I see you guys are currently supporting 3 cryptocurrency's, and i would love if nano can be supported.

This is not just a new scammy project either, it started in 2017, where anyone could "mine" tokens by solving captcha's in a browser. It allows for zero fees and zero waiting times until blocks are confirmed, ideal for paying for a service such as mullvad.

You can also check that i didn't spam this request to random other vpn providers, i only like mullvad, already tested like 10 before i sticked around here. Good price for good service and i like that you actually care for privacy and development- with the servers that run just on ram for example.

Not really complaining, just sharing... I know the walls are closing in on (semi-) private web browsing.

I've noticed a lot of Mullvad IPs blocked in the last week or two, for old.reddit (won't allow login, states credentials are invalid) and DailyMail (won't load page).

edit: also MSN news, WSJ news... I either have to raw dog the internet, or go without. Ah well, life on the margins, here I come.

There's many things on my phone that I can't use VPN with but there's this one app I want VPN on all the time. I really wish I could just have it set to that one app so I don't have to keep going to the settings Everytime I download a new app.

I'm using android btw

Me and my friends are sharing a subscrition, previously with windscribe, and that uses like a stealth protocal, is there a way we can do that for mullvad? Thanks.

Edit: Got it too "connect", says this

Windows 11 has a feature called Smartapp control which verifies the signatures of various software that you install on the computer prior to installing it. Mullvad gets blocked. Has anyone else had this issue before?

This is basically what smart app does: Smart App Control knows that what you're using is safe but isn't able to make a confident prediction about the safety of the other file your app opened so it attempted to verify the publisher of that file by checking its signature. The file isn’t properly signed so Smart App Control has blocked it.

I've already updated btw, you don't need to tell me to - but I'm wondering:

What does it actually mean for the version to be unsupported? Does this mean it will no longer work or there may be potential bugs or idk what else

It seemed to be working fine for me before I noticed it

I'm using UK servers and am based in the UK. It is frequently disconnection for an instance and then reconnecting almost straight away automatically - it's doing this numerous times every few minutes it seems.

This is listed in the changes for 2024.5:

Added

  • Add DAITA (Defence against AI-guided Traffic Analysis) setting for Linux and macOS.
  • Add --json flag to mullvad status CLI.

Does this mean it's an option the user has to enable via the CLI, or is it saying it is enabled by default? Does anyone know the terminal command to check one way or the other?

If I have to add it (not a Linux affianado, sorry) would the command be:

mullvad status --json

?? Thanks for any guidance!

Like don't get me wrong, this is great, but I'm kind of worried. Before it took around 3 or 4 seconds for the tunnel to connect (makes sense tbh), but now it's suddenly sub-second. Anyone else experiencing this?

I must preface this post by saying I don't know a lot about VPN's and how they work but was hoping someone could explain to me why when I connect to the Mullvad South African server, I get given an IP address in the 154.47.30.0/24 range which is confirmed by visiting https://browserleaks.com/ip and https://whatismyipaddress.com/

Checking the DNS server used via https://dnsleaktest.com/ and https://browserleaks.com/dns, it shows that Mullvad's 154.47.30.143 server is being used. This is listed as one of Mullvad's in this list https://whoisyourvpn.com/servers/mullvad/

Why then, when I go to the proxycheck website does it report the address as belonging to PIA (PrivateInternetAccess)? Link: https://proxycheck.io/v2/154.47.30.143?vpn=1&asn=1

That it only say it is faster in the website description. that personally i prefer safety over speed. Plus i got like 1000mb internet.

that i just want to know that will it is safer to use max protection. or it is will as safer or worse.

that it is will as safe using both together but slower i would keep it.

That beucase i always forget to turn on my VPN

Thanks

Edit 2

Ok i look at DNS leak make me realize i shoudl turn on right. Tell me if i am wrong thansk.

If I pay my isp $10/mo to remove CGNAT and use Mullvad or similar for p2p, game server, etc., does Mullvad block the ports you have open on the router/os?

i recently made parrot the OS of a shity laptop i plan on using and was wanting to put Mullvad on it. And saw a post about 9 months back saying it wasn't working and that seems to be the only thing i can find about Mullvad and Parrot. (I'm new to this stuff so i might be over my head) any input would be helpful.

So heres my situation, i have a B550 Aorus Elite rev 1.3 that suddenly stopped working the realtek 2.5Gbps network adapter, forcing me to use a usb wifi adapter. With my 300mbps fiber i used to get around 200mpbs on the adapter so i thought hey, let me get a usb to Rj45 gigabit adapter, that should do it right? and it did.

However, when trying to use mullvad VPN on any server at all, it never goes above 10-12mpbs.

I know that this isnt a mullvad issue at all (my GF's pc works just fine on her b450 Asus Prime with integrated adapter), its just my PC. I also did went through the rabbit hole of the B550's from gigabyte that has this issue and got no luck at all (wich is why i ended up buying the adapter).

Any ideas what i can try to do to fix this? or the only solution would be a pcie network adapter? cause if so, my gpu is 3 slot wide and its covering all of the remaining pcie's :(

I checked the logs of my WIFI router while looking for why my network may be slow. And I found that every 5 minutes to 2 hours, I get an error that my Deco WIFI blocked an attempted connection to ipv4.am.i.mullvad.net. With Classification: Proxy Avoidance.

The thing is, I don't use Mullvad on my Mac and I'm 99% sure I never have.

So it appears my computer is trying to connect to this website behind the scenes, but I don't know why.

There is a bug when the split tunneling is on, any app on exclusion list still passes through vpn.

Another issue is about the disk access... Mullvad can't have it's toggle on in settings.

Is there a way to make an exclusion app works?

Seems to have started today, but I’m suddenly getting ads again with the VPN on. Anyone else have this issue or a solution for it?

Does connecting to the router bypass by some sort the 5 device limit or do I still can connect the now vpn router to only the limited number And if I connect it to my router can I edit which devices use the vpn installation and which just use the Internet normally?

The website says it's in "Advanced > VPN settings >  WireGuard settings > Enable multihop", but my android app in a 2024 version doesn't show any "Advanced" option, or at least I can't find it.

Extra question: can I set up my own self-hosted wireguard/openvpn server as the exit node? If not does anyone know any VPN server with an app that allows it?

Thanks!
