  1. I have noticed since yesterday that if I try to connect to Tauri server - Checking DNS fails everytime: I 2015.08.14 14:48:09 - /etc/resolv.conf renamed to /etc/resolv.conf.airvpn as backup I 2015.08.14 14:48:09 - DNS of the system updated to VPN DNS (Rename method: /etc/resolv.conf generated) I 2015.08.14 14:48:09 - Flushing DNS I 2015.08.14 14:48:09 - Checking route I 2015.08.14 14:48:10 - Checking DNS W 2015.08.14 14:48:29 - No such host is known ! 2015.08.14 14:48:29 - Disconnecting I have "Check if the tunnel use AirVPN DNS" checked in my Eddie (for Linux) settings. No such problem on other servers I use to connect.
  2. Here's something for the Win 8 / Win 10 users struggling with leaky DNS. https://medium.com/@ValdikSS/beware-of-windows-10-dns-resolver-and-dns-leaks-5bc5bfb4e3f1 Or there'e always Linux
  3. The adult site: elephanttube(dot)com Is out from the AirVPN Dns. (?) (Online blacklist check) www.elephanttube.com is not blacklisted. Best regards. TheLastCheck.
  4. Hi guys I'm trying to use AirVPN on my Nexus 5 and my Samsung Galaxy Tab S and due to the way Androids are, and at present with no apparent IPV6 non leaking solution in place by just about every VPN provider out there, as soon as I get connected, my IPV6 leaks, thus not allowing me to watch tv from abroad. Besides disabling IPV6 on my router, have you guys got a work around in place as yet? Cheers.
  5. Hi, I've been using ufw/gufw for a long time now to prevent leaks which works great after I followed worric's guide https://airvpn.org/topic/5586-prevent-leaks-with-linux-firestarter-also-stop-traffic-when-vpn-drops/?do=findComment&comment=5642 ​However there's one drawback, which is that all IP's must be resolved prior to connecting because the DNS resolution doesn't get through the firewall. The problem with this is that you can't let it choose the best server for the area/region by resolving for instance gb.vpn.airdns.org. It seems that the best you can do is get a random selection from the list of servers. Is there a way around this? For example to only let that dns query through? or am I wrong somehow? Any clarification is greatly appreciated! ​ Edit: Grammar
  6. I m connected to Talitha and all DNS is going trough the VPN. I took a look at my windows firewall (which i enabled due to "network lock") and it shows a lot of these: date time action protocol src-ip dst-ip src-port dst-port size tcpflags tcpsyn tcpack tcpwin icmptype icmpcode info path 2015-06-29 11:33:34 DROP UDP 192.168.2.94 54.172.47.69 58683 3478 0 - - - - - - - SEND 2015-06-29 11:33:35 DROP UDP 192.168.2.94 54.172.47.69 58683 3478 0 - - - - - - - SEND 2015-06-29 11:33:37 DROP UDP 192.168.2.94 54.172.47.69 58683 3478 0 - - - - - - - SEND 54.172.47.69 --> is an amazon IP After allowing this IP, my IP get leaked by webrtc. (tested on https://ipleak.net/) Can anyone explain this behaviour?
  7. I have a fibre (xDSL) modem (192.168.1.254), supplied by my ISP which has only a few settings available through the GUI - can't even change the IP address! Sitting behind this modem/router, and on a different subnet, is a DD-WRT router (192.168.0.1) which I use to connect to the AirVPN servers. I am having a problem with DNS settings - there are so many on the DD-WRT router and a few on the modem/router, and I don't really understand how it works! Just now the AirVPN website shows me as being connected, but a DNS leak test shows my ISP's DNS servers! For the last few weeks I have been getting around this problem by using the AirVPN client software to connect to the internet which works as it should. Can anyone advise me on whether I just need to change some DNS settings to get it to work properly or do I need to add some admin commands in DD-WRT? Maybe this would be worth putting in the tutorials section if it is resolved as more ISPs seem to be giving out routers with minimal settings? Attached are screenshots of the DD-WRT Router [192.168.0.1] settings If any more info is needed just let me know. Thanks in advance. :-)
  8. Hey all I need some help. I am using a DD-WRT based router. I followed all the instruction on the setup page. I still am having problems changing my DNS from Germany to USA or any other country. I have tried to put different Static DNS IP's on the Router and still it is giving me a DSN of being in Germany. (By the way I am living in Germany it anyone is confused.) Is there some that i am missing and or not doing on the commands and or the Static DNS Ip's? Thank you for your time Jim
  9. Hi Anyone know how to set-up the VPN with the Wii U?
  10. When connected to the VPN, mailinator.com is not reachable (other website can be reached). I tried switching to another servers, but it still couldn't be resolved. Disconnecting from VPN I can connect to that website. Could you help me?
