Hello! We're very glad to announce that Eddie Android edition 4.0.0 Beta 1 is now available. This is a major update: for the first time Eddie Android edition features AmneziaWG complete support. Eddie Android edition is a fully integrated with AirVPN, free and open source client allowing comfortable connections to AirVPN servers and generic VPN servers offering compatible protocols. Eddie 4.0.0 aims primarily at adding, besides the already available OpenVPN and WireGuard, a thorough and comfortable AmneziaWG support. AmneziaWG is a free and open source fork of WireGuard by Amnezia inheriting the architectural simplicity and high performance of the original implementation, but eliminating the identifiable network signatures that make WireGuard easily detectable by Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) systems. It can operate in several different ways, including a fallback, "compatibility mode" with WireGuard featuring anyway various obfuscation techniques. What's new in Eddie 4.0.0 AmneziaWG support Amnezia WireGuard API updated OpenSSL, OpenVPN3-AirVPN and WireGuard libraries see the complete changelog below AmneziaWG overview From the official documentation: https://docs.amnezia.org/documentation/amnezia-wg AmneziaWG offers: Dynamic Headers for All Packet Types (compatibility with WireGuard: YES) During tunnel initialization, the library generates a set of random constants applied to each of the four WireGuard packet formats: Init, Response, Data, Under‑Load. These constants: Replace predictable WireGuard packet identifiers; Shift offsets of Version/Type fields; Modify reserved bits. As a result, no two clients have identical headers, making it impossible to write a universal DPI rule. Handshake Length Randomization (compatibility with WireGuard: NO) In WireGuard, the Init packet is exactly 148 bytes, and the Response packet is exactly 92 bytes. AmneziaWG adds pseudorandom prefixes S1 and S2 (0-64 bytes by default): len(init) = 148 + S1 len(resp) = 92 + S2 Offsets of the remaining fields are automatically adjusted, and MAC tags are recalculated accordingly. In order to keep backward compatibility with WireGuard, S1 and S2 must be set to 0. Obfuscation Packets I1-I5 (Signature Chain) & CPS (Custom Protocol Signature) (compatibility with WireGuard: partial, with fallback) Before initiating a "special" handshake (every 120 seconds), the client may send up to five different UDP packets fully described by the user in the CPS format. In this way AmneziaWG can mimic perfectly QUIC, DNS and other protocols adding powerful methods to circumvent blocks. QUIC is particularly interesting as HTTP/3 is built on it and currently, from Chrome and other compatible browsers, 50% of traffic to/from Google is QUIC traffic. Therefore, blocking QUIC may have major disruptions for any ISP. Junk‑train (Jc) (compatibility with WireGuard: YES) Immediately following the sequence of I-packets, a series Jc of pseudorandom packets with lengths varying between Jmin and Jmax is sent. These packets blur the timing and size profile of the session start, significantly complicating handshake detection. Under‑Load Packet (compatibility with WireGuard: YES) In WireGuard, a special keep-alive packet (“Under-Load”) is used to bypass NAT timeouts. AmneziaWG replaces its fixed header with a randomized one, the value of which can be set manually. This prevents DPI from filtering short ping packets, ensuring stable tunnel connections, especially on mobile networks. How to use Eddie with AmneziaWG To enable AmneziaWG mode, just tap the connection mode available in the main and other views. It will rotate between WireGuard, AmneziaWG and OpenVPN. Set it to AmneziaWG. In its default AmneziaWG mode, Eddie will use all the possible obfuscation, except protocol mimicking, that keeps WireGuard compatibility, thus allowing connections to AirVPN servers. The default settings choice was possible thanks to the invaluable support of persons living in countries where VPN blocks are widespread. Such settings have been tested as working and capable to bypass the current blocking methods in various countries. You may consider to modify them if they are ineffective to bypass "your" specific blocks. In Settings > Advanced, you will find, at the bottom of the page, a new "Custom Amnezia WG directives" item. By tapping it you will summon a dialog that will let you customize any possible AmneziaWG parameter. You can maintain backward compatibility with WireGuard in the dialog WireGuard section, or enable the full AmneziaWG support in the Amnezia section, which is not compatible (at the moment) with AirVPN WireGuard servers. This mode will be mostly valuable in a not distant future, when AirVPN servers will start to support AmneziaWG natively. You may also enable QUIC or DNS mimicking for additional obfuscation efficacy. In order to maintain WireGuard backward compatibility, with or without QUIC or DNS mimicking, you must set: S1 = S2 = 0 Hn ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4} H1 ≠ H2 ≠ H3 ≠ H4 Furthermore, do not exceed the valid limit of the J parameters (anyway Eddie will not let you do it). In this preview version, Eddie's formal control of the input data is based on the following document. We strongly recommend you read it if you need to modify manually parameters: https://github.com/amnezia-vpn/amneziawg-linux-kernel-module?tab=readme-ov-file#configuration Please do not modify In parameters if you don't know exactly what you're doing. Eddie implements QUIC and DNS mimicking and random obfuscation packets for each specific "I" parameter (by using the corresponding "Generate" button). You can enable them with a tap on the proper buttons. You may mimic QUIC and DNS even to connect to WireGuard based servers. When you enable QUIC mimicking and you maintain WireGuard backward compatibility, you add a powerful tool against blocks, because the first packets will be actual QUIC packets. AmneziaWG will fall back to WireGuard compatibility very soon. However, when DPI and SPI tools, and demultiplexers in general, identify the initial QUIC flow, most of them will be unable to detect a WireGuard flow for several minutes. This has been tested thoroughly with deep packet inspection on Linux and FreeBSD based machines by AirVPN staff. Therefore, in different blocking scenarios the QUIC mimicking increases likelihood of successful block bypass. NOTE: the same does not happen with DNS mimicking. In this case DPI / SPI tools identify the stream initially as DNS, but are much quicker (just in a few dozens of packets) to identify the stream as WireGuard's, after the initial DNS identification. If you decide to test, please report at your convenience any bug and problem in this thread. If possible generate a report from the app in a matter of seconds: by tapping the paper plane icon on the Log view bar rightmost side you will generate a full system report which will include both log and logcat and have it sent to our servers. Then you just need to send us the link the app shows you (open a ticket if you prefer to do it in private).

