Mullvad VPN

Hi

Before I start, I know that Minecraft Java edition has been marked as unsupported, however the issue could be something else.

So my friend started hosting a Minecraft server for our group to play on. He uses Radmin to allow us to connect. I am however unable to connect to the server without disabling my VPN completely. I've tried split tunneling CurseForge, Radmin and all the processes that Minecraft has running, but no matter what I do, it still keeps giving me the following:

"Failed to log in: The authentication servers are currently not reachable, Please try again."

And on his side, the following:

"com.mojang.authlib.GameProfile@2c815565[id=,name=MinecraftUsername,properties={},legacy=false] (/My_Radmin_VPN_Address) lost connection: Disconnected"

This seems to only happen to this server specifically. If I try to connect to any other public server, there are no issues

Did something happen? Hong Kong 302 used to be the best thing. Do settings need to be tweaked now? What happened? How are you setting this up to be reliable now in China?

Hi all. I have this weird problem where some apps (like Insta) do not load at all when the VPN is on and using mobile data, but when I connect to wifi it works just fine. Anyone encountered this before? iPhone, iOS 18.

Repost from a couple days ago with some additional info.

I got a new M3 Macbook and added it as a device and all browsers work for about 5 minutes after installing the Mullvad app and connecting to a server and then every page stops loading. I've tried a bunch of servers, enabled IPv6 and tried WireGuard and OpenVPN settings, uninstalled and reinstalled the app and Firefox multiple times, and tried using a Mullvad config in the WireGuard app, and nothing is working. New: I’ve tried servers in a lot of different countries and they’re also not working. Also, I have lockdown mode disabled but when I disconnect or disconnect and quit Mullvad, my browser still doesn’t connect until I uninstall Mullvad and restart my computer. But when I downloaded torrents while my browser was able to connect, they were still downloading in qbittorrent after the browser stopped working.

Because mullvad.net won’t load on my phone while on my wifi I am wondering if my ISP is blocking Mullvad but l've never had an issue before. I would love help, I don't know much about this at all and I'm just going off of other threads in this sub but all of them have had fixes that don't work for me. Thanks.

1. The Android app takes almost 10 seconds to connect to a server. It was instantaneous before the update. WIFI, data networks, they all take almost 10 seconds to connect.

2. The Mullvad site says I'm connected, but the three leak checks don't work. The 'Checking VPN' just sits there.

Does anyone else see these issues?

Hello,

for some reason, on the same wifi network, my router has a lot of trouble connecting to any server, while using an app just works flawlessly. Is it something I can do on the wireguard file that would make it work better ?

My network is like this : Router (internet) => Router (VPN) => Devices.

When connecting on the VPN router (without VPN activated), I can use the app on any device and it connects without any problem. But connecting the VPN on the router (with wireguard config files) is really hard.

If it can help, I'm in China.

Thank you for any answer.

I wanted to ask a question about Mullvad browser on Linux: the toolbar fonts are too small, is there a way to double their size? Thanks. [Sorry, this is not about the VPN, but I couldn't find anywhere else to ask]

Hope someone can help me here - I'm currently testing out Mullvad for a month as I hear mostly positive reviews from all people. I paid for a month and installed the android app without issues and was able to connect (app says so) - however I am unable to connect to any site. I tried to restart the app, my phone, changed server locations, to no avail.

In the meantime I also have ExpressVPN and have no issues whatsoever in using it. Can someone guide me on what I'm doing wrong here? I'm currently in Saudi Arabia if that matters.

Edited spelling mistakes - I'm on mobile

Hello everyone I am running an unraid server and I wanted to set up some arr apps, but I am having issues adding my socks5 proxy to prowlarr but idk how to or what information to add, I hope someone in here can help me with this. I already did this to my qBittorrent: https://web.archive.org/web/20210225015058/https://mullvad.net/en/help/bittorrent/ (note: I am not the best or smartest when it comes to networking and all the things involved with it)

For some reason I can't get Mullvad to work with Avast, even while I had added a firewall rule to it.

The only setting that will work is OpenVPN, but not Wireguard (which is what I preferred).

Anybody else have trouble with this and found a workaround to this problem?

I even suspended Avast (picking the 10 min delay), it worked for the first time, but after that, it doesn't work like that anymore.

Pretty frustrating to say the least.

