OpenVPN Client Issue with VPN.S (VPNSecure.me) after upgrading 2.6 -> 2.7

I did find out that they not use dns anymore but hard ip adres. I did regenerate a new config zip file and then you get a email with the config files and then you see it uses ip adres and not dns.

@heuvep well that would explain the problem - so nice of them to let their users know ;)
So you should update your config on pfsense to use IP vs fqdn (that doesn't resolve) and you should be good to go then.
-
Thats correct, if you login with your account ont there portal and generate a new config for your self it uses ip adres instead of fqdn. it will be update in the back in the app but they have not communicate at all. Yesterday i did receive a mail and that triggert me. I will test today to see if it works.
So if you do not use the app you need the new ip adresses and hope they do no change all the time! -
Yes it works now. So you need to use the ipadres.

@heuvep & all
Hi guys !
Thanx for this tip / generation of new config
I tested with success with remote 212.83.133.203 1281 => I have connexion, but a very bad rate ... :-(Of course, I asked a new config server, but I just receive .. nothing !
So, can we share a list of IP adresses please ? Besides 212.83.133.203, do we know another IP adresses ?
Can we also share location for each IP ?Have a nice day !
Regards
W.

When you login the portal you can generate the config file your self. You then get a zip file with lot of ovpn files from diffrent country's. You can find the ipadres in that file

usa -> 216.105.168.250

I did receive a anwser from helpdesk :
========= RESPOND ABOVE THIS LINE =========
Yes this is normal, DNS is not working at the moment.
Please go there:

And click "Generate Server Configs", you'll receive them by email.

What can not be routed where?
-
no traffic inside VPN.S OpenVPN tunnel whereas flux should be OK (no change in menu Firewall / Rules / LAN )
I think I missed something in my VPN.S client configuration (menu services / VPN / openvpn / client) ; I look for what, so my question ...
-

Not helping to be honest, its more like you just had a stroke or something.. "whereas flux should be OK " ???
I think I missed something in my VPN.S client configuration
How would you have missed something.. If all you did was upgrade there wouldn't be any changes, etc..
-
I try to check each param
client
proto udp => field protocol
dev tun => field device mode
ca ca.crt => field ...
dh dh2048.pem => field ...
cert m_nge.crt => field ...
key m_nge.key => field client certificate
remote 151.80.148.150 1281 => fields server host + server port
cipher AES-128-CBC => field data encryption algorithms
verb 2 => field ...
mute 20 => field ...
keepalive 3 10 => field ...
comp-lzo => field ...
persist-key => field ...
persist-tun => field ...
float => field ...
resolv-retry infinite => field ...
nobind => field ...
auth-nocache => field ...
remote-cert-tls server => field ...a screenshot or precisions would be appreciate to be sure ...

You said you connected, none of those settings would have anything to do with "routing" or not routing.. If you wan some clients to use your vpn connection, that would be setup via a policy route in your firewall rules.
If you want all of your traffic to go out this vpn that could also be set in your gateways and what is set as default..

Perhaps, but not sure ... I really appreciate to have a verif for each field ... only because I didn't change anything in my firewall rules ...
However, I never said I want some client to use my vpn connection
If you really want to help me, please check with me each field in the conf ...If you want all of your traffic to go out this vpn that could also be set in your gateways and what is set as default..
That's no either the subject ... but thx !

which has nothing to do with "routing" which was your question.. Glad you got it sorted!

you're right ; however, if your compression param is not OK, there's no traffic in the OpenVPN tunnel ... and no byte sent / received in Status / openVPN menu ...
Symptoms are the same as routing issue ... which was my interrogation ...Have a nice end of day !
