yes!!!! and this is a surprise. I didn't see it coming in the checking routes page.

so I'm looking at switching to duckduckgo since startpage no longer has the best results. however, I regularly use startpage's options to search based on time - last year, last week, last 24 hours, etc. is there a way to do that with duckduckgo?

they do it so that they can control how users use their network. it's not malicious. the reason is liability.

Only other people that are in India could tell you about international speeds via VPN tunnel to nearby nations. I wouldn't have my hopes high but it wouldn't be the fault of AirVPN. Quite often international gateways are just overloaded and/or throttled. If banking web sites block VPNs then you may have a problem. Again, this wouldn't be the fault of AirVPN. Every VPN that I know of uses a shared IP for all the users on a given server.

I think this is a matter of ISP throttling. But, testing to nearer servers is in order first.

What alternative to whatsapp are you using? why whatsapp? it seems to be encrypted such that governments want to ban it.

AirVPN can only control their servers and to some extent the datacenter. There is a whole lot of internet between you and the server which could be blamed instead of griping at Air. If the Swedish servers have poor latency then use other servers to which your ISP has better connectivity.

perhaps they've blocked IP address ranges that include some AirVPN servers.

either open up a support ticket or be more detailed here. paste eddie logs (in spoiler tags) and describe the situation that causes trouble. Public wifi??

some sites block VPNs. Post the site in the "blocked websites warning" subforum.

does it try checking authorization several times? I've seen in certain circumstances eddie trying several times for authorization and then moving on to connect.

I'm wondering why it's so difficult to find good servers in the U.S. Is it AirVPN's policy of desiring all kinds of connections? I just want to hide my computer details and location. I'm not interested in downloading pirated movies, music, etc. Another issue that has been getting on my nerves is getting a restart when I attempt to connect to a server in the U.S. I've submitted a support request regarding this issue. At this point, I too am considering looking at another provider. The USA is a larger nation than most so it's relatively difficult for AirVPN to provide quality service. For example, all the Netherlands servers are in one city. That wouldn't be prudent in the USA. I think that Air has done an excellent job in finding so many different datacenters that fit their criteria (net neutrality, bandwidth, location) in the USA.

Mmm bad choice.Let use asus as AP only and let pfSense do routing/firewalling and VPN....pfSense does them a lot better than any other consumer box. I use my Netgear R7000 as AP only. Another advise, avoid Realtek NIC.....pfSense should work fine but better Intel NIC. but pfSense is also half a fortune where netgear you can get for free with most ISPs here. half a fortune?? I built a pfsense box for $127 USD. That's cheaper than a good consumer router. cheapest AMD APU the store had but still has AES-NI, motherboard that was free after rebate, refurb HDD, cheap 2GB stick of RAM, cheap case, and an extra NIC that I already owned. So, maybe you can't find the same type of stores where you are but it still shouldn't be half a fortune. If you read my later posts as well, I pointed out how even if I were to build myself the import prices would be insane, but if you like I'd be happy to hear the exact specs you used and I'll find the cheapest of them I can, but stores here don't sell seperate hardware it's always import already posted in the setup thread. https://airvpn.org/topic/17444-how-to-set-up-pfsense-23-for-airvpn/?p=40268

make sure you're not using UPnP nor NAT-PMP in your torrent client.

http://status.quadranet.com/ that explains some of the recent trouble but doesn't (yet) explain why they were down most recently.

As I write this Quadranet, which hosts 3 servers in Miami and 3 servers in Atlanta, is having more trouble. Their status page isn't updated with the latest so no idea what the problem is. But, interestingly, Cursa, one of the Miami servers, is still accessible. The other 5 servers are not. MTR shows the route to the 5 unreachable servers is going to Los Angeles. Perhaps Quadranet has automatically fallen over to their LAX datacenter. But, of course, these are dedicated servers, not "cloud". Anyway, what's different about Cursa that it's still accessible??

Don't look at it. It's just rebranded cheap Chinese box. You can buy much cheaper: https://world.taobao.com/item/37480079350.htm?fromSite=main However DON'T buy this for OpenVPN anyhow. Celeron 1037U doesn't have AES-NI acceleration (AES-NI - natively accelerates encryption and is crucial to VPN performance). You won't get much better results with this than with You router. And opvn.com or whatever they are calling themself is selling bullshit saying that it can encrypt 600mb/s according to OpenSLL bechmark (they even don't tell what encryption algorithm they tested). Right now, my Celeron 3570 pfSense box, with AES-NI can encrypt/decypt 4GBit/s AES-256 (theoretically) in OpenSSL tests, while tops 150MBit/s in OpenVPN. They are selling snake oil. Don't trust them. It's marketing. I doubt if it's even capable of pushing 600Mbit/s through their cheap network interfaces straight from WAN to LAN, without OpenVPN and unencrypted. See, for example pfSense benchmarks of their boxes: https://store.pfsense.org/C2758/ This one can push 208Mbit/s UDP AES-256 OpenVPN traffic. This is real world expectation. Anyhow. If You wan something cheap I recommend something like this: https://www.zotac.com/us/product/mini_pcs/zbox-ci323-nano It's know to work well with pfSense: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=103841.45 (however don't except wireless working on pfSense box). For wireless You still need some acess point. But Asus AC3200 will be OK. However somehow expensive access point This is bare bones. Buy ~4GB of RAM, some smallest SSD You can find (32GB would be more than enough for simple use, 64GB would be plenty). Install pfSense Yourself. If You need some assistance drop a message here. We will try to help. regards And don't even look at this shiny box. It's bullshit. note that those throughput numbers by pfsense are WITHOUT AES-NI or quickassist. not sure why they would test without but I suppose it's to show the baseline possibility.

any VPN provider that inspects data should be avoided. not only will they likely modify data when you don't want them to they are also surely logging.

I'm confused. Startpage still searches just fine for me. But, it's not as private anymore?

suggestion for what? it seems you have all the info you need.

usually it's nothing to worry about. are you still getting thousands?

Hi, can you tell my why I should do that? So far it seems to be I'm currently migrating my torrents to QBit from Deluge but it's a real pain The reason being your ISP may be traffic shaping your P2P traffic. It's not uncommon for them to do so. an ISP may traffic shape based on port and protocol of the VPN tunnel but it won't be based on p2p traffic. the VPN prevents them from seeing that. Edit: not sure why this was put in looking like it's a previous quote.

glad it ended up being the torrent client that's the problem.

https://airvpn.org/topic/9270-how-to-forward-ports-in-dd-wrt-tomato-with-iptables/?hl=%2Biptables+%2Btomato that's the topic. you just may have to change TUN1 to TUN11 or whatever TUN device is being used. And of course change the port and IP addresses to suit.
