Hello! The old internal speed test (Speed Test Mini) has several issues: it is a closed source 3rd party application, it requires Flash and its reliability when used with high bandwidth line is extremely poor. A new speed test has been implemented in order to overcome the aforementioned limitations. It has been entirely developed by us, it provides customizations to make tests more reliable, it does not require Flash and importantly it performs tests outside and inside the tunnel. The idea behind this last feature is to measure the performance difference inside the tunnel, in order to have hints on bottlenecks (if any) which may be caused by your ISP (through traffic shaping, for example) or by various factors, such as packet inspection tools, Internet "security suites" and CPU power. Be aware that it's still in an experimental stage, so your feedback will be very welcome. The URL is: https://airvpn.org/speedtest_ex In order to use it, you need to log in the web site with the same account and the same device that is connected to one of our VPN servers. The menus are quite self-explicative, anyway do not hesitate to contact us for any clarification and feel free to send us your feedback or any remark about any issue. Kind regards

Hello, sorry, there is a delay due to unforeseen problems. The micro-routing Ubertechie has detected a bug in the micro-routing system and has been fixing it. Additionally, we have an annoying delay (for unknown reasons at the moment) on the delivery of another server in France which would have helped us in the testings AND that in our plans will be employed in the near future as a full VPN server (if it will pass all the tests). Hopefully you should see news soon. Kind regards

Hello! The Air client (airvpn.exe) is portable, it does not need installation. Just paste it in a comfortable place, for example the Desktop. If you can't find it anymore, try to search for airvpn.exe on your whole HDD, or just re-download the archive, decompress it, copy & paste the client where you wish. Kind regards

Hello, we don't see any point in our Terms of Service which would forbid that. If there's some problem, you will soon (2-3 days) receive an opinion from our legal advisors, please hold on. Kind regards

Hello, of course we are not interested in kidding potential customers who want to pay! We don't detect any problem with the payment interfaces, can you please describe the issue with more details? Kind regards

Hello, we have just checked Leporis AND your account, everything is fine. Packets are forwarded to your VPN IP. Then, of course, you receive them encapsulated and encrypted from the VPN server Entry-IP address to your public IP address. When they are on the tun interface, they are already decrypted by OpenVPN and have the "real" header and payload. At this moment, we have tested that TCP packets are sent correctly to your system, and are actively rejected (we see Connection refused (111), not Connection timed out (110)), so perhaps it might be a firewall problem. Also, what is the service listening to your remotely forwarded ports? Kind regards

Hello, now Netflix is included in the anti-IP-based-geo-location-blocking system. Special thanks to an Air user who allowed us to test Netflix. https://airvpn.org/topic/9223-netflix/ ABC and ITV have been added as well. Special note about ITV: it might require HTML5 geo-location as mandatory https://airvpn.org/topic/9338-itv/ - we'll be investigating. Kind regards

Hello, that's probably a setting in your browser, or you're not using our DNS. Our DNS servers are neutral, do not ever inject or alter the requests (other services resolve to search results, try to fix typo etc). Kind regards

Hello! The TUN/TAP adapter does not come up. Can you please try a Winsock and TCP/IP stack reset, and finally a system reboot, according to the instructions here: https://airvpn.org/topic/8320-solved-connects-but-ip-doesnt-change-on-windows-server-essentials-2012/?do=findComment&comment=8321 EDIT NOTE FROM SUPPORT: RagingElephant managed to detect and solve the problem, it was caused by PeerBlock Kind regards

Hello, you can generate split files by clicking on "Advanced Mode" and ticking "Separate certs/key from .ovpn files". By default the generator creates .ovpn files embedded with certificates and key. Kind regards

Hello! Have you edited your hosts file according to the very same message you linked? You'll need airvpn.org resolution if you use the Air client. Kind regards

Hello, under a pure performance point of view, our DNS records are updated in almost-real-time to reflect the best server for each area. The best server is determined according to a formula which keeps into considerations the following parameters: latency from nodes in the same region, available bandwidth, status parameters (such as packet loss). Once the system has performed measurements and calculations, it determines the best server and updates DNS accordingy. For example, america.vpn.airdns.org will resolve to the IP address of the best server in America continent. You can see the best server and many more information (useful also in case you wish to perform a manual pick) in our servers monitor: https://airvpn.org/status where latency is calculated directly from your computer, bandwidth and stats are updated every 60 seconds. Additionally, have a look at the Ping Matrix (updated every 300 seconds): https://airvpn.org/pingmatrix Kind regards

Hello!, Please try to follow the instructions provided by Tunnelblick itself (restart, if it fails again re-install). Kind regards

Hello, of course, a malware which is installed on your computer running with high privileges makes any encryption irrelevant. VPN and TOR protect your line, not your computer, they should never be considered an anti-virus or anti-malware tool. Kind regards

Hello! Have you generated separate files? You should have, in addition to .ovpn configuration files, ca.crt (server certificate), user.crt (client certificate) and user.key (client key). The authentication is not based on login/password. Kind regards

Hello! We're very glad to inform you that a new 1 Gbit/s server located in the UK is available: Naos. The AirVPN client will show automatically the new server, while if you use the OpenVPN client you can generate all the files to access it through our configuration/certificates/key generator (menu "Client Area"->"Config generator"). The server accepts connections on ports 53, 80, 443, 2018 UDP and TCP. Just like every other Air server, Naos supports OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH. As usual no traffic limits, no logs, no discrimination on protocols and hardened security against various attacks with separate entry and exit-IP addresses. Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or issue. Kind regards and datalove AirVPN Team

Hello, sorry, no plans at all at the moment. Kind regards

Hello! Ok, the results from ipleak.net show no DNS leak at all. Kind regards

Hello! Ok, please do the following. Re-generate the configuration files with resolved host names: - click "Advanced Mode" - tick "Resolved hosts in .ovpn file" - tick "All servers for area/region" In this way you will have configuration files with IP addresses in "remote" lines instead of host names, solving the problem at its roots. Kind regards

@Royee You need to have "Resolved hosts" in the Configuration Generator, anyway never mind, just feel free to ask us for entry-IP addresses (but not on the forum). Kind regards

Hello, yes that's fine, however you should get just 1 DNS in ipleak.net, can you send us a screenshot? EDIT: just a clarification, is OpenVPN running on the router or on your Windows system? Kind regards

Hello! You need the entry-IP addresses (each server has one entry and one exit-IP address). Do no hesitate to ask for them on a ticket to us (they are not published in the forum). Kind regards

Hello, correct, on OpenVPN over SSH your client is pushed an IP address in 10.50.0.0/16, i.e. range starting from 10.50.0.2 and ending to 10.50.255.254 Kind regards AirVPN Support Team

Hello, your account is currently connected successfully to some VPN server, can you please check? Kind regards

Hello, some DNS are unable for short periods of time to resolve *.vpn.airdns.org. We're investigating the issue, checking whether there are problems with the authoritative DNS. Kind regards
