Hello I wanted to draw other members to a seemingly inconsistent response from one www site in communicating with different Airvpn servers. A studnt who uses Airvpn (and I have confirmed this) discovered that some web sites, when connected through some Airvpn servers returns a <<Server not found>> or a <<DNS server could not be found>> error. Yes, when a different Airvpn server is selected, the site connects with no issues. The site is ctc.usma.edu. Two browsers were used: firefox and opera. Both are the latest versions. And various blockers etc were all turned off. O/S is Debian Jessie. It seems not to be a dreaded 5-eyes thing - the UK servers did not work. But one Swiss server did and another did not. I was wondering if any other reader have encountered this, and also if any folks have an explanation. Thanks heaps for your time and for reading. Here are the results: Airvpn - Sweden Firefox - no Opera - no When using the "VPN" built into opera (yes, I know it is not a real vpn), and selecting a US server: Opera/VPN US - Yes Opera/VPN CAN - yes As an aside, when the opera exit was in the US, ipleak.net revealed 68 DNS servers! Netherlands Firefox - no Opera - no UK - Nashira Firefox - no Opera - no US - Sabik Firefox - Yes Opera - Yes US - Pavanos Firefox - Yes Opera - Yes Switzerland - Virginis Firefox - Yes Opera - Yes Katalpha Firefox - no Opera - no
