Currently in Russia, I can confirm that OpenVPN UDP without any extra config (on any port) works on some US, NL and LV servers on mobile networks (MegaFon, MTS). On household connections, regular OpenVPN does not seem to work at all, but regular WireGuard sometimes does. When it doesn't work, the connection handshake usually succeeds, but no traffic passes. But what I wanted to share is that I've had near 100% success (on both household and mobile connections) using the AmneziaWG client with many (most?) AirVPN servers. This is a client that introduces modified handshake parameters intended to fool DPI, while remaining compatible with the vanilla WireGuard server implementation, and it's available for all platforms (you can always compile from source, but at the time of writing there are binaries available at least for Windows, iOS and Mac OS and Android. Linux kernel modules and binaries are also available on Github). Note: there is also an "AmneziaVPN" GUI client but I prefer to use the bare protocol implementation instead. These additional parameters are needed in the WireGuard config file generated by the Config Generator (check the Amnezia documentation for a detailed explanation), and have been verified to work: [Interface] Jc = 3 Jmin = 40 Jmax = 70 S1 = 0 S2 = 0 H1 = 1 H2 = 2 H3 = 3 H4 = 4

Hello! We're very glad to inform you that a new 1 Gbit/s (full duplex) server located in Taipei (Taiwan), is available: Sulafat. The server supports OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH, TLS 1.3, OpenVPN tls-crypt and WireGuard. The AirVPN client will show automatically the new server; if you use any other OpenVPN or WireGuard client you can generate all the files to access them through our configuration/certificates/key generator (menu "Client Area"->"Config generator"). The server accepts connections on ports 53, 80, 443, 1194, 2018 UDP and TCP for OpenVPN and ports 1637, 47107 and 51820 UDP for WireGuard. Full IPv6 support is included as well. As usual no traffic limits, no logs, no discrimination on protocols and hardened security against various attacks with separate entry and exit-IP addresses and 4096 bit DH key not shared with any other VPN server. This is our first server in Taiwan; the tests we have performed during the last week have been encouraging but not totally perfect for our quality standards. Your feedback is welcome and it will be crucial to determine whether this server's datacenter can meet your expectations and requirements. You can check the status in our real time servers monitor: https://airvpn.org/servers/Sulafat/ Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

You know, it's sort of sad to think that you must fall into the darkness just because you are not belonging to the "overwhelming majority of the world". China, Russia, Belarus, Venezuela, Turkmenistan, Egypt, Turkey. Who's next? I know we are all the "third world" but we are people and want the information! If no one will lend us a hand from the greater world, where life is still okay, we won't ever make it out of the darkness.

Hello! We're very glad to announce a remarkable expansion of our inbound remote port forwarding system aimed at avoiding once and for all the port exhaustion problem. The comfort and the growth problem In the AirVPN "Port Forwarding" service, unlike some of our competitors we grant that assigned ports are not server specific. We also ensure that they remain permanently reserved to an account as long as any valid plan is active. This unique system offers unparalleled comfort as you don't have to worry about servers switches, zone selections and programs re-configuration. However, ports are only 65536, because the space reserved for them in a TCP/IP packet header is only 2 bytes, and the inconvenience of the great comfort brought by AirVPN service is that port exhaustion is near as more and more users decided to use the service. A "no compromise" solution Our goal was to avoid port exhaustion while maintaining maximum comfort. We are introducing a new system specifically designed to achieve this goal. Now we allocate not only a port number, but a port number associated with a port pool. For example a port on pool :1 can be assigned to a user, and the same port in pool :2 can be assigned to another user. Existing assigned port will come from the first pool (:1). Currently we offer two pools, but more pools can be added whenever necessary. With this method, port exhaustion is postponed indefinitely while the comfort of the service is preserved. In the following example you can see the pool (:1, :2 for now) specified right after the port number. The account has port 24860 reserved in both pools. How it works Each Air VPN server sends out clients' VPN traffic through a shared exit IP address. From now on, AirVPN servers feature multiple exit IP addresses, each of which is linked to a specific port pool. Therefore we can determine which pool a port/address is associated with and route traffic accordingly. The implications for AirVPN users and customers The obvious good impact is that port availability increases dramatically. The new system is not difficult at all and extremely similar to the previous one: simply use DDNS (*) names with port forwarding, and not the direct IP address. Your account name(s) based on AirVPN's DDNS will always resolve into the correct server's exit-IP address related to the pool of your assigned port. If you prefer to rely on IP addresses or anyway you don't want to define domain names through AirVPN's DDNS, you can find the correct IP address used by clicking the Test Open button available in your AirVPN account port panel. Please note that this IP address could change over time, so domain names defined by DDNS are a more comfortable solution. There is only a modest caveat (which could be resolved in the future), please see below. Caveat Any setup not involving manual communication on how to connect to a service, as it happens with a p2p program, does not need domain names at all. If a program transmits autonomously how it can be reached (typical examples: some blockchain wallet programs, all torrent programs), at this stage please make sure you forward a port from pool 1 for those programs. (*) DDNS is a service offered automatically for free to all accounts and included on every and each AirVPN plan. Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

