  1. what's a mini computer for you? If you do build or buy a pfsense box use your current router as a wifi access point. it won't go to waste.
  2. The problem is not the servers but your route to the servers. All the Toronto servers are in the same datacenter so the route is basically the same except for the last couple hops. Your route must have been having problems. That doesn't mean your ISP is necessarily at fault. The speed test which is hosted by your ISP is basically irrelevant because it doesn't show what conditions are like outside your ISP backbone.
  3. first rule of Fight Club is you don't talk about Fight Club.
  4. I have an account with sceneaccess, iptorrents, revolutiontt, and torrentleech and use a seedbox at seedboxes.cc with autodl-irssi. but these days I can record most of the shows I watch from terrestrial ATSC broadcasts. and because I have faster internet at home now I'll probably drop the seedbox when the subscription runs out and may or may not keep using the private trackers. I sort of like not having to worry so much about ratio. good thing is my buffer is large enough I shouldn't have to worry for a while. Whats your ISP speed? Private trackers are good if you want content now but set up an auto system like to duckie doesn't matter if it takes a few hours runs while I am sleeping or at work. 120 down / 11 up mbit/s Since I run a linux VM I'd try to get rtorrent/rutorrent running with autodl-irssi. If I can't do that then I'll look at duckie. Never heard of it before.

  6. does one need an invite to the usenet you use?
  7. the latest release does only use windows firewall in windows OS. the latest experimental which should be released soon does not rely on windows firewall so it can be used with any setup.
  8. If you have a DSL connection you should use 1492 in your router. Otherwise 1500 should be used.
  9. @germain85, Asus merlin openvpn client gui has an option for automatic firewall. there's no need to have a script running for more firewall stuff. and your port forwarding IP tables look correct. so it seems you DO know how to configure your router.
  10. https://airvpn.org/topic/18625-eddie-211beta-available/ read the changelog
  11. assuming openvpn running on router have to use iptables like tomato and dd-wrt for TUN to LAN. the web GUI does WAN to LAN. if people are not running openvpn on router then we should discourage them from opening ports at all as it's a security hazard (correlation attack). anyway, this question gets asked about every other day. really tired of people not searching the forum.
  12. They make too much money to care about losing customers. I don't know what you've heard. I thought I read Netflix isn't doing so well. This move to block VPN was one to please their masters (not the customers) and probably has and will hurt them. But, they probably figure that's better than losing relationship with their masters.
  13. the problem is people posting questions without searching the board first. arrogant and negligent to think the question has never been asked before.
  14. Network lock is only for windows. certainly not. network lock works in linux using iptables. I assume it uses iptables in OSX too.
  15. haha, I appreciate your patience. Well, yes I did have qbittorrent open. So, as a test I opened up Deluge (another torrent client) and lo and behold, it worked! But it seems a little strange to me, because I didn't configure Deluge to use my forwarded port. It's using a random port. I'll play around with it. One thing I'm noticing is that it isn't uploading anything - only downloading. Perhaps if I pick my forwarded port, then it will upload, as well. This is progress! EDIT: I tried the TCP test again, with qbittorrent open, and it succeeded! And qbittorrent is working, as well! SUCCESS! (note, I didn't do anything different since my last post about the firewall rules. I just had to start a fresh torrent, and that seemed to help.) Thanks for your help!! just be sure to disable NAT-PMP, UPNP in your torrent client. Those work to open a port automatically which you don't need and don't work with your VPN setup.
  16. I haven't looked at the link in the OP but if network lock was used there should be no "leak" even during reconnection.
  17. I have the openvpn client running in the router. But I didn't enable the "OpenVPN Server/Daemon" (which is the option directly above openvpn client in the router options). In my experience prior to using a vpn, I would just forward a port on my router, and that was it. I didn't realize that I now need to be running a server, too. qbittorrent is your server.
  18. is the server actually running and listening on the assigned port?
  19. destination is the the LAN IP of the device that's running the server to which you're trying to forward port(s). the port is the one that AirVPN assigns you in your client config section of this web site.
  20. try different protocols and ports. it's certainly not a theoretical or technological barrier with openvpn or AirVPN that's causing this
  21. I'm using windows 10 but haven't worked to confirm this. I do note that the connection carrying the data is supposedly contacting report port UDP53, so made to look like DNS. Did i see that correctly?
  22. as zhang says, many problems. I hope I've never forced into using it. but, openvpn supports ipv6. some VPN providers are already using it. so, shouldn't be a problem to transition if needed.
  23. Hello ! This is because geographic proximity doesn't guarantee greater speed, since your ISP might have better connections and/or deals with ISPs located in other countries. It's not because Air purposely makes some servers higher quality than others. But as is common with networking, there's many potential factors Sent to you from me with datalove This is true but has nothing to do with the topic in this thread. Eddie scores based on the info it receives regarding the servers and your latency to each server. But, Eddie has no way to know which server is actually faster for you. That has to be tested by the user. I believe they configure Eddie in a manner so that by default USA users use Canadian servers. I can't think of another reason why USA servers would get 0 stars with speed as the scoring rule.
