Hi there I seem to be getting multiple 'DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_BAD_CONFIG' errors with the latest 2.12.4 client on a lot of the UK servers leading me to disconnect then reconnect (successfully) to a different server. Has anyone else observed this? Any client settings changes anyone can recommend or are these server side issues at the moment?

Unfortunately, this is a bit of a multi-disciplinary question that has to be prefaced with some background. I've got my connection to AirVPN set up on my pfSense box and am using the Resolver there in the default, non-forwarding mode. That means for DNS lookups, pfSense (through Resolver) is supposed to directly query the top-level DNS servers for name resolution without using any specified, lower-level DNS servers. In one sense, it seems to be working in that none of the leak-testing sites (like ipleak.net) show any DNS servers other than AirVPNs. On the other hand, I don't understand how those sites even see those AirVPN DNS servers at all since pfSense isn't set up to use them. Worse, I recently found out that DNS queries through Resolver in the default, non-forwarding mode do NOT get routed through the NAT/Firewall rules: they're sent out the default gateway (my WAN, not my VPN tunnel). So, theoretically, my DNS lookups are in the open instead of through AirVPN. If that's true, why do places like ipleak.net not show a DNS leak? How do they determine what DNS server I'm using? Does it just ask my server what DNS is associated with it? Or, does it look for the DNS requests coming from my system? But, if Resolver is sending its own DNS requests over the WAN, then would places like ipleak.net even see them?

Hi all I'm wondering if anyone else is having connection issues with some of the UK servers? Now and again I'm getting 'Bad DNS Lookup' issues when using certain ones? Don't know which ones off hand, but could look into logs if someone needs me to. I also seem to be able to browse Netflix through the UK servers now. I'm wondering if this is tied up to the reconfiguration allowing this?

For approximately the last two to four weeks I have been experiencing very slow browsing when connected thru the AirVPN 2.10.3 client from my Windows 10 machine. I believe the issue is related to DNS resolution because the speed of my connection seems normal when I am engaged in large file transfers; it only slows down when I am querying DNS continuously, such as when I'm browsing in Chrome. My computer is Windows 10 Pro, 64bit,

I recently upgraded to latest Ubuntu Version and just found out I'm leaking DNS. Even though I'm using Eddie v2.12.4 with network lock enabled. I tried to add block-outside-dns to ovpn directives in Eddie settings but I'm still leaking DNS. Didn't read correct, this works only in Windows. edit: I tried to use OpenVPN with a config file and DNS push with resolvconf instead of Eddie with same results. Still leaking DNS. Tried to use a VM with Ubuntu 16.10 configured DNS push and had no leaks. So I guess something is wrong with resolvconf in Ubuntu 17.04. edit2: Seems to be a Ubuntu 17.04 problem. Many users seem to have problems with DNS. Still looking for help here. If anyone has an idea. Since this is no Eddie specific problem please push this topic to the right subforum.

Hi Arch Linux (Gnome desktop). Downloaded Eddie 2.12.4 from AirVPN, ran it as-is and I can't connect. It attempts the connection to a recommended server. Client output is like this: Checking DNS then Checking DNS don't match then Disconnecting then Restarting in 3 seconds It tries to another server and fails again in the same way. Suggestions? Thanks in advance! Logs: I 2017.04.08 18:59:09 - Session starting. . 2017.04.08 18:59:09 - Unable to understand if IPv6 is active.

I used DNSCrypt (dnscrypt.org) several weeks ago together with AirVPN, and found the performance was satisfactory. I knew it would be duplicated to use DNSCrypt instead of AirVPN's DNS, but I had reasons to replace Eddie's default DNS setting, mentioned in another thread: https://airvpn.org/topic/21590-dns-upload-traffic-via-eddie/ Anyone have tried DNSCrypt? What do you think its pros and cons?

Hello everyone. I was wondering if it is possible to use an ad-blocking non-AirVPN DNS on iOS? Why do we have to use the original airVPN DNS in the first place. We should have a choice of what dns server(s) we wish to use. Does anyone know if and how to get this to work? Thanks.

read through thread after thread and i can't solve this... i need DNS to work both within and outside of the VPN (using a different connection), but when the tunnel connection is active, i want to use only the DNS provided by the Air servers mint 18.1/opendns process should be straight forward: config gen > advanced > resolve host names > generate > change 'opvn' extensions to 'conf' and dump files in /etc/openvpn router (tomato): advanced > DHCP/DNS > 'Use internal DNS' ??? i don't know, but doesn't seem to work without this selected - 'Use received DNS with user-entered DNS' ??? i don't know OS: connection editor > IPV4 > method: tried 'automatic' and 'automatic (addresses only)' - no DNS servers added to the IPV4 tab (shouldn't need any since domains were resolved when i gen'd the config's?) so when i restart openvpn and connect to the connection i created, i expect that no DNS lookup should be needed to reach the VPN because the IP's were resolved when i gen'd the config files - and after i connect, i should be using the VPN DNS, however i cannot even connect to the servers adding 10.4.0.1 to resolv.conf does not survive a reboot and nothing else i've tried works the only way i can connect seems to be to set 'method' to 'automatic' in the connection editor and use the random DNS servers configured in the router - so when i go to ipleak.net, i'm connected to the VPN, but the DNS is not provided by the VPN server

