New 10 Gbit/s server available (US)
Hypertext1071 and 2 others reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
Hello! We're very glad to inform you that a new 10 Gbit/s full duplex server located in Los Angeles, California, is available: Revati. 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 it 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. Revati supports OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH, TLS 1.3, OpenVPN tls-crypt and 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. You can check the status as usual in our real time servers monitor , by clicking the server name. Direct link: https://airvpn.org/servers/Revati Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or issue. Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff -

2 pointsHello! After a year of using AirVPN I'm very happy with the product. Website has no bloat whatsoever and it's super easy to find what you are looking for. A huge plus goes out for having an active forum available! Much better option compared to social media idiocies. Also port forwarding has been executed greatly - many other VPN services miss that altogether but even those which support it can't match AirVPN's easy-to-use robust system. Config generator is a great plus too since I'm using both WireGuard app and WireSock depending on the situation and needs. Both run just fine and very few VPN's could match this level of usability. I sometimes have dissapointing speeds with P2P, but usually a simple server change fixes it. Overall very happy customer. Please have a beer AirVPN staff, you've deserved it!

ANSWERED Linux ip -6 addr add failed
chrisjones.unixmen and one other reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
Hello! This is interesting. We are gradually activating IPv6 on every server, but you have IPv6 disabled at OS level, and this causes a fatal error. For the moment, you can: - Reactivate IPv6 No good reason is known to disable IPv6 at OS level. If you are scared about IPv6 leak when connecting to servers without IPv6 support, a cleaner solution is simply blocking IPv6 traffic with ip6tables. OR - Append the following directives in your .ovpn files: pull-filter ignore "route-ipv6" pull-filter ignore "redirect-gateway ipv6" pull-filter ignore "dhcp-option DNS6" pull-filter ignore "tun-ipv6" pull-filter ignore "ifconfig-ipv6" redirect-gateway def1 bypass-dhcp This will skip IPv6 configuration of tunnel and avoid your error. We are considering related options to Config Generator. Kind regards -

More clarity on server load & performance indicators
Zerema reacted to Tech Jedi Alex for a post in a topic
How can the load percentage be conveyed even clearer in your opinion? Those are highly subjective things depending on your setup, and I don't want to see them as data points in a server overview showing factual data valid for everyone the same way. Load (= bandwidth usage), number of clients and RTT between the servers are factual data valid for everyone, whereas your own latency and "connection quality metrics" are the result of your client's configuration, connection type and its config, ISP, routes, etcetc. I mean, what is even the definition of "connection quality" in your own words? Preferably something that is valid for you, me and the random reader of this thread at the same time. -

ANSWERED Plex Media server port forwarding issue
KnightRiderX420 reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
Thank you very much. For the readers: the key information here and other threads where the problem could be resolved swiftly is that it does not matter how you configure it: Plex will always listen to port 32400 of the VPN interface. Therefore, AirVPN's port "re-mapping" function comes handy. Once you choose a random port for your Plex server on your AirVPN account port panel, fill the "Local" field with "32400". Reach the Plex server from the Internet on the port remotely forwarded and the VPN server will take care to forward the packets to port 32400 of your local VPN interface. Kind regards -

Personal IPv6 exit IP as alternative to port forwarding
larry.munday reacted to CentralPivot for a post in a topic
With IPv6 allowing practically infinite IPs it should be possible to assign a dedicated IPv6 address to each connection, allowing incoming connections to any port to be forwarded. This would be a great way to circumvent the port forwarding restrictions on IPv4 that exist because multiple clients have to share the same exit IP, and I think would make for a nice optional feature. -
1 pointHello! Many thanks for all these information and insight. Indeed I completely agree with what you state. Meanwhile, I identified the culprit of plasmashell crashing: a system resource plasmoid I use on the Plasma desktop background. If I remove it, no crashes happen anymore. So the safe solution is to report it to its owner/author. Despite this I was unable to crash and end Eddie GUI gracefully, so I might have misidentified this happening. That said I will keep an eye and report again if I find a reproducible way. And I understand this is beyond your control and thank you very much for the feedback. Kind regards!

