@Pulse2492 Hello! Since an AirVPN port reserved to an account does not change and since all AirVPN servers support remote inbound port forwarding, GlueTun does not need a specific AirVPN auto port forwarding setup, which is required only for clunky implementations where the port changes at each re-connection and/or port forwarding works only on some servers. You just need to configure (on both the listening program and the compose file) the port that you previously managed and reserved through your AirVPN account port panel. For more details please check GlueTun documentation. Kind regards

Hello! If you can falsify a mathematical proof please do, otherwise please remain silent as you can't dismiss math with an act of faith. Also, a theorem does not become false when it is a few years old. We're not worried about our ability to accept BTC payments, so why should you? Thank you for the suggestions and the insights, they will be carefully considered. Kind regards

Hello! This argument is an issue, for many people THE issue, which must be considered. For a quick introduction to this problem related to LN you can check Investopedia . For a mathematical approach debating even the scaling effectiveness and proving that a decentralized LN is unworkable you can start on medium.com for example. Good to know and, as we wrote, another serious issue to consider. So be it. If BTC fails as a payment tool if a higher layer of centralization is not implemented then that will be fine. Anyway we were not writing that we completely rule out LN, we wrote that there are serious issues to be considered which make us very cautious. Kind regards

Hello! This is totally unnecessary. If your transaction doesn't have any confirmation within one hour, it will be accepted whenever it is confirmed and the system will activate automatically your account plan. If something goes wrong contact the support team, no need to "cancel" the transaction, whatever you mean. The concerns about LN have not been resolved in the last 3 years and therefore we are very cautious about it. The significant enlargement of the attack surface, the centralization problem (hub and spoke model), the closed-channel fraud issues, the betrayal of the custodial system, and a few other problems must all be considered carefully. Kind regards

Hello! There is no way for Eddie to recognize one specific network and modify the behavior accordingly at the moment. It is a feature we can consider with the due caveat (you need to renounce to system's leaks prevention). Kind regards

Hi! Please see here: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/56430-road-to-openvpn-26-and-dco/?do=findComment&comment=226017 On https://github.com/OpenVPN/ovpn-dco: As we wrote, we are not inclined to deploy something under heavy development that can change radically. Furthermore DCO development has been very slow in the last three years and the interest around OpenVPN DCO is fading away with at least one major VPN provider dropping OpenVPN completely in 2026 (not DCO, OpenVPN in its entirety). We'll see whether the DCO can reach a stable release and if/when the developers release something stable we will re-evaluate the matter for sure. Please check before writing the "road to OpenVPN 2.6" here: https://airvpn.org/road_to_openvpn26/ where you can read that the beta testing phase will be ongoing "Until openvpn-dco stable version is released". After a stable version is released we would start the migration phase. Kind regards

Hello! It is described in the manual, step by step. Please make sure to check the manual here: https://airvpn.org/android/eddie/#step6 and here: https://airvpn.org/android/eddie/#step7 Please note that if the "Always on VPN" feature has been removed by the manufacturer, no VPN app can start and connect during the device bootstrap. This is relevant for example in Huawei and some other phones by Chinese companies, where this options was removed to forbid automatic VPN connections at the startup. This feature has also been removed from Android TV 10 and higher versions, with the same purpose. Kind regards

Hello! Which exact Firestick model do you have (exact CPU)? Please make sure you run Eddie 3.2.1 which is linked against the latest WireGuard library and that you test connections over WireGuard, not only OpenVPN. You will not find it on the Amazon store (updates to our app were prohibited/rejected by Amazon because we refuse to offer Amazon Pay in-app purchases) so you will need to side load it, if you haven't already done so: https://airvpn.org/android/eddie/apk/tv/ Kind regards

Hello! Can you please test Eddie 2.24.4 beta version and check whether or not the problem gets resolved? Please see here: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/57401-eddie-desktop-224-beta-released/ Kind regards

Hello! Can you please test the just released 2.24.4 beta and check whether or not the problem disappears? This specific problem has been addressed: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/57401-eddie-desktop-224-beta-released/?do=findComment&comment=241781 Kind regards

Version 2.24.4 (Thu, 14 Nov 2024 11:40:14 +0000) [bugfix] [windows] Fixed an issue with portable edition 2.24.3 [change] [all] Minor improvements [change] [linux] Fixed an issue with network lock with iptables-legacy (also Arch distro) [change] [all] Migration from DotNet7 to DotNet8

