  1. Let's be clear. French web isn't closed, we can consult foreign websites unlike in North Corea, Russia or China. Name me any propagandized country who allows his people to consult other medias. Telling we wouldn't see anything is insulting our intelligence. Why don't we talk about US government who wants to ban TikTok, like Huawei and many others ? The difference between Rumble in France and Tiktok in US is pretty simple. Tiktok didn't boke US laws so the government had to find excuses related to "national security". Rumble hosts prohibit contents according french and european laws. France asked to Rumble to remove these contents (accounts belonging to russian medias doing disinformation (these medias are not only banned in France but also in whole Europe), to far right ppl, etc...). In France you're not allowed to publish anti-semitic speech in front of a nazi flag and that's normal. Sorry to tell you but it's the only truth, there's no conspiracy theory in this affair.
  2. I just simply chose recommended server. It keeps connecting different servers but never succeeded. Is AirVPN working well in China now? Thanks folks
  3. Correlation != Causation. What if the service was set up by a desperate party because Russia banned VPN usage? Don't you think it makes sense? If you are a Russian in Russia and you cannot pay for the VPN services around the world because of sanctions (those services would give you a less restricted internet, after all), wouldn't you try to find a service which accepts whatever payment processors are available to you? Exactly – learn Russian or ask someone like me to translate for you. Don't go through the world, fingers pointing in crude directions, and voicing mere suspicions. No, it doesn't. Yandex is what Google is to US, or Tencent to China – a provider of various internet services tailored to a specific ethnic group's market. Yandex has got its own networks, which includes targeted advertising and analytics. Why shouldn't Yandex be allowed to offer their services to Russian diasporas across the world? Betteridge's law of headlines states that "any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no".
  4. Hi team, Thank you for the great service! I've been using AirVPN and it has been very stable. I used a Asus router and use OpenVPN there. It works fine for a couple of month. However, today it started not connecting. I've tried multiple config and all of them don't work. Would you please help me take a look on what's happening? Thank you so much! Best wishes syslog.txt
  5. I have a business trip to China in 2 months, and I wanted to check with folks here to ask if anyone ever used Airvpn in China. I know that a lot of VPNs don't work there. I would be glad if someone who has been there recently can tell me if it works, or whether I need to configure some advanced settings to use it in China. Thanks
  6. On a Huawei Honor mobile phone, AirVPN does not seem to work in China. I have installed the Android Client (Eddie - Air VPNGUI) without problems, and it also worked in other countries without problems. But in China it does not work. The only different setting I made to the standard settings is that I set the "Current local country" from the drop-down list to "People's Republic of China". Are there any other special settings one must use on a mobile phone when in China?
  7. I'm curious to know if @Lao8 could fix their issue. I'm looking to use it in China.
  8. There are increasing reports about AirVPN not working with cellular networks in Russia. I've been contacted more frequently by other Russians about this recently but so far there are no definitive solutions. Try the following configuration that works in China:-- Люди рассказывают всё больше и больше о проблемах с соединением к AirVPN через российские мобильные сети. Мне в последнее время многие россиане лично пишут, но пока решении нету. Попробуйте верхнюю конфигурацию, работающюю в Китае.
  9. Using the VPN from china is either not connecting or super slow. What’s the preferred settings at the moment?
  10. Currently lifted for the time being, nothing to see here.
  11. I read on the internet and learned that ssl and ssh can be blocked. I also saw an article on China and Russia Reddit. In the reddit thread in Russia, we use v2ray and they say there is no blocking. I personally learned from YouTube that Twitter and Instagram use sockshadow in China. Airvpn users can easily use them if they travel to Russia and China. I have a question for airvpn admins and moderators. I wanted to know why V2ray and sockshadow were not considered. Is there a security weakness?
  12. Hi! Please, somebody can confirm that AirVPN is working in China (2022)? Thanks, M
  13. Hello! We're sorry, they are not available. Alipay and Unionpay were available for a very short time through 2checkout which we do not use anymore at the moment. Anyway, for some reason probably related to written or unwritten rules by China authorities on payment processors and never explained clearly to us, Chinese payment processors refuse to process payments to us and, we infer, to any VPN service not approved by the government. You can find a complete list of accepted payment methods in the "buy" page: https://airvpn.org/buy Kind regards
  14. Also please note that this list isn't comprehensive given that the address ranges for regions such as China wasn't specified. My reasoning for this is players would need to be aware of PerfectWorld and China's mass adoption of IPv6, and solutions for those affected users requires a different approach given the Steam client and services networking when handling traffic destined for those regions.
