New here, just got my subscription. Thank you!

Thank you all for the valuable feedback.

Following this thread, we have identified a bug, most likely introduced on October 7th-8th, which causes the WireGuard session counter on some servers to grow incorrectly over time. As a result, the number of connections currently shown in the server monitor is higher than the real one. The actual connections, and the service itself, are not affected.

We are working on a fix and will update this thread as soon as it is in place.

On a side note, this also means that our no-overselling commitment is honoured by an even wider margin than the one computed by @fsy

Kind regards

Hello!

A quick follow-up on the WireGuard session counter issue mentioned above.

The cause has been identified and fixed, and the fix is currently being rolled out across our infrastructure. Servers that have already received the update are back to reporting accurate figures, and the remaining ones will follow shortly, so the connection counts shown in the server monitor and in the related statistics will match reality again in the very near future.

As previously stated, actual connections and the service itself have never been affected, only the displayed counter was.

Kind regards

Hello!

We inform you that all of our VPN servers in Uppsala, Sweden, will cease operations during the night between 30 September and 1 October 2026.

This withdrawal is part of our ongoing hardware renewal and connectivity improvement programme. These servers have already been partially replaced by brand-new servers in Northern Europe featuring more powerful hardware and 10 Gbit/s connectivity. Further deployments will complete their replacement.

If you currently connect to our Uppsala servers, please select alternative servers before the withdrawal. If you use OpenVPN or WireGuard configuration files pointing specifically to these servers, please generate replacement configurations through our Config Generator in the Client Area.

Do not hesitate to contact us for any information or assistance.

Hi,
 
wow, thank you very much for the incredibly fast and detailed response! CASE CLOSED.
 
That clears things up completely. I will use 10.128.0.1 as the DNS server and DNAT target for my WireGuard setup from now on.

Also, thank you for acknowledging that the current Specs page is somewhat misleading regarding 10.4.0.1 and WireGuard. Looking forward to the updated documentation.

I also appreciate the additional explanation regarding DNS leak prevention and making sure DNS traffic cannot fall back to WAN. My OPNsense rules are already designed around that principle.

Overall very happy with the support and I'll happily renew for another three years when the Cyber Deal becomes available again. 🙂

Cheers!

AIRVPN DOES NOT RECOGNIZE ANYMORE VERISIGN, AFILIAS AND ICANN AUTHORITY. OUR COMMITMENT AGAINST UNITED STATES OF AMERICA UNFAIR AND ILLEGAL DOMAIN NAMES SEIZURES.

The United States of America authorities have been performing domain names seizures since the end of 2010. The seizures have been performed against perfectly legal web-sites and/or against web-sites outside US jurisdiction.

Administrators of some of those web-sites had been previously acquitted of any charge by courts in the European Union.

The domain name seizures affect the world wide web in its entirety since they are performed bypassing the original registrar and forcing VeriSign and Afilias (american companies which administer TLDs like .org, .net, .info and .com) to transfer the domain name to USA authorities property. No proper judicial overview is guaranteed during the seizure.

Given all of the above, we repute that these acts:

- are a violation of EU citizens fundamental rights, as enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights;
- are an attack against the Internet infrastructure and the cyberspace;
- are a strong hint which shows that decision capacities of USA Department of Justice and ICE are severely impaired;

and therefore from now on AirVPN does not recognize VeriSign, Afilias and/or ICANN authority over domain names. AirVPN refuses to resolve "seized" domain names to the IP address designated by USA authorities, allowing normal access to the original servers' websites / legitimate Ip addresses.

In order to fulfil the objective, we have put in place an experimental service which is already working fine. If you find anomalies, please let us know, the system will surely improve in time.

Kind regards
AirVPN admins

Hello!

Thank you for the detailed suggestion. The main reason for this design is privacy. Sharing public exit IP addresses among many customers is one of AirVPN's foundational privacy features, and we deliberately preserve that property for IPv6 as well.

Assigning a unique public IPv6 address to each customer or tunnel would make that tunnel's traffic distinguishable by its source address. Websites and other observers able to see multiple connections could use that address to correlate activity belonging to the same tunnel, even without knowing the customer's real identity. With a shared exit address, the address alone does not provide that distinction between customers.

Changing the address on each OpenVPN reconnect, or rotating it periodically through Eddie, would reduce the time window for this correlation. However, throughout each address lifetime it would still identify one tunnel rather than be shared by many customers. Rotation therefore does not preserve the same privacy property.

We understand the appeal of globally routable tunnel addresses and the compatibility concerns you raise. However, the availability of IPv6 addresses does not resolve this privacy tradeoff: assigning an exclusive public address to each customer would remove a fundamental characteristic of our service.

If you have a specific application or reproducible IPv6 issue with the current setup, please share the details so we can examine that separately.

Kind regards
 

Hello!

The paramount IPv6 privacy problem, which was considered by many as a critical or fatal flaw compromising adoption and usage, has been resolved through privacy extensions:
https://www.internetsociety.org/resources/deploy360/2014/privacy-extensions-for-ipv6-slaac/

Nowadays, ten years after that article by The Internet Society and 17 (seventeen) years after RFC 4941 virtually all widespread systems have finally adopted the very much needed privacy extensions. However, one bad apple may compromise the whole local network. See for example this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.08946 where the authors show how a single device at home that encodes its MAC address into the IPv6 address can be utilized as a tracking identifier for the entire end-user prefix. Therefore, it is good practice to verify with care every and each device and making sure that their Operating Systems implement the privacy extensions.

Other than that, we can't see any serious hindrance to adopt IPv6 as far as it pertains to privacy. Furthermore, in AirVPN we picked an unorthodox approach, i.e. we implemented NAT66 with ULA, as it is one of those rare cases where it comes handy to strengthen the anonymity layer (a thoughtful analysis of the pros and cons of NAT in IPv6 can be found in the following article for example https://blogs.infoblox.com/ipv6-coe/you-thought-there-was-no-nat-for-ipv6-but-nat-still-exists/ while a pragmatic approach is here: https://blog.ipspace.net/2013/09/to-ula-or-not-to-ula-thats-question/).

Switching from privacy to security, probably an informed choice can start by reading this article, that also includes other precious sources, again by the Internet Society:
https://www.internetsociety.org/deploy360/ipv6/security/faq/

Kind regards
 

Hello!

A few flood attacks caused various problems throughout August but the main problem since one or two weeks ago is the uplink capacity in our opinion.
We were expecting maintenance operation in the Zurich DC to increase uplink capacity and improve access switch redundancy by adding a second switch to the rack between Aug 31 and Sep 1, but it was unfortunately re-scheduled to Sep 8. We will evaluate whether the added capacity will be enough to resolve the problems and we will act accordingly.

Kind regards

We have kept the OP message to show the pervasiveness of the PRC's propaganda lackeys. We consider Taiwan (Republic of China) to be independent and autonomous from the PRC (People's Republic of China), as it is in fact. ipleak uses MaxMind and IANA databases to display results, and we are pleased that these are aligned with an anti-imperialist and democratic vision that is clearly unpalatable to the dictatorial regime of the PRC, which sees it as an obstacle to its expansionist ambitions.