Hello! We confirm the problem and we could determine that both the domain name authoritative DNS and the web site block the Taiwan server. Packets get out regularly from the server and from Taiwan but they are black holed by the final destination datacenters. Furthermore the authoritative DNS does not answer to our DNS server in Taiwan (this is a lesser problem as you could resolve the name through some other public DNS or the hosts file). We don't know the reasons of this behavior. If you query Democracy Now and you receive a reply please let us know. In the meantime we can "micro-route" Democracy Now web site from Sulafat, we will examine how to do it soon. Yes, this is in the official ISO-3166 that Eddie uses to find areas names assigned by the United Nations. According to a previous administrative division, Taiwan is the biggest province of the Republic of China (ROC), not to be confused with People's Republic of China (PRC, mainland China). By using Taiwan as the country's name, "Province of China" is also a definition pushed by PRC at all levels (from UN to NGOs) to shape two ideas: that PRC must "re-unify" with Taiwan and that when you say "China" you don't talk about the Republic of China, but about the PRC (even PRC detractors fall prey of this propaganda as we can see from this thread). In this sense ISO-3166-2:TW entry could be seen as a concession to PRC narrative and the PRC can "play" over the ambiguity of the definition. In the next version we may either stay with this one, according to the United Nations status (but see here for some arguments against this), or censor the ISO document itself. A UN spokesperson’s statement in May 2024, reiterating that Taiwan is a province of China (referring to PRC and not ROC according to directly or indirectly PRC controlled media), guided by the General Assembly resolution of 1971 (Resolution 2758), is important to see how much energy PRC spends to affirm the notion that there is only one China and this only China is PRC and not ROC. On the other hand, we have been fighting and circumventing mainland China (PRC) censorship for 14 years, we recognize China (PRC) as a country enemy of the Internet, controlled by a regime hostile to various human rights, and in reality resolution 2758 interpretation may have been distorted by PRC.. Therefore ISO-3166-2:TW unilateral modification to delete "Province of China" is not unreasonable for us. The matter will be discussed. However, to insinuate that the normal software usage of an ISO document to translate or find a country/area name means that AirVPN endorses PRC (or PRC alleged wet dream to invade Taiwan) or that AirVPN fails its mission after all the sacrifices brought on to circumvent censorship in mainland China is offensive to say the least, or not in good faith in the worst case. The very fact that we list the server in Taiwan with Taiwan as a country tells a lot, as today Taiwan is recognized as a country only by 12 countries in the world. Kind regards

Nope, this is the correct designation. Taiwan province is part of The People's Republic Of China and will be peacefully reunited one day.

Disappointed this is called "province of China" in Eddie, hope this is an oversight.

I love seeing new servers in new countries, thank you! However, I connected to the Taiwan ("province of China", really?) server today and tried to watch my daily news from Democracynow [dot] org and it wouldn't load the page. I then switched to one of the new USA servers in San Jose and it loaded the page just fine. I wonder who or what is preventing the Democracynow page from loading? I also wonder if any other pages with "democracy" in them will be blocked on that server or if it's the web site, are they blocking it because it's a Chinese-named server? As a non-tech savvy user I'm guessing it's the web page that's blocking it but that's only a guess although I imagine Democracynow would want "province of China" people to watch their show.