We have kept the OP message to show the pervasiveness of the PRC's propaganda lackeys. We consider Taiwan (Republic of China) to be independent and autonomous from the PRC (People's Republic of China), as it is in fact. ipleak uses MaxMind and IANA databases to display results, and we are pleased that these are aligned with an anti-imperialist and democratic vision that is clearly unpalatable to the dictatorial regime of the PRC, which sees it as an obstacle to its expansionist ambitions.

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

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.

Hello! Please follow this message to quickly resolve the issue: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/26548-linux-ip-6-addr-add-failed/?do=findComment&comment=72069 The OP problem might be different so your case should not be discussed here. Kind regards

I mean, the guarantee is actually in mbps. I wish they guaranteed 4gbps!

While 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.

Hi Archaon1, I'm glad I could help you. Six months ago, I was just a newbie, but thanks to the community's help, I grew rapidly. Now, I can finally help others too. That's the meaning of a community. Haha, it's really satisfying to help others. 🎉🎉🎉

Hello! 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!

Logbook of an old salt, written on the first day of a fresh two-year voyage aboard the proud AirVPN fleet: Brethren and sister privateers, The yearly discount chest has been opened once again, and I have filled my hold with twenty-four more months of wind. While the quartermaster counts the gold, let this weathered mariner raise a weather-beaten voice: We need a berth in Poland. One single, sturdy server flying the white-and-red banner would save an entire nation of sailors from slow death by a thousand of exceptions. Behold the enemies that lie in wait in Polish waters: The heavy galleon Poczta Polska (Polish Post) and her tender Envelo (online postage)The ironclad banks that fire broadsides the moment a foreign IP drops anchorThe judicial fortresses and their batteriesLegal archives, university libraries, and even honest merchant carracks All of them roar: “No foreign keel shall pass!” The only way to trade with them is to rip plank after plank from our own hulls – dozens, sometimes hundreds of holes in iptables so the cannonballs of “access denied” fly straight through. (Call it split-tunneling if ye be landlubbers; we call it scuttling the ship to save the cargo.) I have sailed these waters for years in the AirVPN flotilla, and the oceans grow darker every season. Ports that once welcomed us now slam the gates. The great YouTube leviathan mistakes every one of our frigates for a pirate bot and demands we strike our colours and show papers none of us will ever sign. So we dance the server hornpipe – Netherlands to Switzerland to Sweden to Canada – tacking frantically until one harbour opens its arms for a fleeting moment, only to chase us out again before the song is over. Need to see them Canadian iron beasts racing the prairie? We glide in under Japanese colours, drop anchor for a fleeting moment of peace… then, the instant the port starts sniffing at our false ensign, we cut the cable and fly before the black-list cannonade roars. This be not the fault of our admirable Admiral and the crew – ‘tis the spirit of the age trying to chain the very sea itself – but one safe haven on Polish soil would turn a gauntlet of fire into a calm inland lake for all local hands. May fair winds fill AirVPN sails forever! May the fleet grow stronger every year! Hail Poland! Hail AirVPN! Hail all ye beautiful bastards and bitches who still believe the high seas should be free! Yours in rum and packets, An old Polish privateer 🇵🇱

