Since it is not very easy to use a VPN from countries like Iran a recorded a tutorial on how to use airvpn from these countries: https://usefulvid.com/bypass-the-persian-and-chinese-firewall-by-using-airvpn-with-ssl/ The videos are hosted on my website and on youtube. The reason is that it is not possible to access youtube from Iran. https://youtu.be/jl8I2-GQF94 It would be nice if you could share this with your friends in Iran, China, Turkey, Russia, UAE, Saudi Arabia and provide feedback if this method works. You can also download this video from my website to make it easier to share and spread the word. A video on how to use stunnel on android will follow and also published on this site. Update on 6.1.2018: The Video for Android is finally published: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwf5JI6t0TI For all who suffer from youtube censorship this is the link for you: https://usefulvid.com/bypass-the-persian-and-chinese-firewall-by-using-airvpn-with-ssl/ Second Video on the page

I just now saw a post in my Telegram newsfeed which had this to say: VPNs targeted, throttled - Gov Jan6 Patriot witch-hunt? https://youtu.be/38za1LYj2XQ Here is the info undeneath the actual YOUTUBE video: HOW can ANYONE "throttle" VPN traffic if it is encrypted? unless they watch a certain port all the time??? And AirVPN lets us pick our own ports or sets apart isolated ports for us.... Why is this even happening?!

Hello everybody, first of all, I love AirVPN, and I will continue to use it. It works perfectly 99,9% of the times. But for these 00,1% I need a good alternative. I am living in China. I need a good VPN for China. Price isn’t important. It would be nice to run on Android and Windows and have a similar excellent policy like AirVPN. Does anybody have a suggestion? (and be sure that it works in China in the year 2018). Thank you very much for your help!

Hey Guys, since yesterday all airVPN servers in Beijing (China) are down. I'm subscribed to two VPN providers and right now only 2 servers are working, none from airVPN. All servers went offline at the same time. Can't connect through my phone either. Just me? Thanks for quick responses!

Hi, when, if ever will there be more Japan servers? (Question to staff) At least another one would be nice. It's the ONLY server which gives a good latency when connecting from China. For example, the Japan based Iskandar server can achieve 79ms whereas all the others start at 190ms + when connecting from China. Can other China users verify this is the case for them, too? (All China users reading this please comment about your latency!....)

hello, i am using linux version of airvpn (ubuntu, x64) and it doesnt work in china. i was trying to fix it myself checking the forum. someone recommended to use IP addresses 3 and 4 tls-crypt which is not avalible in my version. how can we the problem be solved?

Hey guys, just thought I'd provide some detail of my experiences using Airvpn in mainland China. Disclaimer: I'm in IT Platform: Nexus 6P, Oreo 8.1 April security patch, *not* rooted Client: OpenVPN for Android Location: Nanning, Guangxi I was last in mainland China in Oct 2017. We visited Guangxi and Guangdong, and I was forced to use the Hong Kong UDP-Altentry as nothing else worked. This was quite unreliable and whilst some places we visited were remote and rural, they still had good broadband speed for the locals. This time around everything works. Everything in the screenshot. I find that strange. The Chinese government officially cracked down *more" in Feb 2018, so why would these now all work? One thing I have noticed is in one hotel, only Hong Kong UDP-Altentry would work. This was sometimes the case in public free WiFi hotspots also. Everyone in IT security knows that layers are important, so I can only assume that large enough public WiFi (large hotel chains etc.) are required by law to have a level of filtering (perhaps dropping all UDP on 80 and 443, as sometimes only TCP would work) Presumably the Chinese government may look at forums like these in order to bolster their security, but perhaps they have relaxed VPN access in order to "catch" more nationals in the act. A friend lent us a SIM card, which is China Telecom and not only is the LTE *fast*, but again, all VPN tunnels in the screenshot here worked. Perhaps OpemVPN have upgraded their termination points, but either way this is both good and worrying news. On the plus side, there's no need for me to consider an alternative (nonsense chameleon marketing aside), and the speed is just as good as I've experienced when at home. On the down side, I'm convinced they are monitoring in order to create more filtering policies to block VPNs by allowing them to run more freely. I hope the cynic in me is wrong.

