Hello! https://airvpn.org/topic/11458-sky-italia-it has been put in micro-routing. It should cover sky.it, sky-homepack.it, tiamomyskyhd.com, skygo.it and others. We can't test at this very moment because they require a subscription, feel free to try your SkyGo and report back. Kind regards It seems to work, altough i'm not sure that the quality of the streaming is the same as before, can you explain if this "micro-routing" affects perfoncences in bandwidth? My subscription is about to end and i'd like to prolong it, just... what if this micro-routing service doesn't satisfy me? would i always get a refound on the "italian server issue" basis? Hello! Yes, we assure a full refund on this basis of the remaining subscription period, in addition to (of course) the general right to refunds according to the Terms of Service. Micro-routing CAN potentially affect performance because it adds a hop, but in general it should be faster (if you're not in Italy) than connecting to an Italian server, because the peering between different datacenters and the absence of bandwidth management policies in the datacenters is often better than your ISP italian datacenter peering. This is just a statistical consideration, though, and it's of course likely to be not valid if you are in Italy. As a side note, we have noticed that some Italy TV streaming services appear to be slower on Saturday and Sunday (from Italy, without VPN, tested just from two ISPs). Difficult to determine an exact cause, maybe (just maybe) this is due to Italian general network infrastructure congestion during peak times (infrastructure in Italy has major problems if compared to infrastructure in many other EU countries). EDIT: for streaming contents, make sure that you connect in UDP mode, so that all the other protocols will be wrapped in UDP. TCP is not good for that due to some technical reasons. Kind regards

Hello! For clarity, we recommend that you tick "Advanced Mode" in Configuration Generator and then you tick "Separate certs/keys from .ovpn file". user.crt is the client certificate ca.crt is the CA certificate ta.key is the TLS Auth key user.key is the client key Moreover: change "NAT" to "Enabled" (VERY important) and "Bridge TAP" to "Disabled". Check your iptables rules and make sure that the tun interface name is correct (verify it with command "ifconfig"). On some builds it's tun0, on other ones tun1 by default. Kind regards

Hello, please try again now. Kind regards

Hello! "LZO Compression" must be set to "Yes" "Static key" must be empty. "TLS Auth" key is missing (paste there ta.key) After the above modifications, change "TLS Cipher": try with "None" and if it fails try with "TLS-DHE-RSA-WITH-AES-128-CBC-SHA" (both are wrong but for some reason most DD-WRT builds will work with one of the two settings). Kind regards

Hello! Actually, we did not find a solution to run AirVPN (in general any OpenVPN connection) with ChromeOS. EDIT: IMPORTANT UPDATE https://airvpn.org/topic/9785-using-service-via-chromebook/?do=findComment&comment=20105 As far as we understand, the UI doesn't allow tls-auth, so it's impossible to configure OpenVPN through the UI. It also requires certificates conversion and a manual conversion of the .ovpn file in another custom format (!). Another attempt could be tried from a terminal: - Generate AirVPN config with Config Generator. - Open crosh with Ctrl+Alt+T. - Type 'shell'. From here, you can access the preinstalled openvpn: (password is 'facepunch' in Hexxen ChromeOS build that we run under VirtualBox) - cd /home/user//Downloads - sudo openvpn AirVPN_Europe_UDP-443.ovpn - but it fails because of an issue about the TUN driver: We have not yet found a solution. There are dozens of issues reports about ChromeOS and OpenVPN out there. We wrote this topic as an experience, in case someone wants to investigate and share a solution. Kind regards

Hello! We have planned to work on mediaset. Please feel free to warn us about other services (such as the cited cielotv) you would like to have accessible from out of Italy servers. Kind regards Hello! We're glad to inform you that http://www.video.mediaset.it has been put under micro-routing, it has been tested and it works. The micro-routing should cover also Mediaset Premium, Premium Play, Infinity and related sites (for example "Grande Fratello"). Kind regards

Hello! https://airvpn.org/topic/11458-sky-italia-it has been put in micro-routing. It should cover sky.it, sky-homepack.it, tiamomyskyhd.com, skygo.it and others. We can't test at this very moment because they require a subscription, feel free to try your SkyGo and report back. Kind regards

Website: http://www.mediaset.it/, www.infinitytv.it and many other. Mediaset, an Italian TV Broadcasting Status: OK Routing: All servers to IT route.