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! 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

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…

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.

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.

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

Thank you!

Hello there, I had the same issue on Tahoe and this fixed it for me: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/70745-eddie-cant-connect-to-any-server/?tab=comments#comment-249545 Hope that helps!

I must commend the AI here – I wouldn't have thought of asking you whether you installed Eddie from scratch or copied over the profile. Most of the times those AIs catch mentions of one or two words in contexts of other words and hallucinate about the rest of the meaning, but this one was a good answer.

Hello! 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

I'll look into it, thank you

For the sake of so-called security, Windows' system permission design can sometimes be quite annoying. When I installed Windows, I configured Huorong Security Software with the highest privileges, locking the core Windows processes from being tampered with. For any operations requiring high privileges, I use Huorong Security Software's toolbox, which can solve the problem with a single click, saving me a lot of trouble.

Hi Emule, Hard to follow someone with 35 posts but it worked out! I was a bit suspicious when you asked about deleting system32's files but my VPN is working fine now ^^ Thanks a lot, I wouldn't have found it on my own. For the data : i did the suppression of all the files and the reboot of the network

I installed AmneziaVPN, downloaded generated configuration (Nederland) UPD 1637 and connected. It works with and without these changes in [Interface] section. I did not change any other config values in AmneziaVPN. Now, I tried to use EddieUI with default params and it works too! Looks like domestic regulators have holiday in Uzbekistan... I will try again tomorrow.

Please 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

Hello! 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

Hello! Yes. The kernel already does a wonderful job to distribute fairly bandwidth, aided by the excellent ability to scale of WireGuard. OpenVPN is a little more problematic but we force a round robin distribution of peers on different instances to balance core load. Where a limit must be enforced artificially is in the amount of concurrent connections INSIDE the tunnel. Normally we allow the maximum amount supported by a powerful home router, i.e. 20000 concurrent connections per node. This limit is usually not even noticed by the users as it is well beyond the usage of virtually all of our user base. Kind regards

No, take it away.

Read Finanztip's article on internet providers first, it's got most of that info. No such thing with DSL or Fiber. Though, you should care about latency as it impacts the throughput. Well, I've been using Telekom for more than a decade now (with a short two year pause when I lived in Hannover where I had to use Vodafone Kabel DE, it was enough to never subscribe to them again). Never had problems with VPN connections with Telekom.

@oilers You know I was playing around with transmission and have come to the same conclusion - just stay with what works! qBittorrent it is!!!

Thank you 🙏

Use 'Policy table' not Object networking. Then create a NAT rule. I would prefer that they catch up with the competition on the basics (Like supporting IPv6 in VPNs), rather than reinventing yet another way to manage firewall rules 😕

Hey there, Taiwan is a provincial administrative region of China, an inalienable part of China’s territory. But when I checked my IP on ipleak.net, I saw Taiwan was shown with those outdated flags, which is totally wrong. These flags don’t reflect the fact that Taiwan belongs to China. Using them misrepresents Taiwan’s status and goes against the One - China principle. It’s really important to fix this mistake. Please correct the display and stop using such wrong flags. Let’s make sure the info about Taiwan is right, in line with the One - China principle. Thanks for handling this!