Personal IPv6 exit IP as alternative to port forwarding
CentralPivot reacted to larry.munday for a post in a topic
I’m with @CentralPivot on this Topic. Would be lovely for FileSharing etc. and I don’t see any Downsides @Tech Jedi Alex suggests applying. Using a shared IPv6 obviously needs to be the Default. But @CentralPivot seems to suggest for it to work in a similar Way as Port Forwarding does now: Activate it and get a completely forwarded v6 for In&Out instead of a Port on a v4. (Having a (semi) fixed v6 helps with getting a positive Rating in BitTorrent Swarms.) Maybe a fresh IPv6 on Reconnects as an Option? For my Use Cases Peers without v6 are completely irrelevant to be honest, but v4 Port Forwarding doesn’t need to stop working for that Feature to exist? In the other Direction there are quite a few ISPs in the World that only do v4 via Gateways for their Users, because getting IPv4-Addresses for their Customers is impossible. IPv6 has been a "Draft" since 1998 and a Standard since late 2017… -

Servers in Sweden have low utilization
Hypertext1071 reacted to Tech Jedi Alex for a post in a topic
Looking in Eddie, I can deduce a possible reason. If the scoring rule is set to Speed, which is the default, only four servers actually get a non-zero score, putting only those four into consideration of the Connect to best server function. The client count reflects that. I quick-tested a connection to Sweden on Android, and Copernicus was chosen to be the best server.. huh. Also interesting: The first three are hosted by Altushost, Segin is Netrouting, rest seems to be Kustbandet. ISP might play a role here, too. -

Maximizing qBittorrent speeds
go558a83nk reacted to Hypertext1071 for a post in a topic
Hi all, I've always been trying to maximize my seeding speeds when using qBittorrent, and a lot of information I found online was not very helpful. My setup is qBittorrent 4.3.9 from hotio with Gluetun on TrueNAS Fangtooth. My best speeds have been obtained on the servers Taiyangshou and Vindemiatrix with WireGuard. I am in North America, but I don't think latency matters as much as I originally thought for P2P use cases. These two servers in the Netherlands have been very nice and I definitely recommend trying out different servers. In my use case, I have hundreds of larger torrents, maybe half are 50 GB+. I have found that since I am using hard drives, the random reads will quickly overwhelm them even with ARC and L2ARC, thus setting the "Global maximum number of upload slots" is very useful (this is the only one I have turned on in the "Connection" tab). This limits the total number of peers you can upload to globally, and the idea is that you limit the total amount of random reads this way. The magic number that works the best for me is 50, and I recommend trying around this range by increments of 5 might work nice. Additionally, I could keep increasing the "Global maximum number of upload slots" without much rise in iowait, but total throughput would decrease. Therefore, when optimizing this setting it is a balance between enough slots to saturate your bandwidth, but not too much where it spreads the bandwidth too thin and negatively impacts total throughput. I have also attached the advanced settings that I changed which seemed to make the greatest impact. Send buffer watermark: 6144 KiB Send buffer low watermark: 3072 KiB Send buffer watermark factor: 200 % Socket backlog size: 4096 I hope this is helpful! Best, Hypertext1071 Edit: For further tuning this might be helpful: https://github.com/felikcat/seedbox-tutorial. Edit 2: Using the settings from here: https://github.com/felikcat/seedbox-tutorial, including the sysctl configuration completely saturate my line speed. I was trying to search for qBittorrent in particular, and thus wasn't able to find results that were generally helpful, such as network tuning. -

Whonix-Love reacted to Staff for a post in a topic
Hello and welcome! Another interesting use case is when you live in a country where trying to access the Tor network raises a red flag on you but the HTTP/3 (QUIC) traffic does not. So you first circumvent the blocks via some adequate VPN related protocol that looks like QUIC and only then you fire up Tor, so the regime can't trivially infer that you're trying to use Tor. Sometimes it is more practical and safer than struggling to find Tor bridges: a risk assessment is due, on a case by case basis. Kind regards -