  11. I am trying to connect via a batch file: CLI.exe -netlock -advanced.windows.dns_force -login=<username>-password=<password> -connect -server -port=443 -protocol=UDP First thing to mention is that CLI.exe must be run as administrator in Win 8.1, if not the ARP flush fails. In the command line I can see "netlock activated" but if visit www.ipleak.net webrtc and dns is leaking. edit: I also have the problem with the GUI WebRTC and DNS is leaking.
  12. Hello, After doing the reading on DNS leaks and using the ipleak.net site (nice tool), I found that one of my computers using a Windows 7 OS was subject to DNS leaks. I also found that the firewall I am using is not the most popular on these forums. I am using the Norton Smart Firewall which is part of the NIS package. After reviewing several pages and articles (with https://airvpn.org/topic/1713-win-mac-bsd-block-traffic-when-vpn-disconnects/?p=10343 being the most helpful, though slightly dated due to the new NIS interface), I was able to set up two rules. One for when the VPN was connected to only allow TCP/UDP traffic from a range of 10.4.0.0->10.9.255.255. The other to block traffic from the address of my LAN for when the VPN was not connected. With this set up, the computer checks out fine in ipleak.net. (Of course also had to make adjustments for WebRTC). However, I have one resulting issues I was wonder if anyone might be able to comment on. When I first turn on my computer, I have to disable my firewall before OpenVPN can establish the VPN connection. (I do not use EDDIE.) Once I am connected to the VPN, I can then re-enable the firewall and all works fine. Not the hardest step, but was trying to find a more seemless way to do this. Also as an aside, I only chose to allow TCP/UDP traffic when connected to the VPN, vice also allowing ICMP/ICMPv6. Are their any significant problems with the choice? I have playing with the settings for a bit, but have noticed any issue, but then definitely would not call myself the most savvy. Thanks for any comments.
  13. I have set up AirVPN on my pfSense router with the help of the instructions I found here on this forum. Unfortunately I experience some DNS problems with the AirVPN DNS server 10.4.0.1. The AirVPN server is the first DNS (use VPN tunnel) and the other two OpenDNS server. Also the strict order option is set so se they are queried sequentially. I connect to german servers (UDP 443) but the problem not seems to be related to one certain server and may occur immediately after connecting to it or even after a day or two. Restarting the tunnel or the router itself fixes the problem, often needs a few tries. Surprisingly it is only a few websites that are affected and cannot resolve properly. Those are for example (ironically) airvpn.org, windowscentral.com, pandawill.com just to mention a few. If I omit AirVPN's DNS completely and only rely on the OpenDNS servers I not experience this issue at all and no DNS problems for weeks! I attached some information and would appreciate any help on this.

    DNS checking failed

    OS: Windows 7 32 bits I get a DNS checking failed when activating "Check if tunnel use Airvpn DNS" in Eddie 2.8.8 Eddie won't connect and try again and again...untill i cancel the connection and deactivate that DNS check it of course connects correctly. Is it an Eddie bug or Airvpn issue ? See a part of the log below that repeats when Eddie Disconnects, reconnects... . 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - OpenVPN > Initialization Sequence Completed I 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - Flushing DNS I 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - Checking route I 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - Checking DNS E 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - DNS checking failed. . 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - OpenVPN > MANAGEMENT: Client connected from [AF_INET]127.0.0.1:3100 ! 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - Disconnecting . 2015.02.01 12:08:37 - Management - Send 'signal SIGTERM'
  15. Hello! The idea of bringing this up is a result of many questions lately, that some devices or clients override OS settings and query their own DNS servers without the users permission. I would like to suggest a small enhancement, which will potentially prevent all user mistakes in the future, and will allow an even better VPN experience with less configuration. The idea is to have 2 additional options in the config generator section of the Client Area, where the user would be able to "opt-in" in case he wants the feature. One is something like "Force all applications use Air's VPN server", in which case you will have to add something like this: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 10.4.12.34 -p udp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to 10.4.0.1 iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 10.4.12.34 -p tcp --dport 53 -j DNAT --to 10.4.0.1 The internal IP of the client is known to you, here is just examples of how I assume it should look on the server side. The second option in the Client Area, can be called something like "Prevent all potential DNS leaks, I will configure Air's DNS manually" Then, a rule like this can come in place: iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -s 10.4.12.34 -d 10.0.0.0/8 --dport 53 -j ACCEPT iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -s 10.4.12.34 -d 10.0.0.0/8 --dport 53 -j ACCEPT iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -s 10.4.12.34 --dport 53 -j DROP iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -s 10.4.12.34 --dport 53 -j DROP All the examples are made up, I am sure that a more elegant way of achieving this can take place, such as a special subnet for all users of each group. Today these methods are used in corporate VPNs mainly to enforce whitelisting/blacklisting of URLs, but I don't see a reason why we can't do the same here. Please share your comments zhang888
  16. All: My TunnelBlick client is not starting properly, and I cannot import the .ovpn or .tblk files into TunnelBlick. So, I have resorted to using Viscosity. The problem with Viscosity is that it is not updating my /etc/resolv.conf once the VPN client takes over. Does anyone use Viscosity out there? Is airdns.org acceptable to use for all my AirVPN connections?