If you notice that the connection speed drops down again increase the Jc parameter (I recommend values 10-80) and rearrange the H1, H2, H3, H4 values (they should be the numbers from 1 to 4 but their order can be any). ТСПУ is able to detect and throttle AmneziaWG and I personally had this situation twice, and twice I had to pump up the Jc parameter. Don't set it too high though: too much junk is also abnormal and potentially can become a fingerprint. According to the recent news Roskomnadzor has set a budget of 60 billion rubles (655 000 000 USD) to significantly upgrade their wonderboxes in the next 5 years. So I guess even more fun is coming. I've already bought a cheap VPS and installed Xray (VLESS-TCP-XTLS-Vision-REALITY), sing-box (Shadowsocks with 2022-blake3-aes-128-gcm) and Cloak but don't use it much to keep the IP from prematurely getting into the black lists (if they even currently exist in Russia, but in Iran they already do). May be it's all over the top but who knows the future? For now my main method of accessing the larger data world is still the good old AirVPN.

@OpenSourcerer Hello! Our source is M247 only. The problem affected intra-Asia connectivity and Europe to Asia connectivity at least and was visible on the other provider in Singapore (Leaseweb SG) too. From Europe you should have been able to see for example troubles on NTT when you reached Japan and Singapore. The problem was generally limited to some notable congestion on peak times but some packet loss was visible frequently. As of yesterday night (CEST) some problems seem solved and the connectivity has improved remarkably. The last ETR reports Sep-23 but that's a worst case, it looks like some repairs were completed if you look at performance (we may ask for a new report in a few days if problems re-appear after that date). Kind regards

Yes, I can confirm that AmneziaWG currently works amazingly well with AirVPN. I get speeds up to 150+ Mbps to the German servers even without the kernel module (sorry but I don't want to install anything from GitHub into the kernel). Unfortunately it's still a "DPI spoofing" solution in the vein of GoodbyeDPI, byedpi, SpoofDPI, etc., hence sooner or later they manage to detect those fake packet tricks and block it. My opinion is that only real obfuscation (methods used by Cloak, VRay, etc.) can be considered a long-term solution. For those who, like me, uses a Linux home server which acts like a VPN gateway, and start WireGuard/OpenVPN in a custom way, a couple of advices: download, compile and install both amneziavpn-go and amneziawg-tools. The first is the userspace daemon which creates the network interface, it will be run automatically once you run either: awg-quick <wg_interface_name> awg-quick <full_path_to_wg_config_file> That is the only command you should run.

I've done a bit of research and it seems possible to do both, at least technically. Now we just need to talk about the merits of offering it. What I can definitely say is that it's not going to be a high priority thing right now.

Just a super quick correction here: Eddie is written in C#, not in Java, so the underlying runtime is not the Java Virtual Machine, but the Common Language Runtime. You are somewhat correct in that both JVM and CLR are sandboxed runtimes executing precompiled bytecode, though. Additionally, while you can achieve somewhat similar performance of your Java application on all operating systems if you test against a specific JVM implementation (i.e., HotSpot on Windows = HotSpot on Linux), this is more difficult for CLR applications. The Windows user interface is built in .NET, but on Linux people usually download Mono to execute CLR apps, and Mono != .NET Framework. There will be differences in features and performance, as you pointed out. Would be an interesting experiment to see if Eddie can be run on .NET Core, which is a feature-reduced CLR implementation also available on non-Windows platforms. I'm guessing it's not possible.

There’s a patcher for the YouTube app called Revanced. The project is open-source and I find it works quite well. It's pretty nice especially if you prefer the default YouTube UI. It's listed as ReVanced on GitHub. Newpipe is another good option, prioritizing privacy by not allowing account sign-ins. However, it does let you import YouTube subscriptions. I use Newpipe for downloading YouTube videos on my phone, and YT-DLP for downloading videos on my desktop. While not ideal from a privacy standpoint, I find YouTube’s algorithm does a decent job at recommending content. Because of this, I prefer using the patched YouTube app on my phone via Revanced. For Firefox or Chrome, uBlock Origin seems to effectively block ads for now. I'm aware of YouTube's recent attempts to combat ad blockers and hope they don’t implement server-side ad injection.