Hello all, I am not an IT expert at all and honestly I'm confused in terminology related to vpns. I live in Germany and soon moving to China. I would like to take with me a router and get a good VPN and hopefully setup the routeur There to have it always connected to this vpn. I don't know the names or terminology about what to do to reach this result. 1) does most of recent routers can do that ? (Asus for example ?). Maybe I need to upload a file to the router from the VPN supplier. 2) which vpn could work ? Airvpn? Cyberghost? Torguard ? I plan to do all the setup here in Germany before leaving cause all is so much more complicated in China (tell me about getting an Android phone there during my last trip and get the google play store to work, was horrible !). If any of you know a combination router + VPN with a good tutorial how to set it up.. I'd be very appreciative!! Thanks in advance !

I am planning a two to three month visit to China. I am interested in hearing any recent reports about using airvpn in China. Are there any difficulties, any suggestions, any advice? If anyone knows something that I should know, please let me know! If you know what I mean.

Hi there, Currently, i am living in China now. I have been using airvpn for about one month. Everthing works perfectly except Asian-TCP-443. But today , just now, im facing connection issue on all servers including America, Europe and Asian(both TCP and UDP ports). Therefore i have to use my backup vpn to get access to this site. Any help to solve this problem would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, I'm unable to resolve chinese domains via the airvpn internal DNS server and also unable to connect to websites hosted in China. For example: no resolve: baidu.com qq.com 360totalsecurity.com no connection: alipay.com 360.cn tmall.com This is only a small list, I have the feeling that it affects almost every chinese hosted website / domain. I tested it on the Dutch and Swiss servers, both have the same results. Are AirVPN's ips blocked by the Great Firewall of China so that you cannot even connect to chinese websites? Is it possible for you guys to reroute chinese traffic via an internal server?

"airvpn.org" blocked (DNS poisoning) Solution: hosts file edit OpenVPN connections are frequently disrupted (reported in Shangai and Beijing) Solution: OpenVPN over SSL works just fine UNCONFIRMED: momentary blocks of Internet domestic lines if a high percentage of encrypted traffic is detected

Hello All, Do you have any suggestions for somewhat-reliable connection to AirVPN servers using iOS devices in China? I ask this because OpenVPN connections over land-based ISPs barely work here without an SSL tunnel. Connection to servers using SSL tunneling through Eddie works great... but that's only for Linux/MacOS/Windows. Here are the ideas I have so far; can you please add if you have any suggestions? 1. Connections over cell service are much more reliable than land-based ISPs. The downside here is that I have to use my data plan, and doesn't work with my Wifi-only iPad. 2. I could hardwire a laptop to my router then try to share my connection through wifi with my iOS devices once the SSL tunnel is established. Has anyone tried this? This of course would only work when I'm at home. That's all I can think of. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi, Is there any development going on to enable SSH or SSL tunnels on Android to avoid DPI in China? Some other providers already have this service on Android. Thanks,

One user descriped a way how to bypass the great firewall in china: https://airvpn.org/topic/11134-ssh-or-ssl-tunnel-on-android/?p=21319 Why isn't android supported officially? If the devs decide to support this I will make an video which would explain this feature and how to install it.

I know that it is easy to use airvpn from china with an ssl tunnel works fine with Eddie. But there is still one problem: Lets say you are in wuhan, the next available server is Hongkong. The distance is very far, wouldn't it be possible to get nearer server locations in this reigion (japan / south korea / taiwan)?

Hi all, Torvpn is able to make stealth profiles for android that work in China. Any possibility to have this for Airvpn? See examples below for both TCP and UDP for one of their servers in the Netherlands client dev tun proto tcp nobind remote-random remote 89.248.172.172 443 ca ca.crt auth-user-pass remote-cert-tls server cipher AES-256-CBC resolv-retry 5 tun-mtu 1500 tun-mtu-extra 32 mssfix 1450 route-delay 5 30 ping-restart 0 persist-key persist-tun comp-lzo mute-replay-warnings client dev tun proto udp nobind remote-random remote 89.248.172.172 53 ca ca.crt auth-user-pass remote-cert-tls server cipher AES-256-CBC resolv-retry 5 tun-mtu 1500 tun-mtu-extra 32 mssfix 1450 route-delay 5 30 ping-restart 0 persist-key persist-tun comp-lzo mute-replay-warnings fast-io

Hello, I bought AirVPN to mainly use it in China and well... it doesn't work :/ I'm gonna travel for 6 months in China and i'm currently in Guilin (south of China).

Any one else working on an SSH Tunnelled OpenVPN connection on DD-WRT? I have the SSH Tunnel standing up correctly and the OpenVPN connection connecting correctly. HOWEVER, no port 80 traffic. Only pings, traceroute, etc. Ideas? Suggestions? Once I have it working I will write up a how to. If you are in China you need this info!