Hello! We're glad to inform you that Cielo TV support has been added: https://airvpn.org/topic/11453-cielo-it Other websites are still under investigation: Mediaset, Infinity, some RAI channels. Kind regards

Hello! We're glad to inform you that micro-routing has been implemented: https://airvpn.org/topic/11455-omegle Kind regards

Hello! We confirm that none of our current routing servers works with http://www.smh.com.au http://media.smh.com.au/ seems available without needing any routing. As reported by ZPKZ, from Dorsum (as an example) http://media.smh.com.au works, but http://www.smh.com.au does not. Nothing can be done yet, without a routing server in Australia. Kind regards

Hello! It works from Dorsum. https://airvpn.org/routes/?q=www.modelmayhem.com It doesn't seem a problem of geolocation restrictions, simply try another server. Kind regards

Hello! We have many projects for this month (April) in no-profit forum. Great! Which one shall we fund? As explained in Guidelines: We are thinking about a poll. But we can't guarantee that people won't create many accounts only to submit a vote. Available options: Any member can vote. Only premium members, with at least one month subscription, can vote (to avoid votes from Trial accounts) Only members of a special group can vote. Initially, those who have suggested a project would be included in that group: PirateParty, gigan3d, urbanconcrete, pfSense_fan, dwright. The same group would decide the next members, typically those who propose an on-topic project. ? Other ideas? We're looking forward to hearing from you all. Kind regards

Hello! Keeping a high level of privacy on the Internet is much more important than accessing Hulu services. In this way Hulu tends to compel USA citizens to access the service without the necessary protection provided by a VPN or similar service. Voluntarily or not, copyright reasons or not, this is equivalent to yet another attempt to lower the privacy levels in the USA. Spreading VPN usage is a threat to USA surveillance. Finding ways to discourage people to use VPN services helps privacy intruders. About copyright, this is pure nonsense. It is just an impulse to file sharing and other methods which are able to provide with much higher video and audio quality, without ads and without the various technical problems of streaming solutions (which in several cases prevent a proper, fluid and happy content fruition) more than what Hulu provides. Kind regards

Hello! Yes, you're right. It looks fine then, are all the interface names correct? Kind regards

Hello! The script is working correctly: all the traffic is tunneled. If you want to split traffic with this script, then you forgot to de-comment one of the key lines See here: # # Define the routing policies for the traffic. The rules will be applied in the order that they # are listed. In the end, packets with MARK set to "0" will pass through the VPN. If MARK is set # to "1" it will bypass the VPN. # # EXAMPLES: # # All LAN traffic will bypass the VPN (Useful to put this rule first, so all traffic bypasses the VPN and you can configure exceptions afterwards) # iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i br0 -j MARK --set-mark 1 # Ports 80 and 443 will bypass the VPN # iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i br0 -p tcp -m multiport --dport 80,443 -j MARK --set-mark 1 # All traffic from a particular computer on the LAN will use the VPN # iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i br0 -m iprange --src-range 192.168.1.2 -j MARK --set-mark 0 # All traffic to a specific Internet IP address will use the VPN # iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i br0 -m iprange --dst-range 216.146.38.70 -j MARK --set-mark 0 # All UDP and ICMP traffic will bypass the VPN # iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i br0 -p udp -j MARK --set-mark 1 # iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -i br0 -p icmp -j MARK --set-mark 1 Kind regards

Hello! Implemented. https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=airvpn.org Kind regards

Hello! Thanks for this warning, we will investigate. Kind regards

Hello! Yes you're right, HSTS is not enabled, we have put it in the things to do very soon. Kind regards

Hello! We can't do much on our side: it's Omegle that bans VPNs (not only AirVPN according to anonymous reports), not the other way round. We don't block any web site, of course. So the question should be asked to Omegle administrators in the first place. Kind regards I known its not AirVPN fault, however you can multi-hop or do whatever you do to unblock a site. This is the whole purpose of reporting blocked sites, isn´t it? Thanks Hello, yes, correct! Kind regards

Hello! We're sorry to inform you that we have just detected a hardware failure on Orionis. Instead of waiting for hardware inspection and replacement, we will probably add a new 1 Gbit/s server (Orionis is 100 Mbit/s) in the near future and dismiss the broken server. NL infrastructure is anyway largely redundant. Kind regards AirVPN Staff
