Hello! That's irrelevant. The packets from the Internet reach a port of the VPN server exit-IP address and are forwarded to a port of your node VPN IP address (in your case the VPN IP address of the tun network interface of the machine running your camera software). Forwarded packets are therefoe inside the VPN tunnel until they reach the port of your system tun interface, i.e. the network interface used by OpenVPN. That's all. Kind regards

Hello! Check here: . 2019.04.06 16:57:42 - OpenVPN > UDP link remote: [AF_INET]213.152.162.101:443 . 2019.04.06 16:57:42 - OpenVPN > MANAGEMENT: Client connected from [AF_INET]127.0.0.1:3100 . 2019.04.06 16:58:13 - OpenVPN > [UNDEF] Inactivity timeout (--ping-exit), exiting It seems that UDP or OpenVPN packets are blocked: you might like to check for antivirus/HIPS/firewall on your system and QoS/packet filtering tools on your router. If you suspect that it's your ISP the one to enforce blocks against UDP or OpenVPN, please try a connection to port 443 of entry-IP address 3 (THREE) with TCP. You can change connection mode in Eddie's window "Preferences" > "Protocols" (untick "Automatic" to unlock your choices). Kind regards

Hello! When you re-install you should be prompted for a NEW master password. If not, the older files in /data/data/org.airvpn.eddie were not deleted, which usually means that the app was not really uninstalled. To uninstall an application, please make sure to follow the correct steps from the Android settings. Just to stay on the safe side, make sure to tap the Clear Data option for Eddie before you uninstall (however, that should be superfluous). You can usually find the aforementioned button in the Storage section. After that, uninstall Eddie (in a stock Android, in general: Apps -> See all apps -> scroll down to Eddie -> select Eddie -> select Uninstall). Please feel free to keep us posted. Kind regards

Hello! We're very glad to know that the problem has been resolved! Your suggestion is good and we will consider it seriously. With Microsoft, Eddie already implements various fixes (on the tun/tap interface, on global DNS missing implementation on all Windows systems, and even on the "new" crazy DNS handling in Windows 10 after the "Creator" update), although mis-behaving for a bug of someone else is theoretically not the right way to follow and keeping up with all the Microsoft bugs is not so easy. Kind regards

Hello! Please follow our tweets on the matter. https://twitter.com/airvpn Kind regards

Thank you again for your choice! Kind regards

Hello! Lot of different problems mixed in this thread. At least a part of them, like the ones in above quote, should be definitely on your side, so the best way to proceed is opening a ticket. Kind regards

Hello! You opened two tickets a few minutes ago. It looks like a matter for the sales department because at least one payment has been reversed by PayPal. Please be patient, you will receive an answer after an investigation. Sales department is active on office times (GMT), it's not like the tech dep. Kind regards

Hello! If you have never enabled Network Lock you can rule out firewall problems. We suspect you suffer for a DNS issue. That's unexpected (Eddie must restore DNS settings when you shut it down properly) but we deem it possible since it has been sporadically reported before. Uninstalling Eddie will make no difference. Anyway, if that's the case, solution will take just 30 seconds of your time. Set publicly reachable DNS in your system while Eddie is NOT running, that's all. We recommend OpenNIC https://www.opennic.org but of course you can set any favorite DNS. How to change DNS in Mac: https://www.macobserver.com/tips/how-to/change-mac-dns-entries/ Kind regards

Hello! Please check your iptables rules. Network Lock blocks TCP and UDP, and may or may not (according to Eddie settings) block ICMP. So, if Network Lock remained "on" even after you shut Eddie down, you might find ICMP unblocked, while TCP and UDP remain blocked. From a root terminal, while Eddie is NOT running: iptables -F should resolve the issue. Feel free to keep us posted. Kind regards

Hello! It sounds related to a notorious Office 365 bug which Microsoft refuses to patch so far. Please see here: https://www.macwheeler.com/windows-10-office-365-cannot-connect-over-openvpn-fixed/ Verify whether that's really the source of the problem or not. Kind regards

Hello! That is not possible: packets will be accepted and forwarded to your final node IP address from all the servers your account is connected to. It's not a big deal anyway (see below). Why? Just make sure that the port does not exist in the proper machines, that's all. Kind regards

Hello! It's nice but it might have a significant impact on the battery. We need a careful evaluation. Eddie makes your battery live so much longer than "OpenVPN for Android" thanks to a maniacal care for each method draining battery. Kind regards