  15. There are a couple of China-related threads already - did you search for them? You did not mention how you connect (protocol? port? ...). One config you may try has been posted here:
  16. My flight was postponed and as a lone stranger in a strange land when the evening starts on a Sunday I have now plenty of available time. I'm posting what I promised, let me know where you agree and where you disagree and why. I provide my own reasons to explain each score modification from the original table. At the end I determine the new average score after the changes. One score modification is pejorative, I provide good reasons in my opinion in that case too. The source table is the one linked originally when this thread was created. After a discussion I would like to publish the fixes wherever I can, especially in /r/vpnreviews (but the message could be deleted there) but first I would like to gather opinions, corrections and comments (or insults! ). In brackets the scoring given by the table's author, followed by my reasons. SPEED 5 (4) For my job I spend my years in Spain, Italy, Germany, China and Japan and AirVPN is the fastest in each of these countries with plenty of different providers. Since Mullvad and NordVPN get "5" but are significantly slower than AirVPN for me, I assign to AirVPN a 5 too.In China AirVPN is slow but at least it bypasses the blocks, while all the other VPN I tested don't, except in luxury hotels in Shanghai and other major cities, where the blocks are lifted for tourists and businessmen. PROTOCOLS 5 (1) Because AirVPN offers a huge variety of protocols on a great variety of ports. While it lacks obfsproxy, it offers a combo over Tor/SSL/TLS/SSH, WireGuard with pre-shared keys, connectable to low and high ports unavailable on other VPN services rated "5". So a "5" is due to AirVPN as well. RAM SERVERS 5 (0) Because I trust AirVPN staff claiming this. "Running on" RAM disks is trivial and easy, I see no reason to doubt about this claim on such an obvious and easy to implement feature. TRANSPARENCY BUG BOUNTY 5 (3) Because the Vulnerability Disclosure Policy and Bug Bounty Program are clearly written, have their own page linked by the FAQ, provide clear and easy instructions to report, and publish transparently a vulnerability found by Fortinet labs. PRICING 5 (3) Because AirVPN offers by far the best price on long plans. It is even cheaper during promotions, it offers free access and trials very liberally. BYPASSING RESTRICTIVE NETWORKS 5 (2) Because it's the only VPN I can still access from various China cities. ETHICS 5 (3) Because AirVPN - does not pay for reviews (verified through baits, sorry staff ) - does not pay ransoms to cancel a fabricated negative review - had the guts and the intellectual honesty to support WikiLeaks and Assange during the outrageous smear campaign and character assassination plotted by USA, UK and Sweden. No other VPN spent a word at those times and not even by far they donated the tens of thousand bucks donated by AirVPN - runs directly or indirectly many Tor nodes - is an early supporter of Mastodon and PeerTube - is a major monetary supporter of Xnet open source project to free European schools from nefarious Google and Microsoft online tools - releases only free and open source software - supported economically Chelsea Manning when she heavily needed money. AirVPN did so in defiance of all the pressures and the threats I and you all could read (in this forum too, do you remember?) against anyone who "dared" to support monetarily her - offers a tracker free Android software CUSTOMER SUPPORT 5 (3) Because it is the only support service that was able to explain to me how to run an FTP server behind a VPN server and how to load balance from a single BSD / pfSense system two or more simultaneous connections to different VPN servers. AD-BLOCKER 5 (0) Because the AirVPN ad blocker is the most flexible and configurable tool I have seen in any VPN service with custom exceptions, additions, multiple public list choices and API support. LEAK PROTECTION 5 (4) Because the leak protection is well written firewall rules and more effective than NordVPN leak protection. Since Nord has 5, then AirVPN must have 5 too. OTHER ADDITIONAL FEATURES 5 (2) Because it's the only VPN offering: - a tool to find contiguous remote ports to forward - a good API to interact with several tools avoiding the web site manual interfacing - multiple DDNS services which really work - the cooolest configuration generator, accessible both from web and API - a valuable and unique feature to decide which ports must be forwarded to which devices - OpenVPN3 development which wiped out multi-year bugs in the original OpenVPN3 library - OpenVPN over Tor "natively" (with this I mean that the user just need to run Tor and then the Eddie software does all the required adjustments and setup to connect OpenVPN through Tor) on Eddie for Windows, Linux, Mac AVAILABILITY 1 (3) Two points less, this is the only pejorative score in my opinion. Because: - the AirVPN Suite for Linux, which on the other hand is impeccably documented, still does not offer WireGuard after 1 year that WireGuard is available on VPN servers, hinting to a dangerously slow development activity - the AirVPN Suite for Linux does not even offer the most basic traffic splitting abilities, forcing the Linux users to custom solutions and unnecessary work, or to switch to Eddie with Mono - Eddie for Windows, Linux and Mac documentation is shabby and lazy. Some interesting features of the GUI are completely undocumented. - Eddie for Linux still needs the Mono framework for the GUI, hindering usage on embedded and low specs systems. With the above corrections, the total score goes from 47 to 75 (+28), and the average score goes to 75/18 = 4.17. Pretty impressive. Let me know what you think, if you find errors and anything else you want. Did I forget some fancy AirVPN feature? Did I forget some important flaw? After the discussion to improve me and fix errors, I will publish this as a review around, in Reddit, including r/vpnreviews (where it could be deleted, we'll see). Greetings from somewhere in Japan. Hope to read you all when I am back to Europe.