I've been using mullvad for over a year now, recently most UK servers have given me problems. On startup I get either slow dialup speeds of loading websites, or constant timeouts and I have to keep cycling through glasgow, manchester and london servers until I find one that works normally.

VPN usually connects through wireguard, though openvpn doesn't make much of a difference either. I have a 1gbps FTTP ethernet connection, my ISP does not throttle my connection. Everything loads instantly with mullvad disconnected.

2 new Cyprus servers from provider "HostRoyale" (Rented - 10 Gbps) hosted in Nicosia have been added to the Wireguard list.

Just updated my MacOS to Sequoia and I noticed the messenger doesn't work with Mulvad v 2024.5, is this just me or a known problem?

Why can comcast tell what site I want to go to when using Mulvad? Catbox.moe shows up as blocked in the xfinity app everytime I try to connect via my wifi connection with Mulvad on. It works fine when I use mobile data instead, so theres no other factors blocking it. I thought by using Mulvad the isp wouldnt know what sites im going to?

Hello, I want to share my experience so that you don’t make the same mistake and have to deal with the same issue. If you purchase Mullvad through the App Store (iOS), make sure to backup your account number, because if for any reason you erase or change your phone, you will lose your account (I’m not sure if uninstalling and reinstalling the app has the same effect, but it just happened to me).

A week ago, I purchased a subscription through the App Store, erased my iPhone while updating it, and now I can’t recover my account. When contacting Mullvad support, they told me to reach out to Apple for a refund, but Apple says it’s a non-refundable purchase. Then Mullvad says there’s no way to recover it, as they don’t have any information to help me with this (which is strange, but if true, I see it as a good thing for privacy reasons).

Ultimately, I believe the best option is to purchase through the website, as they do provide support in case you lose your account number.

Just updated my phone to the latest software version and now I can’t connect to any server (anywhere).

Anyone else experiencing this? Any fix on the way?

Edit:

• Based in the US. No issues about censorship.
• Turned off Quantum tunnel: Doesn’t work.
• I turned off private network and it still won’t connect.
• I deleted the wireguard profile under VPN settings and still won’t connect.
• Turned my phone on/off still doesn’t work.
• I’ll try to delete the app and download again and see if that works.

Update:

I deleted the app and deleted the Mullvad VPN profile under VPN and device management, reinstalled everything and it works.

Hey folks. I’m new to Mullvad. Just signed up for one month to give it a go.

I am unable to access certain sites since they recognize the IP address when using Mullvad. I want to be able to access these sites and I thought that using the IP override would help with that. I contacted support and they provided me with a json file. I am still unable to access said sites. Am I wrong in thinking that IP override will help me access sites that don’t like VPNs?

I’m relatively new to this type of stuff. Please be gentle and ELI5.

Thanks!

I don't care where my VPN sets me up, I just want to make sure I'm going to have a solid connection. I notice from the website it charges in Euros which through me off for a second. Currently using NordVPN and looking for a cheaper monthly alternative.

My router doesn't support DoH ip addresses like the ones listed on the mullvad dns setup guide. I need the TLS ip addresses to use mullvad on my router. Anyone can share those?

The original post: /r/mullvadvpn by /u/Wise-Carry8315 on 2024-09-18 11:11:12.

Woke up, Wireguard not working anymore (on Linux using config files). Went to Mullvad Dashboard, all devices gone.

I added devices again via API, gone again after 30 minutes.

What the hell is happening?

I see there are other posts on getting a firestick to work with Mullvad VPN most of them are old posts And I wanted to get some more up to date info.

So how can I run Mullvad VPN on a Firestick

I’ve updated my iPhone to iOS18. Since then, I can’t connect to any server via the Mullvad VPN app. None of them work under no settings. Before it worked flawlessly. Anyone experiencing anything similar?

Moreover, my phone now always prioritizes mobile data over an established WiFi connection, which it obviously prioritized prior to updating to iOS18. Now, except using airplane mode, my iPhone 15PM just always uses the mobile data connection.

Anyone seen something like that? Any suggestions for fixes? I tried logging out of Mullvad VPN, closing the app, deleting the VPN setting’s, deleting the device from the laptop. Then logging back in, establishing new settings, using the phone as a new device with a new name for Mullvad. Didn’t work. Turning off and back on of the phone also didn’t work. No update for Mullvad available. Would be happy for any and every suggestion. Sucks cause I’m in China and am relying on the VPN connection.