Hello! We're very glad to inform you that a new 10 Gbit/s full duplex server located in Toronto (Ontario, Canada), is available: Kornephoros. 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. Kornephoros 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 . Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or issue. Kind regards & datalove AirVPN Staff

Hello! You could split the traffic of the application you run to access CS2 or Steam (a browser and/or a dedicated game client, we don't know). All the traffic of the system would continue flowing into the VPN tunnel except the specific Steam related applications traffic. While no trivial solution is available for macOS at the moment (you could consider virtualization), on Linux you can achieve app traffic splitting with the AirVPN Suite 2, on Windows with WireSock, on Android with Eddie Android edition. Kind regards

Hi @OpenSourcerer, no, I`m not Sj0rs. If you scroll a bit down in his guide you wil lsee I "enhanced" his guide with Pictures, mentioning that this is based on his guide. As you can see his Guide does not have any IPv6 setup and as this was requested I thought it would be good to include it. While testing on my own how to acceive it, I found several "misconfiguratins" in his guide. Therefore I thought it might be good to create a complete new one. And to be boldly honest, yes the old guide should be marked as "deprecated" once I got the time to finish this guide. (Hope to do this today). Same as, if someone writes another guide adding value to the config can superseed my guide. Sj0rs has not ever replyed in his own guide, so I think he won`t even care what happes with his guide. He didn`t even bother to add pictures when asked nicely in the forum. If you feel it`s rude from me putting up a guide, let me know I can spend my time with other things then. My Setup is like 99% working so no need for me to post this here, I just wanted to give something back to the community as some of the guidance I`ve found in this forum.

Ok, so i got chown working, the "Terminal" app did not have permission to modify system files and i missed the notification advising this. After fixing that i had to change wireguard-go and wg to be owned by root to allow Eddie to work, but it is now connecting.

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.

Hello! The problem affects those users who run Eddie Desktop edition with OpenVPN and never logged out for more than a year, or use OpenVPN clients with configuration files generated before 2021. Since Eddie Desktop edition re-downloads certificates and keys only when the operator logs in, locally some certificates have expired because we extend their expiration date automatically at least one year in advance (three years normally). Please try the following procedure to quickly resolve the problem: run Eddie on Eddie's main window uncheck "Remember me" log your account out log your account in (you'll need to re-enter your AirVPN credentials) try again a connection Kind regards

@itsmeprivately Hello! Please try the following settings (usually they are strictly necessary to bypass China blocks): switch to OpenVPN (if you haven't already done so) by tapping the icon "VPN Type" on the main view. Each tap switches between WireGuard and OpenVPN. force connection over TCP to port 443 in the following way: open "Settings" and expand "AirVPN" by tapping on it tap "Default OpenVPN protocol", select "TCP" and tap "OK" tap "Default OpenVPN port", select "443" and tap "OK" tap "Quick connection mode", select "Use default options only" and tap "OK" Finally test again connections to various servers in various locations. Kind regards

Seconded. I'm using the pro++ https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists/main/domains/pro.plus.txt as it seems a better compromise for my usage.

FYI, links for Eddie for Android are broken ;)

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.

AirVPN does more than just purchase a server, route all traffic and count the money. They are actually interested in the privacy, which makes me to subscribe every year again.

Yes, it's annoying. I know your thinking, unknown TOR exit runners, you want to help the TOR network by providing one more exit node, because kind of I am afraid of possible legal consequences running a TOR exit node over my ISP line but now I'm behind a VPN and I want to help; it's okay so far. But it's not okay to not take into consideration that some of us use services and websites which constantly try to prevent TOR exit IPs from viewing them (not limited to TOR, some try to block all anonymizer services). A TOR server will be listed on a TOR exit servers list even after you shut it down and as long as it's there we suffer from blocks. Blocks we are trying to circumvent; that's what a proxy service is good for, right? In addition, AirVPN run two exits themselves. Given the bandwidth of these servers (100 MBit/s) I don't think your contribution is a great gain in overall TOR performance as your internet connection is most probably not that fast and not that stable (I assume you use your internet to watch Netflix, play games online and the like, creating traffic which lowers performance of the node). Third, you expose AirVPN and yourself to attacks from the internet by those who want to literally destroy TOR. Attacks on AirVPN's servers will cause line problems, line problems harm the user's experience. You as a TOR exit runner (although behind a VPN) expose yourself to attacks, too: It's not the AirVPN server who gets infected because a vulnerability in the TOR software is being abused; it's your computer. Your computer gets infected, and it's most probably your personal computer with your personal information on it. Your antivirus software is just a bunch of algorithms, too, it's not supposed to detect 100% of vulnerabilites in software and prevent their abuse. And: It's you who will be marked an extremist. If you think it's easy these days to help TOR you are mistaken. Maybe installation and setup is easy, to preserve your own security by running this piece of software sadly is not. So, before you start that TOR software again, think twice. Thank you.