1 pointHello! Be aware that 4 Mbit + 4 Mbit/s of guaranteed allocation is great for the pricing of AirVPN. Our competitors offer 0.0 (best effort, no minimum allocation guaranteed). Please consider that if residential ISPs in Europe had all of their customers connected simultaneously and requiring full bandwidth at the same time, the allocation by most of such ISPs (if performed equally for each customer) would be between 0.1 and 10 Mbit/s. The biggest ISPs in Europe (example: TIM in Italy) have an average per residential customer consumption (fixed lines: in mobility much less) of 190 GB/month, which on average means 0.58 Mbit/s throughout the month. Residential networks are normally designed and sized on the basis of these values with congestion control (traffic shaping) during peak hours or any unexpected event. Guaranteeing no overselling beyond 4 + 4 Mbit/s was and is even nowadays a significant effort by AirVPN. In practice, as you can see on the "Top User Speed" chart, users can easily beat 500 Mbit/s, there is no congestion. But if all customers connected at the same time (assuming a fair distribution on all servers) then everyone would anyway have 4 Mbit/s (4 + 4 server side). Kind regards

1 pointWhile I love that you continue to support OpenVPN would you please reconsider a few WireGuard‑only 10–20 Gbit servers to quantify the uplift for users who prioritize raw speed and low latency? It’s my understanding that OpenVPN server processes are single‑threaded and CPU‑intensive. Co‑hosting OpenVPN and WireGuard on the same high‑capacity host (10–20 Gbit) can constrain aggregate throughput under load because per‑core bottlenecks caps per‑host headroom when many OpenVPN clients are active. In cities where you have multiple 20 Gbit servers like New York dedicating one to Wireguard doesn't seem unreasonable? Thank you for your consideration.
-
1 pointHello! With WireGuard it's a very good choice as the DNS server IP address (10.128.0.1) is also the VPN gateway address, on every and each server since the WireGuard network is one. With OpenVPN, you have different subnet on every server though and you can't rely on a fixed address. 10.4.0.1 is available on every server for DNS queries but does not respond to ping. You could consider to extract the gateway from the tun interface settings at each connection and ping that gateway. Kind regards

1 pointPlease add more tunneling options! Day by day censorship around the world becomes worse and worse, OpenVPN and Wireguard is already completely blocked in many countries because it is easily detectable using DPI. Since the mid 2010's people out there have been working very hard on much more censorship-resilient solutions rather than simple-to-detect SSH and SSL-wrapping. The days of the games of privacy are over, now VPNs are more and more used by the people around the world to break the information bubbles created by their oppressive governments. Here are some examples of the new tunneling methods that you could add to your services: https://github.com/erebe/wstunnel https://github.com/cbeuw/Cloak https://github.com/v2fly/v2ray-core https://github.com/XTLS/Xray-core

1 pointHello! Not anymore, and even less in the near future. HTTP/3 is quickly spreading. Today, HTTP/3 is used by 36.5% of all the websites, including major web sites inside countries that enforce blocks against VPN. Furthemore, blocking UDP as such is no more realistic, not even in China, where UDP has become an instrumental protocol for many companies in any sector (video streaming, video conference, VoIP, marketing, social media marketing, regime propaganda and more), for regime aligned or regime owned activities. In China you have a near 100% success rate and no shaping (apart from the normal shaping for anything outside China) with the current Amnezia "weak obfuscation" (no CPS) implementation, i.e. at the moment you don't even need QUIC mimicking (which is anyway available and very effective). Currently, bypassing blocks via UDP than via TCP is more efficient in China. At the moment there is nothing more effective than mimicking QUIC with the signature / fingerprint of an existing web site that's not blocked, and you have this option right now. We see > 95% success rate, which is better than the success rates of SSH (not exceeding 75%), shadowsocks and XRay, V2Ray etc (but a lot faster!). The success rate is similar to any VPN protocol over HTTP/2, but, again, dramatically faster. We're glad to know it. It is also very flexible. Thanks to CPS, you may mimic any transport layer protocol built on UDP, for example DNS, QUIC, SIP. Kind regards

