VPN Newbie Just installed Eddie on 2 Windows 7 Pro systems. One on cable in the city, one on a rural ASDL connection. System in the city is humming fine. Ping times typically under 70 ms. System in the boonies, not so much. BW seems ok, but not latency. Ping above 1500 ms with Eddie on. Under 70 with it off. My understanding is that this rural ISP does not support IPv6, but a geek told me that does not matter as AirVPN uses IPv4 for tunneling. Am I missing some setting option(s) to optimize Eddie with my rural system?

i thought i had this issue figured out and was closed https://airvpn.org/topic/16427-high-latency-lost-connection-durring-hourly-tls-rekeying/?do=findComment&comment=35775 But, i have not had any issue for the last 7 month and have happily forgot the problems i had. But suddenly is it a issue again. I am loosing connection every hour during the TLS-rekeying where there is a drop in my connection for up to 6-10sec. I thought i was a issue with my router RT-ac66u with lack of CPU power. But the last 7-8 month hasnt there been any problems. So i can only conclude it isnt a client issue?! i have attached my log file during the TLS rekeying. see the timestamps 21.26.10 - 21.26.16 the 6 sec difference is a drop in connection.

Hi experts, i have a issue i wish to get enlightened a bit. Every time openvpn does a TLS rekeying once a hour. Do I lose connection for 5-6 sek, can you guys explane to me why this happens and what i can do to avoid this?? The system is a dual core 1300Mhz running linux those specs shouldnt be a problem.. I have add the logfile for the rekeying process.
