Is my Comodo setup okay?

[Xpcn13 1]

Hi,

 

I am new to AirVPN and VPN in general. I tried the service and so far it is working flawlessly.

However, I am not sure about my firewall settings. I set everything up like the guide on this forum, and other guides, suggested, so it "should" be okay.

But to be sure I post my settings here for you to have a look at. I really don't want any leaks.

 

My firewall settings are in the attached file.

 

 

 

In addition to that, I have a few questions:

 

- When I clean the Application rules, apps ask me for my permission to connect. If I deny it, the app stays blocked until I delete it from the rules.

How do those Application rules apply and what if I set them to "allow any"? Obviously then everything works, and Ipleak, DNSleak and so on show no leaks. But I am not sure if I can trust them.

 

- How safe is torrenting on NL servers, since uploading now is illigal there, too? And what about swiss? At least there they are not allowed to track IPs, if I'm not mistaken.

 

- I know AirVPN says they don't log, but what about the data centers? Like it happened with EarthVPN.

 

- If I am connected with one machine, which has no leaks, can accessing the internet from the same or another machine (with and without active VPN) cause leaks?

It is the same internet connection after all... maybe someone "pings" me or whatever and my safe machine blocks everything like it should, but then my other machine which is surfing the web leaks.

 

 

 

I think that's it for now. I'm sure I will have more questions

Can nobody help me?

 

Something has to be wrong with my settings. With the firewall enabled my internet times out and I can't get websites to load. I don't know what is wrong

 

//EDIT:

I just disabled comodo alltogether and enabled AirVPN's network lock. Seems to do the same thing?!

Basically, what I want to achieve is to only access the internet when VPN is active, otherwise kill all incoming and outgoing traffic.

 

What I'm not sure about is the bit torrent client. After I enabled network lock I started it and windows firewall asked me if I want to allow it. I clicked on "block" and a incoming block rule got created for UDP and TCP. However, the client works. Downloads and uploads are not blocked. how is that?

 

After I disconencted the VPN on purpose the active torrent was still running and I still had people connected to me for a few seconds.

Is this normal or is it a leak? Are those the packets which are still "on their way", through the cable, if you will? Or does the torrent temporarily use the unencrypted internet connection after the VPN is dropped, for those few seconds, until the firewall rule kicks in?

If network lock is on, there should be no leaks.

 

Have a look here https://airvpn.org/faq/software_lock/  for more info.

 

Also look here https://ipleak.net/ You can test if your torrent client is 'leaking' by using the torrent address detection option.
