Yeah, looks like it might be time to move on. Shame because I was getting PIA for $40/year for several years now.
Probably going with Mullvad when my PIA is up in March.
estions was to speak about their hardware, but tell me it is difficult to predict due to many variables, and sending me a free three day trial account for my testing purposes.
I hope to have enough time to do some testing tonight, and will report back.
Hmm. I was down for a while. I ahve a temporarily working state right now with Mullvad, but not all is well.
I followed their pfsense guide. Despite entering my location as USA - New York, my exit point appears to be in Sweden, which is slowing things down considerably.
There is also something wacky going on with my DNS making many/most sites unreachable.
These things are unlikely to be issues for most people who likely just use the client on their local machines, but running it on my router is a tiny bit more complicated.
I will continue to troubleshoot and report back.
As for my DNS issues, it turns out that once changing to mullvad, the DNS forwarder in my router stopped working. Everything workes well over DHCP, but for manually set IP addresses, I have the habit of just using the gateway IP as the DNS server, and letting the router take care of it. That broke for some reason. Temporarily I have manually set the DNS, but I am trying to figure out why this happens. It's probably an "I screwed up my pfSense settings", not a Mullvad issue.
Yeah, so, I can't figure out why pointing to my gateway doesn't work for DNS anymore...
Again, probably not mullvads fault, but still a major pain in the ass.
It seems to work fine on all devices which use DHCP, but everything that has an IP address manually set and points to the gateway for DNS gets no DNS after the change.
I need to either fix this, or go around and manually change the DNS on all of my servers :/
I used PIA. Once they sorted out their software (about a year ago) it was fantastic.What? NordVPN had a major security breach AND MORE IMPORTANTLY did not reveal it to affected users for a long, long time. Not to mention of course that the name itself is very nearly something of a life - "Nord" VPN is based in Panama.
You're much better off with Mullvad , CryptoStorm, ProtonVPN and a few others. Be wary everyone , like with Kape, lots of VPNs are being absorbed by companies with sketchy backgrounds and in some cases significant connections to intelligence services.
Unfortunately, I switched to NordVPN.
Yeah, the same blanket statement. I got one too.PIA sent me a lengthy email after I cancelled and said it was because of this. This must really be hurting them, for good reason.
