I have two WireGuard peers set up and communicating as expected. This is for remote access to my homelab.

On one of the peers, I run the Mullvad VPN client for general day-to-day usage. When Mullvad is enabled, I can still access my homelab remotely via WireGuard, however, this traffic now goes through the Mullvad VPN tunnel, which slows down the speed significantly.

How would I allow the traffic destined for my WireGuard peer to bypass MullvadVPN? I have set up custom routes (to the public IP of my homelab as well as the WireGuard IP), but it does not appear to do anything.

Hello, before using Mullvad VPN, I was using the NetGuard app, which can block internet access for specific apps on Android by creating a VPN to localhost. However, when I use Mullvad VPN, this is no longer possible. Is there a way to block internet access for apps on Android while staying connected to Mullvad VPN?

I’d like more granular control of Mullvad so I want to download the config and run it with my existing WireGuard infrastructure. If I do this, I know that I lose the ability to easily have a kill switch, since MacOS makes this difficult and Mullvad client abstracts this away.

What other functionality is lost by not using the Mullvad client, besides the obvious convenience of a UI?

Which server do you all use that works with Imgur? Is wireguard or OpenVPN better to use? I'm currently on an OpenVPN server in NYC and constantly get "Imgur is temporarily over capacity. Please try again later." As soon as I disconnect Mullvad it works fine.

My bank (Bank of America) no longer connects with the VPN up. I set up split tunneling via Safari (I typically use Firefox or Arc or Vivaldi)--but I can only connect to B of A if I *disconnect* from the VPN (true of all the browsers).

MacOS Sequoia 15.2, M4

I'd like to use it to set different proxies for different websites, e.g. for Youtube and Reddit that have recently started to block VPN users unless they log in.

But if I install the Mullvad extension in Firefox it doesn't seem to be able to "connect" to the Mullvad app. Is it not possible on Android?

Does Mullvad’s VPN decrease the chances of successfully logging into big sites like instagram, gmail & so on ? I mean like when connected

Hey! I'm about to head to China, and am planning to use Mullvad. I just wanted to know if it still works, and if there is anything I couldn't do. I see some people are having problems with accessing google services, which I need to do work so any insight would be great.

I seriously do not believe most post keyword “most”about connection issues, sometimes it’s your own internet because trust me I know been through those.

Even other servers are better than most but complaining won’t fix much it’s just how life is something’s are better than others and that’s true so appreciate the VPN for what it is. Multi-hop is obviously going to slow you down to a degree, and don’t get me started on DAITA.

Enjoy it tho $5.99 a month at your own dispense is really worth it can’t beat it.🫰🏽

Looks like a total block. Sites won't load. Tried multiple entry points. Mullvad is getting far worse.

The issue has been increasing lately but I got around it for some time by switching servers. today I tried all available servers in 5 different countries/cities and still no luck. I was surprised to not see any previous posts about the issue here. Am I doing something wrong or have people just accepted that YouTube is out of reach behind Mullvad? captchas are annoying but atleast they can be solved, YouTube just straight up blocks me.

Edit: thx for the tips from everyone who answered genuinely. I'm going to try the servers some of you recommended! Other than that it seems this is just the reality of using a VPN today. I'll give up YouTube before I give up my privacy though.

Who else experience a DL speed at 3-5 Mbps when doing Multihop. Past days i felt that my network at home had some issues. But today I made a speedtest and it showed ridiculous DL speeds while upload was at 150-200 Mbps.

When I connect without Multihop I get usual speeds like what is possible with my ISP.

I currently use the wireguard config but it's a hassle to edit the config file everytime I wanna change something. So I tried using the unofficial App. It connects smoothly for the first 10 minutes and stops working. Like zero internet access after that. Anybody facing this same issue?

Hi

I just download this VPN on my iPhone and every 10min I have to reconnect the VPN because it’s unsecured connection.

It’s really annoying , what’s the problem with this VPN ?

i really like nextdns and mullvad as well, i use both of them together on one android device and one windows device. Now im trying to get both of them to work together in linux but my dns keeps leaking.

For example if I use facebook, amazon, reddit apps on iogone I can tell I am still being tracked. Does this mean that there are trackers that aren't being blocked by mullvad dns and I need to add custom ones?

Hello guys. I need help split tunnelling Marvel Rivals. I've selected every .exe file in the game files but whenever I enable Mullvad, game still connects to the vpn. Am I doing something wrong?

I was on gb-lon-wg-304 because YouTube works on this server, but for some reason it's started blocking porn sites. When I change to another server, these sites are available

Hey all. I've been using a year old version of Mullvad because I was having an issue where the new update would just get stuck on Connecting... and never actually connect. Clicking disconnect would also cause it to hang. This resulted in me having no internet connection until I restart my computer.

Today I decided I would try an update to see if it was fixed. It however, has not been and I still get the issue in the newest version. I unfortunately forgot to check what version I had that was working. As before I just downgraded to it and it resumed working fine.

Does anyone know how I can fix this issue? It does seem strange that it works fine on an old version but the issue still persists after a year of updates.

Hi, not sure if this has been discussed before, I’m wondering if it’s possible to make Mullvad “always active” on IOS?

Hello everyone, I've been using Mullvad for about a year now and so far every single application or game that I've split-tunneled has worked just fine, however this is not the case with PoE2.

I've bought early access to the game recently off of Steam and noticed that the split tunneling was not working, and no matter which executable I add (Steam or just the game's own), it will simply not work. Steam itself is being split tunneled just fine, as the browser in the overlay shows, but the game itself will still connect through the VPN and choose a server close to whichever region I set it to.

So far the only solution has been to stop the VPN completely. Is there any way to fix this?