  17. I installed openvpn on FreeBSD 10.1 and the DNS isn't working. I put these lines in rc.conf: openvpn_enable="YES" openvpn_if="tun" openvpn_configfile="/usr/local/etc/openvpn/[whatever].ovpn" I copied the .ovpn file to /usr/local/etc/openvpn. When I reboot, openvpn starts fine. I don't have a firewall on the system. Did I forget to do something?
  18. Hey I got a problem. When i connect to a vpn server, it says connected. but im still using my ISP IP instead of the IP of the VPN Server... How do i fix this? These are my machine details: Operating System Version: Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Datacenter Hardware information: HP ProLiant ML110 G6 Processors: Intel® Xeon® CPU X3430 @2.40GHz Installed Memory (RAM): 24GB Installed Roles: AD DSDHCPDNSFile and Storage ServicesHyper-VIIS 8.0IPAMNAPRemote AccessWDSLog: http://pastebin.com/43UnP5Ci SOLVED: This message is the answer!: Awesome StaffAdvanced Member Staff5013 postsPosted Yesterday, 11:40 PM Hello!

  19. Hi guys, I set up Comodo Firewall in the way you descriped it on this tutorial https://airvpn.org/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=3&id=3405&Itemid=142 I did everything correctly (I think so) but I'm still leaking DNS. When I access AirVPN homepage via VPNClient it says at the bottom "not connected" Any ideas how to fix this?? I can see my own IP address
  20. I've been using this service for some time, here I have a few questions to the admins 1. Do you plan to enable DNSSEC on your DNS service (10.4.0.1)? 2. Do you plan to enable IPv6 at exits and inside the tunnel? And as transport protocol? I think recent versions of OpenVPN can do that easier than before (but I haven't tested myself). 3. Can you make it possible to disable/renew user keys and certificates and have 3 of them at a time, one for every allowed device? Now I don't know how to act if I leak my key.
  21. I am having a bit of trouble editing the resolv.conf file. Aparently, I cant edit it manually as suggested on the Arch wiki. "To use alternative DNS servers, edit /etc/resolv.conf and add them to the top of the file so they are used first, optionally removing or commenting out already listed servers." https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Resolv.conf Although I can open the file and edit it, I can't save the nameservers I entered. (I am as admin with root privileges.) I thought maybe it was being run by another process so I tried lsattr and nothing was holding it. I even ran chattr -i /etc/resolv.conf just to make sure. Still no avail.
  22. Hi I think I have a dns leak, when I try to connect to kickass.to I get an "Error - site blocked". When I checked with ipleak it shows: AirVPN Server exit node but also a BT DNS address. I get the same results, ip exit node and dns, when I check with dnsleaktest. I connect with: sudo openvpn AirVPN_Europe_UDP-443.ovpn I think the BT DNS is a leak, not sure why this is happening.
  23. I connect to AirVPN using the network-manager applet on Fedora 20 x64. I have a couple of ports forwarded, which are manually allowed in Fedora's firewall and entered into qBittorrent (latest v3.1.9-2). I have just noticed that while the connection never leaks DNS when used normally, as soon as qBittorrent is running my DNS leaks almost every time I test. Here is what happens once qBittorrent is open: Once qBittorrent is closed, the leaks stop. Does anyone have any ideas? As far as I knew DNS leaks were basically a Windows problem. Currently qBittorrent is set to use the tun0 interface only, and my network-manager settings are as follows: Ethernet: Connect automatically, IPv4 only, connect to AirVPN as soon as interface is up. AirVPN: Port 443 over UDP, no special settings after importing config files from Air's generator. The whole machine connects through an IPFire (Linux hardware firewall/router distro) box. Can anyone help shed some light on this please? Thanks in advance.
  24. How do you configure the firewall (I'm wondering about both Comodo (Windows) and GUFW (Linux)) when using Air VPN over TOR? Or, are the firewall settings to prevent leaks the same as if I were just using Air VPN? Assuming I was fine with my ISP seeing that I'm using TOR, is there any reason to choose TOR over VPN instead of VPN over TOR? I read the TOR page on this site, but I just want to be sure there aren't cases in which I shouldn't choose VPN over TOR. I've heard some people talk about wanting to hide from their ISP the fact that they are using TOR. Why is this? Do some ISPs not tolerate their customers using TOR?
  25. Hi AirVPN, I would like to make a suggestion for a DNS only geolocation bypass like usunblock and other similar services as a extra or complimentary service to go with your VPN service. I suggest this because devices like Chromecast don't work when you for example connect your iPhone to the US VPN and try and cast it doesn't work as the iPhone no longer sees the Chromecast on the network. I think this feature would also be good for other devices that don't provide VPN support or for people that just want to access content their not able too just because they live in a different country.