Sorry, my bad, didn't test it thoroughly. IPv6 works after device reboot.

Hello! We see two different problems. Please log your account out and in again (from Eddie's main window). Then, please apply the following procedure which should solve the critical problem caused by the alien Veep-VPN interface and wrong Eddie's interface choice: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/56643-stuck-in-a-broken-route-never-connects/?do=findComment&comment=225323 After the above, both OpenVPN and WireGuard connections should be possible. Kind regards

Hello! We have been informed that: Both in Singapore and Tokyo frantic work is ongoing to repair fiber lines. As a consequence you can see sub-optimal performance on all of our servers in Singapore and Tokyo. Kind regards

Hello! It's ISO 3166 used by Eddie. It does not necessarily reflect AirVPN management ideas on Taiwan's independence. Quite the contrary, if you consider that AirVPN management now operates a server in Taiwan but always refused to consider servers in mainland China and withdrew servers in Hong Kong before it was clawed back by mainland China. We do understand your complaint even for the reasons explained in this petition https://www.change.org/p/iso-international-organization-for-standardization-correct-taiwan-province-of-china-on-iso-3166-and-change-it-to-taiwan-let-tw-be-taiwan but Eddie Desktop edition considers ISO 3166 in its current code so it takes the current ISO denomination. Kind regards

I just tried it. The speeds are twice what I usually get for Japan and Singapore. I've been using airvpn for 8 years, so I am familiar with the typical speeds of various locations. To note, I am located in Asia, but not in the countries mentioned. I would love to see a server or two in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines.

This newest versions of Eddie fixed the issues I had in Android where Eddie suddenly crashed or disconnected and never connected again, and that's why I had to switch to the official Wireguard. But now I'm full using Eddie and I'm a very happy customer once again. Thank you devs.

So is it working? The other thing that often breaks port forwarding on pfsense is if there are any rules in the openvpn or wireguard "group" firewall rules since those group rules override individual interface rules.

@Fred H Hello! No domain names exist for bootstrap server IP addresses but we see that they are not blocked, in spite of what you wrote Eddie can talk with them fine. From the report the problem is different, apparently it's the VPN connection (by WireGuard in your case) that's blocked, probably you just need to require no restriction against UDP toward one of the WireGuard ports of our servers (1637, 51820). Kind regards

Hello! Thanks, problem understood. A bug fix is coming in the very near future. Kind regards

I've sent the crash report through support request.

Hello, this week the japan OpenVPN configuration is showing as Netherland. I haven't change anything and always use the same configuration (for months). I tried to re-generate the configuration but everything website (AirVPN too) is detecting me as in the Netherland instead of Japan. Here's the beginning of the configuration file: # -------------------------------------------------------- # Air VPN | https://airvpn.org | Monday 2nd of September 2024 [...] # OpenVPN Client Configuration # AirVPN_Japan_UDP-443-Entry3 # -------------------------------------------------------- client dev tun remote jp3.vpn.airdns.org 443 [...]

The Telegram CEO political arrest finally settled the debate. It's unjustifiable, AirVPN need to stay away from these lands or one day or another people in charge of the service will be sent there by a plane and put in a cage for 20 years.

To me this system is a naive ersatz of poor quality. Why let Amazon profile you as a specific VPN customer, and why donate to Amazon an entire VPN provider's customer database, when you can pay directly without intermediaries with Monero or Bitcoin? To me it's just another nonsense by the same people who have also abolished port forwarding with specious motivations, if I caught right the provider you wrote about.

… I'm not that old, though… 😕 Anyway, you're welcome.

Open your own thread and append your config as pastes or screenshots. You can link to this thread to say that this problem appears similar, but don't hijack others' threads, please.