  17. Hello! We're not aware of any security concern as they are layers "on top" of well tested tunnels without known vulnerabilities. Currently Russia and China users can access AirVPN, however should the need arise we strongly recommend Tor with private bridges with various pluggable transports. We have invested a lot on Tor infrastructure (see our mission), including support for an important amount of worldwide Tor exit nodes traffic, and Tor is free for everybody. No matter the obfuscation technique employed, a country or ISP can block any VPN service (and other services operated by small or average sized companies) by harvesting and blocking its servers IP addresses, a task which, on the contrary, becomes quite difficult with Tor, where volunteers all around the world set up private Tor bridges every day. https://bridges.torproject.org/ Kind regards
  18. That is true. I have friends in China successfully using VPN's and Tor with pluggable transports / obfuscation mechanisms. That is not possible for the entire population but it can make it harder for the less advanced users as some solutions might not work any more out of the box, just click click connect, which will confuse the average user, but I agree it's probably technically impossible to block it for 100% of the population.
  19. its just not something which is possible, if china can't do it then its pretty clear russia won't stand a chance
  20. Thanks for the link. It is one of the extensions of the currently proposed law that wants to extend it to also ban VPNs. Even with that extension retracted, the original law still wants ISPs, DNS providers and browsers to block whatever the French government and authorities ask them to. The first amendment is off the table but the second one isn't and the entire law is not either. This is exactly how officially registered public VPNs in Russia ought to work currently. I have said in previous threads that it should be a red flag how the press/institutions do not highlight the fact that either China's Great Firewall or Russia's internet laws are all about blocking and governmental censorship. That's because similar laws are desired in other countries too, nobody wants to rally up the citizens against them. In my opinion only the US remains a tough nut to crack for such a law. We shall see what happens to Tiktok and that bill, maybe it will really fall into Microsoft's lap (and confirm Microsoft's allegiance to the government's power structures and cooperation).
  21. Hello! It's a crack for some program unrelated to AirVPN or a malware. Our software does not need any crack, it is free and open source software which does not need the activation key they claim they give you. There's another "Air VPN" (with a space) in China using fraudulently this name but it was shut down recently. We will hide your link just in case it's malware. About NordVPN, yes, they have been cracked a couple of times and thousands of account were compromised in the past. By the way still unrelated to AirVPN. Kind regards
  22. Hello! It might be relevant to know (just in case) that currently connections from Russia, China, Egypt, UAE may work only with OpenVPN in TCP, to port 53 or 443, in tls-crypt (entry-IP address THREE). OpenVPN over SSH is working too. Connections from Iran do not work, no matter the connection mode you try. To Iranian citizens we recommend Tor obfuscated and private bridges. You will need to update your bridge frequently. Kind regards
  23. I do not think the last part is particularly true. You will have a better chance bitTorrenting in areas that have more lax rules (think Netherlands, Sweden, Romania, Iceland etc.) and the Provider is less likely to get a court order inquiry for information. If, at the least, a Provider cannot directly tie you to the piracy, they might be able to tie payment method depending if that was anonymous (read AirVPN privacy policy carefully: they specifically state to use more anonymous payment gateways [BitCoin] but they don't explicitly state why). I think you are confusing who the Provider is and what data they own. The servers provider(s) are the datacenter owners (like Leaseweb). The service provider is AirVPN, based in Italy. AirVPN doesn't own the servers, it rents them from the servers providers. The servers providers, depending on the country in which it is located may receive a court rule (which, for movie piracy, is extremely unlikely). Not only they can't tie you to the piracy because of the no log policy, they also don't have any of your payment informations you only gave to AirVPN. Legally, the servers providers only know AirVPN for which they have a commercial contract. Concerning the privacy policy: Using anonymous payment gateways is very useful in countries where using VPNs are forbidden (Russia, China and many others). It will be way trickier for them to prove that you bought those illegal services.
  24. Hello, I'm looking for servers that will provide optimum download and upload for users physically located in China. I used to have good performance with the Japan servers although that was a long time ago. Certain Netherlands servers (Alpheratz, in particular) were very strong for a period, although the routing appears to change a lot, taking the high download speeds with them If anyone as any suggestions for servers to try or if the admins can suggest any techniques I can use to determine the best servers myself, I'd appreciate it!
  25. I am using it in China. The connectino is a bit slow, but stable. There's no proble checking emails. I even watch YouTube and Netflix using airVPN regularly. Laptop: M1 Macbook Air, with the Eddie client. Mobile: IOS, OpenVPN software with configuration file generated from the airvpn website
