I read a post in the past that stated your future plans for Eddie include the ability to use it for any VPN configuration, not just AirVPN. Is that still a goal? Will it be in v. 3?

Uh oh. More Atlanta problems? Azha appears to be having problems too and it just rejected my connection.

Since you mentioned bad routing I humbly suggest you trace the route to the servers you like to use day to day, especially when you notice changes in speed. It could be that routing is changing depending on the demand your ISP is seeing, maintenance, etc. Since routes are often asymmetric it's also a good idea to catalog the reverse route - the route from the VPN server back to the ISP router nearest you (not your IP because depending on your setup it might be the first hop).

I wonder why do you think 512 is a bad choice? I use 2048000byte in buffer settings which is about 2Mb and it helps maximize my speed at all times interesting. I had tried high buffers way back when I used an asus router for openvpn and it wouldn't accept higher than 512. but, 2MB is accepted on my pfsense box. testing now.

I believe it's mostly a matter of datacenters not meeting connectivity, speed, and bandwidth requirements.

what have you changed/tried so far? you'll have to help us help you. we can't read your mind. and again, why do you want to use the openvpn GUI? How can we argue in favor of Eddie if we don't know your concerns?

pfsense sells hardware that I believe is quite capable of running openvpn over 100mbit/s if i understand correctly. or you can probably build your own cheaper.

they are not using deep packet inspection but just guessing based on your MTU. an ISP could do the same but may also use DPI. The SSL tunnel would at least prevent a DPI scan from explicitly seeing openvpn traffic.

regarding latencies. I've tried a server with a latency of 15ms and it's blocked. I think they've got a complicated system working

There is plenty on this topic in this forum already.

I assume you say torrents are bad because to test you have to make sure it's a well seeded torrent? Downloading an ubuntu iso is a great test of max speed I think.

Have you tried SSL and SSH tunnels? How does 12MB/s compare to your ISP speed?

why not use Eddie?

Your ISP should have nothing to do with the problems you had if you were using the VPN properly. Remember, your connection is encrypted to the VPN server. Your ISP can't manipulate what's within that tunnel.

Yes, you can run stunnel so that you can do openvpn within SSL tunnel. I would imagine SSH is also available but I've not tried it. There was a post in pfsense forums regarding installing stunnel from the freebsd repo.

in your openvpn client setup just put in the resolved IP of the server you want to use. that way no DNS resolution is needed to connect and you can choose the server you want.

the .deb installer package works very well for me in Mint 17 and 18 virtualbox guest.

The fact that he used his home ISP in Poland to login to Apple, Facebook, and the site administration page. This can triangular to a perfect match, since you have a common point of interest where one is a human evidence (Facebook profile) and second is electronic (Unique IP address). Then it is usually easy to send requests to all other U.S. based services with a request for more info. After that you load all the data of points of interests to a device like Palantir: https://www.palantir.com/wp-assets/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Palantir-Solution-Overview-Cyber-long.pdf We need to wait for the final indictment to know more details, just like with the SR case. Right now it's only small drafts. This is usually released after the first prosecution takes place. It only makes sense to me if they hacked KAT and got cooperation from apple and facebook on the timing of the connections to their services by that IP. If apple and facebook don't cooperate I don't see how they'd make the connection. Anyway, shame on apple and facebook for cooperating.

I'm not seeing it. So what if authorities see the same IP connect to KAT, facebook, and apple. Assuming it's all encrypted (https), how would they know what accounts are being accessed on those sites? What am I missing?

there is a setting to change scoring the scoring rule - either speed or latency. speed rule is default and it will show Canada as the best for USA users. latency rule will show you what you want.

I don't have a KAT account but it does bother me that my birth nation polices the world so eagerly and thoroughly. I don't believe they have the right but what do I know.

no, the solution to this problem isn't for users to mark solutions. when there is a large problem like what happened Staff do need to make an announcement. many people probably consider that disabling checking DNS and route is decreasing their security. whether that's true or not, some guidance by Staff is much more assuring and authoritative than other users.

it's about some security software freaking out when all those UDP connections are made by torrenting. at least that's what I remember from some previous problems that, if I recall correctly, were the same as this sounds.

I've already said that I think it's your security software. Have you tested with all your Kaspersky (or any other 3rd party stuff) disabled?

That's because we don't externalize the support service. Do you prefer a copied & pasted, pre-packaged answer after a few minutes, with a plus of a meaningless chat with some remote call center which handles hundreds of different services from dishes to computers, or a competent answer, written by the service personnel, which needs the time that it really needs? If you prefer the first type of aforementioned support then Air is not the service for you. That said, today is a special day because a certificate deployment failure on several VPN servers caused major problems (now solved) for hours, with a subsequent and dramatic surge of support requests. Anyway, all the support requests will be satisfied within a few hours, as it always happens. Only a few hours delay due to the tickets congestion. Kind regards I was able to connect to a USA server during the problem time with my pfsense box. Was the problem only effecting the Eddie client? Yes, I've since seen the post from Staff saying this effected only checking route and DNS, which only Eddie does. Plus it apparently only effected some servers. Maybe I got lucky and hit a good one.