When starting the connection from the app and not the quick settings tile. The tile doesn't update to show an active connection. I've submitted some other bugs to the support email since they contain logs I don't want to share publicly

May be it is all just snake oil but yesterday I was playing with the MTU settings of my OpenVPN client (SSL-wrapped) and for some reason the values around --tun-mtu 700 --mssfix 692 mtu improve the situation with the throttling quite visibly. SpeedTest shows that higher values (1000 or more) cause the speed to drop steeper and in larger steps, finally causing the complete freezing of transmission, lower values (500 or less) make the connection just slow and unreliable. It seems like 700 is sort of the golden middle. Also for Linux enabling BBR (Bottleneck Bandwidth and RTT) may increase the throughput. If your Linux kernel is recent enough (4.9 or later), add the following lines to /etc/sysctl.conf: net.core.default_qdisc=fq net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=bbr Then execute sysctl --system or reboot. And one more advice: switch cipher to CHACHA20-POLY1305, it seems that it's now supported by almost all AirVPN servers. It probably means next to nothing but as far as I understand in theory its presence is not that easily detectable by DPI in the SSL-encrypted traffic as AES. To switch add the following parameter to openvpn (if it's started manually): --data-ciphers CHACHA20-POLY1305 Or alternatively edit the data-ciphers line in the .conf file.

This is by far the most resilient vpn I use. There are so many features and the VPN auto connected. There are many servers to choose from and the speeds are very fast! 😁 5/5.

The new GPS Spoofing feature is interesting. After updating to 3.1 beta 2, "About" section still mentions

Hello! Some customers have contacted the support team asking for a comment on the port shadow attack described in CVE-2021-3773 and brought into the spotlight for the umpteenth time during the Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium 2024: https://citizenlab.ca/2024/07/vulnerabilities-in-vpns-paper-presented-at-the-privacy-enhancing-technologies-symposium-2024/ To explain why, unlike many other VPN services, AirVPN is not vulnerable to various attacks under the generic port shadow umbrella, please download the new paper and read below while watching table 2 on page 121: in our infrastructure public entry-IP addresses and public exit-IP addresses are not the same (M6). This is an absolute protection against ATIP, connection inference, and port forwarding overwrite and also makes port scan impossible (another reason for which port scan is impossible is given by additional isolation, see the end of the message) per-host connection limit is enforced (M3) making eviction re-route extremely difficult if not impossible static private IP address is implemented (M2) with WireGuard (it can be changed by explicit key renewal user's action) and highly likely with OpenVPN as long as the user connects to the same server with the same key, another (redundant) protection against port scan In our infrastructure additional protections are in place. We prefer not to disclose them all at the moment, we will just mention the block of any communication between nodes in the same virtual network either through private or public addresses. That's why, unlike any corporate VPN with shared resources, you can't contact any service inside the VPN (except the DNS), not even your own, from a machine connected to the same VPN in our infrastructure. Decapsulation as described on the paper is doomed to fail for this isolation/compartmentalization and this is also another reason for which port scans are not possible. TL;DR AirVPN infrastructure, according to the current state of the art in remediation and mitigation by security researchers as well as paper authors, is not vulnerable to the attacks described under the port shadow umbrella in this new paper.

I don't know if it's only for me but both SSL and SSH tunneling have got incredibly slow in the last several days, approximately since the beginning of the infamous throttling of YouTube (1st of August) or may be a couple of days later. I tried adding additional options for stunnel (socket = r:SO_OOBINLINE=yes; sni =; failover = rr; delay = yes), tried passing it through a DPI spoofer (byedpi, SpoofDPI) using proxychains: nothing helps at all, the speed still varies enormously, one moment it can be over 10 mbps, and 10 seconds later it almost stalls completely, or it may work fine for several minutes and then begin to degrade, or otherwise recover up to 10 mbps. It's completely unpredictable, and there are no errors in the log. Where is the problem? Is there a way to circumvent it?

The recommendations displayed by NewPipe and Invidious, which are exclusively based on the video you are watching right now, are to be preferred. If you switch the content category, the recommendations will switch completely. Of course, this necessitates willfully watching something else. YouTube on the other hand recommends you other videos of viewed channels and content of related channels, even if you are viewing a video completely unrelated to that content category right now. It just forcefully drags you back into your filter bubble, which is very far from decent. If it's really ought to be YouTube, a periodic reset of your viewed content, say, once or twice a month, is absolutely necessary (which of course means, never log into your Google account!). And I'm not even talking about the privacy aspect..

