things will happen". If you have an nftables based distribution and you want to use Eddie's Network Lock (or the AirVPN Suite) you have two options: 1. avoid UFW, which after all is a frontend of a frontend of a frontend, by disabling it, and operate on the firewall rules directly with nft. To disable UFW the following command should be sufficient and permanent: sudo ufw disable 2. Alternatively, force Eddie to use the iptables-legacy system. Open the "Preferences" > "Network Lock" window and select "iptables-legacy" on the "Mode" combo box. By forcing consistency of rules' syntax by all the programs operating on firewall rules the translator tools should work properly. However, if your system is still entirely based on iptables (no nftables at all) then the above can not be the cause of the problem and it's necessary to look elsewhere to find the problem roots. Kind regards

Exactly. A business migration to an "offshore, sovereign nation" might seem like the best solution here, but it's just a hammer putting an angle to the nail. Sure, (Corporation, et al) Taxes might be lower elsewhere, but the proposed unregulated, dynamic blacklist system being implemented in Italy, applies globally to AirVPN's and all Italian resident-customers. If AirVPN were to still be a registered Italian business, and somehow implement technological bypasses of the blacklist to reallow Italian resident-customers, then even a layman could see an argument for detrimental culpability subject to their own business registation laws, if they wish to continue operating out of Italian jurisdiction. I'm certain that the Owners, Staff, Lawyers of AirVPN, being at least of Italian business registration since inception, are taking this legislative battle to heart. Many others will too: I'd bet there'll be an EU review into the frameworks implementation sooner rather than later, once it's filtering impact and resonance are actualised. @Staff Will do whatever they feel is most legal, and best feasible. But there's one reason why we're customers: A "VPN operated by activists in defense of net neutrality, privacy and against censorship." That time is now.

Why AirVPN is the only one that will make this? Why other vpn will stay still in Italy?

Hello! Customers who are not residents of Italy and purchased the service from outside Italy should not suffer any unintended suspension, even if they are transiting through Italy (for example for tourism). Should any problem arise please contact the support team. We will carefully explore different, feasible options when necessary, and this is one of them. This is because the authority will seek to enforce blocks on any company offering services to residents of Italy, regardless of whether the service is offered from another country and jurisdiction. See, for example, the request for DNS poisoning filed to Quad9, a non-Italian company that operates DNS servers outside Italy but accessible to residents of Italy. It is remarkable to note that Quad9 challenged a similar request from Sony in court, and won. Kind regards

Hello! Thank you very much, you are a long time customer! Some Eddie Linux edition versions, including 2.21.8, have a bug which causes a race condition in some cases when the round trip times tests are performed. The bug was fixed in Eddie 2.22 and the whole round trip time checks procedure was significantly improved in 2.23. From your description, we suspect that your problem is caused by the mentioned bug. Please test Eddie 2.23.2 beta and check whether the problem gets solved. Please see here to download Eddie 2.23.2 beta version: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/56428-eddie-desktop-223-beta-released/ If you are already running Eddie 2.23.2 then the problem must have a different cause, let us know. Kind regards

I have been on Virgin Media for some 9 months or so. Running pfSense Plus on my router for years, setup a couple of connections over openVPN in a gateway group. The performance has generally sucked no matter what I do, I cannot get consistent performance, high latency, slow speeds, packet loss etc. However, at the weekend I setup wireguard and the performance has been very good, am able to saturate the connection for the first time. For whatever reason with Virgin Media, Wireguard out performs OpenVPN when connected to AirVPN servers.

UPDATE 2023-AUG-28 A customer with Virgin Hub 5 reported very poor performance. The problem could be resolved by running WireGuard (or Eddie in WireGuard mode) and forcing a 1280 bytes MTU size. In this way the customer could almost saturate the peak bandwidth offered by Virgin. WireGuard's MTU size can be customized on Eddie 2.23.1 and higher versions, on "Preferences" > "WireGuard" window. Kind regards

AIRVPN DOES NOT RECOGNIZE ANYMORE VERISIGN, AFILIAS AND ICANN AUTHORITY. OUR COMMITMENT AGAINST UNITED STATES OF AMERICA UNFAIR AND ILLEGAL DOMAIN NAMES SEIZURES. The United States of America authorities have been performing domain names seizures since the end of 2010. The seizures have been performed against perfectly legal web-sites and/or against web-sites outside US jurisdiction. Administrators of some of those web-sites had been previously acquitted of any charge by courts in the European Union. The domain name seizures affect the world wide web in its entirety since they are performed bypassing the original registrar and forcing VeriSign and Afilias (american companies which administer TLDs like .org, .net, .info and .com) to transfer the domain name to USA authorities property. No proper judicial overview is guaranteed during the seizure. Given all of the above, we repute that these acts: - are a violation of EU citizens fundamental rights, as enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights; - are an attack against the Internet infrastructure and the cyberspace; - are a strong hint which shows that decision capacities of USA Department of Justice and ICE are severely impaired; and therefore from now on AirVPN does not recognize VeriSign, Afilias and/or ICANN authority over domain names. AirVPN refuses to resolve "seized" domain names to the IP address designated by USA authorities, allowing normal access to the original servers' websites / legitimate Ip addresses. In order to fulfil the objective, we have put in place an experimental service which is already working fine. If you find anomalies, please let us know, the system will surely improve in time. Kind regards AirVPN admins

Hello! You can consider to enforce permanent firewall rules that block all the outgoing traffic from your system. In this way, the activation of Network Lock will unlock communications to our VPN servers and bootstrap servers only. When Network Lock is disabled, the previous "block all" rules will be restored. This means also that as long as Eddie has not started, your system traffic is totally blocked (even at boot). Just make sure that you allow anyway DHCP communications to your router, they are vital to establish a connection inside your local network. Kind regards