Permanent Kill Switch for Eddie Client
Axarius reacted to Sanctioner for a post in a topic
I currently run a linux firewall without eddie and just use openvpn client. here is what i did to protect against dns leaks and maintain privacy. i don't use windows because of privacy concerns so i don't know how well this translates. assuming you have a layer 3/4 firewall, you can try this. the network: set the interface to start disabled on bootup. this is not necessary, but will work if you're firewall is not default. then you can set your firewall before the interface is open. nothing can leak during boot because the interface did not come up. in the firewall: set policy to block on input (inbound), output, and forward (or whatever windows equivalent is). this should be the default action in case there are no specific rules to catch particular traffic. setting this means nothing passes the firewall unless you explicitly allow it. set all rules with tracking (ct state), such that no inbound traffic is allowed unless it is a response from a request you sent out. only exception is icmp and other network diagnostic protocols like traceroute, which in my opinion should be open. icmpv6 should be selectively open since it also does network setup. log all blocked traffic on the physical interface: open source and destination port 67/68, udp, inbound and outbound so your ISP can give you an IP. configure your client to not accept the dns it will give you. open destination upd port 53 or 853 only for specific IPs, typically a public DNS that advertises no logs. this is your fall back in case vpn drops or if you connect to vpn using a domain name. your ISP will see this traffic, but it will not be destined to your ISP DNS. it will pass through and go to the server you specify. i am not yet convinced encrypted dns actually hides your dns, but i would consult with a network admin. open destination tcp/udp port 1194 (or whatever port you are using for VPN). Do not use port 443 for VPN as that is the same port for https website traffic. Note: broadly speaking, destination port 53 and 853 will not be open, blocking dns leaks. this is permanent i used to have to open port 80 for AirVPN IPs to make the initial connection, but I don't see this in my firewall anymore, so it may not be necessary. if you see this in your firewall logs when attempting a vpn connection, apply this rule in the same format as above, but make sure it is limited to only just the AirVPN IPs as this would otherwise allow normal website traffic. on the tunnel interface: open source and destination port 67/68, udp, inbound and outbound so Airvpn can give you an IP. you can use AirVPN dns, or create a rule to use the public dns of your choice like on the physical interface. open destination port 53 outbound on the 10/8 IP range, or if you have a way to limit it to just the DNS that you get with VPN, that'll work. (AirVPN will give you an IP starting with 10.) open destination port ntp outbound on the 10/8 IP range (to keep the time accurate on your devices) open destination tcp port 80,443 outbound, for website traffic. 8443 for websockets if you use things like chat/voice on a website app like discord. Ongoing: open any other ports you may be using, such as Steam IPs. Check your firewall logs any time something doesn't work, and add those ports. exhibit discernment about whether to open a port, as you may see crap trying to leak out of your network, not just dns. this is expected and is keeping your stuff private. speedtest sites like to use port 8080, so open destination port 8080 (ct state new) if you want to test your speed, and on inbound, open source port 8080 (ct state established) Note: broadly speaking, destination port 53 and 853 will not be open, blocking dns leaks. this is permanent Extra Notes: starting or stopping your vpn will not change any firewall rules. you will not have access to websites unless vpn is up. this will not work if you're using port 443 for your tunnel. the tunnel port and website port needs to be different. in some countries, this may not be possible. for every outbound destination port (ct state new) opened, there should be a corresponding inbound source port (ct state established) opened as well. traffic is 2 way, outgoing request, incoming response this may not be comprehensive. my firewall has a lot more rules and i may have missed something. view your firewall logs to see what is being blocked, and see whether you need to open it. This should absolve the need for a network lock, and maintain privacy during bootup and anytime eddie is not running. check your firewall logs for traffic on port 53 over the wan interface. these will be dns leaks you prevented. A quick note about windows: Microsoft overrides the hosts files and looks for various microsoft domains it uses for telemetry gathering. it will ignore these rules. this means the standards government hosts files are no longer being followed. this is a violation of long standing networking standards and causes people to reduce trust in the rest of the windows network setup. because of this, you should no longer trust that your firewall will not be overridden by Windows and allow dns traffic through even if you explicitly blocked it. Microsoft has admitted to running a keylogger since Windows 10. i mean ... my god. linux has come a long way in usability. you no longer have to be a hacker to run it well. i would make an attempt to convert to linux. it has been 30 years since computers were around. it is no longer acceptable to be computer-illiterate. old world literacy means you know how to use a feather quill pen. modern literacy means you know how to work your way around a computer. know the tool you use to communicate. linux is a different paradigm, but it is still just a computer. It would be great if somewhere on this site is pinned exact instructions for windows. it will help those concerned and those who don't yet know they should be. for anyone knowledgeable enough, please feel free to correct any of this if it is incorrect. share the knowledge! i don't frequent this site. admins have permission to edit this. -s -