This did help me. I love you. I hope that's not weird.

Looks like the old.reddit method doesn't work anymore but found a great solution if you're a ublock origin or adguard user. copy/paste of reddit comment so blocked users can see it. Go to your uBlock Origin / AdGuard filter settings page and add this custom filter (in uBlock Origin it's under the "My filters" tab): reddit.com#%#//scriptlet('set-cookie-reload', 'reddit_session', '0') This will automatically create the reddit_session cookie as described in the post above. You have to make sure that you are using the latest uBlock Origin or AdGuard extension, because the cookie filter syntax has only been added recently to uBlock Origin. (The above filter only works with uBO version 1.53.0 or higher) Here are some more techy details about the cookie filter: It will create a session cookie, which will only last until the browser is closed. (This is good because see 2. and 3.) You will not be able to log-in to reddit while the cookie is set. (Also applies to manual method in the original post) If you want to log-in to reddit, you will have to remove or comment out the custom filter, then close and re-open your browser. Doing this will clear the session cookie and prevent your adblocker from automatically creating the fake session cookie again. You can comment out custom filters by prefixing them with an exclamation mark, e. g.: !reddit.com#%#//scriptlet('set-cookie-reload', 'reddit_session', '0') The cookie value is set to '0', this is a limitation of the new cookie filter syntax. Can't make it empty as of now unfortunately. It works fine with the value set to '0' though. reddit comment

The inconsistencies of EU policies were the reason most peope in the UK voted to get out of it. I don't want to open up that debate (is done and dusted anyway) but all this is a good example of a single EU member state legislating on such a fundamental citizen rights issue with what appears to be a total disregard to what the EU stance is or might be.

I find myself wondering about details of EU extradition processes. Would Italian prosecutors be able to make a credible request to another EU member to extradite officers of a company that ignored a block request under this Italian law? Would that have been a risk for the folks who operate Quad9, if they had refused? What if Hungary wanted to prevent its citizens from accessing web sites that are critical of their governments policies? Could they use what Italy is doing as a precedent? Where would other EU countries draw the line?

Hello! The problem: DCO can be used only by OpenVPN 2.6 (or higher version), it is not supported by 2.5.5, the OpenVPN version launched by Eddie in your case. Quickly solve the problem by telling Eddie to create its own interface and ignore DCO: from Eddie's main window select "Preferences" > "Networking" type eddie in the "VPN interface name" field click "Save" Alternatively you can configure Eddie to run OpenVPN 2.6 with DCO but at the moment DCO is highly experimental so if you want a stable environment just don't use DCO at the moment. If you want a VPN software working mainly in the kernel space then please consider WireGuard, as at this stage it's definitely more stable than OpenVPN with DCO. To switch to WireGuard via Eddie (you can then go back to OpenVPN anytime of course): from Eddie's main window select "Preferences" > "Protocols" uncheck "Automatic" select a line with WireGuard. The line will be highlighted click "Save" Kind regards

Perhaps Air could allow port forwarding on selected servers only and not all of them. This could allow for users that want to torrent, still being able to, but with a limited server choice while all the other servers could be kept 'clean'.

Excellent to see AirVPN give a detailed rationale for the inquiry. Bravo.

Airvpn is kind of a low profile VPN and it's very hacker/piracy friendly and free speech oriented. Exactly what France is not. Now, why would they bother to put server in a contry with one of the worst spitting on Internet freedom there is to Europe ? Mass surveillance and lots of effort to filter out piracy/porn websites (The Pirate Bay, Ygg Torrents), and a certain taste to block what they consider to be whatever they consider outside of the regime's reach (Rumble, Telegram). Let's not forget france seriously plan to kill whatever remain of Anonymity online in the name of counter terrorism. If anything, it's extremely unrecommanded to dwell in the internet with a french IP and I massively support AirVPN does not set foot on this dictatorship wannabe.

They also reserve the right to kill anyone with a drone strike at the push of a button. No trial needed.

Not only the internet. They give themselves the right to invade any country in the world who doesn't play under their rules.