Hello! We tend to assume that it is indeed a coincidence, but of course we can't be 100% sure. It must also be said that the attacks started after a few days the new servers were already operational and the old ones decommissioned. Kind regards

Hello! We're very glad to inform you that a new 1 Gbit/s full duplex server located in Madrid (Spain) is available: Jishui. 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 OpenVPN connections on ports 53, 80, 443, 1194, 2018 UDP and TCP, and WireGuard connections on ports 1637, 47107 and 51820. Just like every other Air server, Jishui supports OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH, TLS 1.3, 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 server status as usual in our real time servers monitor: https://airvpn.org/servers/Jishui Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or issue. Kind regards and datalove AirVPN Team

Hello! We are honored to see that you expect from us superhuman powers but unfortunately after a reality check we must tell you that not only we don't know the attackers personally, but we are not even able to read minds. Also remember that future mitigation procedures, if any, should not be disclosed, in order not to make the attacker task easier. No, there were no attacks. Currently the main objectives are NYC, LA and Raleigh. Kind regards

Hello! We do not prevent any access to Zoho or any mail service. The only block we enforce as a unique exception to our Net Neutrality commitment is a block against outbound port 25. Please make sure you do not rely on port 25 for SMTP (plain SMTP must not be used anyway) and connect to the standard Zoho mail server ports (465 or 587 for SMPT over SSL/TLS). If you are already connecting to port 465 or 587 please contact Zoho customer service and verify if (and if so why) they block AirVPN servers. Feel free to keep us informed. Kind regards

@MrGreen101 Hello! For some reason Eddie picks a pre-existing WireGuard interface for OpenVPN and OpenVPN doesn't like it. Maybe it's some interface driven by some customized driver of a third party. Try this to resolve: https://airvpn.org/forums/topic/56643-stuck-in-a-broken-route-never-connects/?do=findComment&comment=225323 Kind regards

Hello! Yes, that's probably why it is no more available. It was a FAQ and then removed as outdated. @Abstain9194 please ignore the out of date recommendation. Kind regards

Hello! WireGuard will never consider a connection over and will not try a re-connection when the tunnel is dead. If you want more network management with re-connection attempts after a timeout you can consider AirVPN software for Android, Linux, Mac and Windows. Kind regards

@Abstain9194 Hello! We see the issue on that topic which is no more accessible by normal users, we must check with the web site maintainers, maybe there's a logic reason for this choice or maybe it's an error. In the meantime, if you run specific browsers on Mac and Windows here's the message posted by @OpenSourcerer as a solution at the time (August 2019, and limited to the mentioned browsers): Kind regards

Hello! A relevant part of the infrastructure in the USA has been under attack since 24-48 hours ago. The redundancy is currently guaranteeing the usual high quality of service: 200'000 Mbit/s are available and distributed throughout the whole USA territory. Please take note that in the last 8 months the Tzulo infrastructure, provisioning connectivity now even to NYC servers, has been consistently providing the top speed in the world to AirVPN clients often beating the old "all time high" of 1 Gbit/s on the client side (2 Gbit/s on the server) with WireGuard. Kind regards

Hello! A relevant part of the infrastructure in the USA has been under attack in the last 48 hours. The redundancy is currently guaranteeing the usual high quality of service: 200'000 Mbit/s are available and distributed throughout the whole USA territory. The uptime of the new 10 Gbit/s servers in Arizona and California is 100% so check your facts. Everything can be improved and we will work to improve, 14 years of experience are not chicken feed. In the meantime please take note that in the last 8 months the Tzulo infrastructure, provisioning connectivity to Polis and NYC servers you mention with disgraceful disdain and superficiality, as well as other servers in strategic areas of the USA, has been consistently providing the top speed in the world to AirVPN clients often beating the old "all time high" of 1 Gbit/s on the client side (2 Gbit/s on the server) with WireGuard. (EDIT: the current ATH is 1.5 Gbit/s client side). Kind regards

Hello! That's correct. To make any future oversight (i.e. you run qB without running Eddie or other VPN software) harmless please follow the suggestion by OpenSourcerer in the previous message. Kind regards