1 pointIf 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.

Bluetit, a core component of the AirVPN-SUITE, is a lightweight D-Bus controlled system daemon providing VPN connectivity through OpenVPN 3 AirVPN. Bluetit exposes a D-Bus interface which can be used by client applications in order to control the daemon and provide full interaction and connectivity with the whole AirVPN infrastructure. The manual covers Bluetit infrastructure and architecture and provides a complete reference for all the AirVPN’s classes on which the suite is based. The goal is to give any developer who wishes to write a Bluetit client, or a tool providing AirVPN inter-connectivity, a complete reference about the internals of both Bluetit daemon and the AirVPN–SUITE C++ classes. The tool to swiftly interact with the AirVPN infrastructure, repeatedly required by multiple AirVPN client developers in the past, is available and fully documented now. The document is a significant step forward in the VPN market and a further AirVPN's commitment to transparency and openness..The availability of a Developer's Reference Manual allows, in fact, any user or developer to successfully and proficiently build an AirVPN client to best suit her or his own needs. Should you decide to have a paper copy of the document, please consider that it is typeset for double side printing. Bluetit Developer's Reference Manual has been written and typeset in the unrivaled (ça va sans dire) LaTeX 2ε and it is released under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 International You can download the manual here: https://gitlab.com/AirVPN/AirVPN-Suite/-/blob/master/docs/Bluetit-Developers-Reference-Manual.pdf directly from this message: Bluetit-Developers-Reference-Manual.pdf or in the AirVPN Suite for Linux download section. Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

1 pointAIRVPN 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

ANSWERED Stop running Tor servers behind AirVPN

By using Tor behind an AirVPN node, you are blacklisting dozens of websites for no reason. IRC servers such as Freenode have been blocked, and now even imgur is blocked from uploading because it thinks its Tor. Heze is a good server and its one of only two on the West Coast, so please stop running Tor behind AirVPN nodes. -

ANSWERED AirVPN does not recognize ICANN authority anymore
Ffrankt124 reacted to GMPSQ for a post in a topic
The United States is an enemy of the Internet. More and more our technology and communications are captured illegaly and stored for many years and then used against us in court. The government seems to sincerely believe that it owns the Internet and regulary hacks into foreign servers to retrieve data, seizes domain names, etc. and any citizen who can be considered a hacker under broad laws will be thrown in prison. My warning as a US citizen is to watch out, encrypt, keep everything secure, keep data offshore, and avoid any US-influenced entities such as ICANN. Thank you AirVPN for the great continued service. I've been using multiple VPN connections almost constantly for the past year everywhere and as far as I can see that will continue