Hello! Thank you for the crash report. To download Eddie latest beta version for Mac: go to https://airvpn.org/macosxclick "Other versions"click "Experimental"you will be brought back to the download page pointing to the latest beta versiondownload and install as usualFeel free to report whether it solves the issue or not. Kind regards

Hello! If Windscribe and Torguard work, then the block might be not against the protocols, but against our own IP addresses, we're sorry. Kind regards

Hello! This is exactly what Eddie does. Your problem is treated in another thread and is not reproducible so far. Moreover your problem is unrelated to this thread. Please do not pollute threads and help us keep them clear and in good order. A split is mandatory. EDIT: thread has been split for consistency. Kind regards

Hello! Simply because when you are the one to decide when to unlock, you can first terminate those app which must not have their traffic outside the VPN according to your threat model. Yes, we are talking about the same. There's nothing to report, the option works as expected. It's you that you're asking it for what it can't (and did not promise to) do, i.e. block the traffic unconditionally, if we understand correctly what you want. The "Block connection ..." new sub-option under "Always on" blocks traffic of the unregistered (to the VpnService API) applications while the tunnel is non-existing. All the traffic of the registered to the service applications is not blocked as well as the traffic (outside any tunnel) during all the time necessary to rebuild a tunnel and connect. Eddie leaves you the freedom of choice according to your threat model. If the "Alway on" + "Block connections..." are not a hazard for your threat model, then you can disable VPN lock in Eddie. On the contrary, if you can't allow the risk of traffic flowing outside any tunnel in aforementioned cases, then enable Eddie "VPN lock". Finally, always remember that, even while the tunnel is up, in an Android device leaks are ALWAYS possible by applications running with high privileges (typically Google and system manufacturer software), trivially by binding to the physical network interface . Such leaks could be theoretically prevented only with the correct packet filtering table rules, which you can't modify if you're not root (that's why Eddie leaks prevention is a "best effort"). The same happens in iOS where Apple. by policy, reminds you that Apple applications will bypass whenever they want any VPN and exchange data outside the VPN tunnel without warning you. Kind regards

Hello! The VPN lock is the only safe way to prevent traffic leaks in specific circumstances. The feature can anyway be disabled in the Settings, if your threat model can tolerate traffic leaks. In this way Eddie will behave similarly to all the other OpenVPN based apps, trying to re-connect as soon as possible in any case with potential, unavoidable leaks. Eddie will anyway re-connect to the server whenever doing so will not expose the device to traffic leaks (i.e. the tunnel was not destroyed), even when the VPN lock feature is on. EDIT: please note that the Android Oreo (and higher versions) options you mention are not aimed to prevent leaks in various circumstances. Kind regards

Hello! Good to hear that no vulnerability has surfaced and no exploit is available. Kind regards

Before this thread becomes even more grotesque than it is now, we would like just to remind you that no vulnerability has been found so far on this subject, so we invite the OP to publicly declare that he/she found no vulnerability and no exploit, or report them to us. Kind regards

Hello! Currently the only way is NOT using VPN DNS. In this case you will be excluded from every and each "micro/geo routing" while in the VPN. Kind regards

Hello! Please feel free to send us at your earliest convenience the crash report and consider to test Eddie 2.17.2 beta as well. Kind regards

Hi, Been testing for a bit and updating to Eddie 2.1 has completely solved this issue, thank you very much. Will this new version be in beta for a while just out of interest? Hello! Eddie 2.1 has been released. It's the latest stable version. Next version will be Eddie 2.1.1 or 2.2 with minor updates for additional comfort, stay tuned. Side load is still necessary because Amazon has not yet approved the new version, so in the Appstore you still find 2.0.1 version. Google Play Store users don't need side load because Eddie is live in the Play Store. Kind regards

Hello! The post is anyway useful, thank you! No reasons to delete, really, but the final choice is yours. More technical details (including nohup, disown and how to handle properly stdin/stdout/stderr in such cases): https://superuser.com/questions/178587/how-do-i-detach-a-process-from-terminal-entirely We would like to add that, in order to detach completely a job from the original shell job list with a complete control and fine tuning, you can simply use GNU Screen, a terminal and terminal emulators multiplexer with a tiny RAM footprint: https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-use-linux-screen/ Kind regards