Why can't I connect to German serves anymore? The connection always fails while performing the DNS check. Here is an extract of today's log after trying to connect to three different German servers.

Hello everyone! I am using AirVPN on Fedora 25 and the first week it worked perfectly. But, as I got a router (D-Link DIR-868L) this week I have started noticing DNS Leaks occurring now and then, and if I bypass the router by connecting straight to wall the DNS leaks go away. It doesn't seem to matter what way I have of connecting to the VPN, I have tried Gnome-Network-Manager, Eddie and using the terminal and it is all the same. How can I fix this?

Hi everyone, Since I changed the DNS servers from my internet box, I can only access to websites threw their IP (000.0.00.00) and not from their names (google.com). I think it's related to a DNS resolution problem. I've tried some known issues on Ubuntu such as adding these lines to my ovpn files : script-security 2up /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-confdown /etc/openvpn/update-resolv-conf Here is my connection logs : Thanks ! agent41

Hi, I've noticed that DNS Name resolution from 10.4.0.1 seems to fail infrequently but it does so none the less. I have my router configured to use 10.4.0.1 as the sole DNS server - and occasionally - but for no reason i can find - name resolution will simply stop working for SOME sites. Using the routers built in DNS query tool during an "outage" i lookup cnet.com for example and get the following:- Host "cnet.com" could not be resolved.Timingsame server Query time 10.4.0.1 31 msec So from that i can see that the query is going to 10.4.0.1, that it is responding but it is not resolving cnet.com If i simply wait and do nothing for a few minutes and try again it starts to work and i'll get the following (again for cnet.com):- Results Result Record type 64.30.228.118 ATimingsName server Query time 10.4.0.1 31 msec Furthermore, whilst this is going on, I CAN get other sites to resolve with no issue so it seems limited to random sites and it's not a total outage. During this time, the VPN is stable and nothing obvious is happening that i can see on my end and the outage usually lasts for 2 - 5 minutes but i can go quite a while without noticing a re occurrence of the issue. Any ideas?

,

Here: https://airvpn.org/specs/ is stated that each AirVPN server has its own DNS server. Why is that? Why are the DNS servers protocol and port specific? Why not give just one? Is that arbitrary or does it serve a purpose besides load balancing? What will happen if I use for example UDP Port 53 for my VPN connection and 10.9.0.1 as my DNS server instead of the listed 10.8.0.1?

I can not go to many sites

So I've just installed the AirVPN client and got it to work without any troubles, every setting is set on default. But sadly after running a test on doileak.com (can't connect to doileak.net ??) I see instances of DNS requests originating from my ips. I use Firefox which according to the test is not suffering from an WebRTC IP Leak. When checking the ethernet connections like the TAP-Windows Adapter V9 IPV4 settings I do see its working with a preferred DNS server adress. Changing this to obtaining a DNS server address automatically did not solve the issue. Neither after a pc restart. I have no idea how to solve this. (ps. I confused doileak.com with ipleak.net, so yeah of course I cannot connect to doileak.net )

Booted my machine today and can no longer connect to the internet unless I connect to AirVPN first. Seems to be a DNS error but I can't for the life of me figure out what the problem is or how to revert to yesterday.

at http://reg.for.free you can set up your own free domain which anyone can surf to who uses a proper nameserver (dns) such as those listed here: https://www.opennicproject.org AirVPN has those DNS built-in right from the start. It usually easy to setup an openNIC nameserver in nm-applet in Linux via GUI (just add the address 5.135.183.146 ).

re-edit: AirVPN ALREADY does support openNIC top level domains such as .bit .fur .free .pirate asf. ! Would it not be cool to support domains out of ICANN ? http://wiki.opennicproject.org/OpenNICNamespaces Anyone can register their webservers free of charge! If Air supported that right out of the box, it would be some nice added value! Or does it introduce new problems?

Hi, I'm curious as to why AirVPN DNS servers do not support OpenNIC TLDs, and only seem to recognize ICANN domains even though AirVPN said they no longer recognize ICANN's authority. Any details would be appreciated. Thanks!

Any input is greatly appreciated
