Re: Ubuntu Phone and Private Internet Access?

 

I have my OpenVPN connection working on my BQ Aquaris E4.5 OTA13.

I can use it both as a local connection (which only gets used for resources on my VNP network), or as a fully tunnelled connection, effectively hiding my traffic from whatever operator I'm connected to.

I have, altough, noticed that on some operators (eg. some hotel wifi connections) if I use the tunnel, the connection gets dropped almost immediately.

The issue you are experiencing, though seems to be a missing "secret". You can try to edit the file with your VPN connection name in the directory:

/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/


That should give you some more options to deal with.


Best,


Francisco
