Hey community.

I was using Mullvad for a long time with following config:

[Interface]

Device: Hey
===========

PrivateKey = 123somethin=
Address = 10.74.19.206/32,fc00:bbbb:bbbb:bb01::b:13cd/128

DNS = 10.64.0.1
===============

[Peer]
PublicKey = 123aNsomethin=
AllowedIPs = 10.124.0.1/22
Endpoint = 185.204.1.203:51820

Set a mullvad proxy in browser or don't set it, you are good to go.

Now if I don't use mv proxy in browser it doesn't want to connect to internet. What is going on?

Mullvad just says that there's network issues when I clearly have a working connection, I don't have this issue on my PC with Mullvad

So, Youtube, Google, and other websites think I am in Russia when setting my location to Finland server 002. Why is that?

Every now and again my vpn just stops working and doesn’t connect at all to my WiFi . For example now I’m in Switzerland on the vpn but no matter which country I change it to it doesn’t connect and just gets stuck on “connecting” . I also tried my mobile data to see if my internet wasn’t working but even with that it won’t connect. Is there any fix for this?

Will this VPN work with those streaming services? What about socks5 ... can I generate a password and login to use it on softwares like uTorrent ? Ta

I was playing a Discord game and it showed a country flag beside your name based on your location. I'm connected to Spain but it displayed where I actually am. Im using Mullvad with DAITA and Multihop. DNS leak test showed Spain, so why did Discord show something else? How do I fix this?

I have two iPhones connected to Wi-Fi on my new Fritz!Box. I just went out to eat and when I came back, both devices connected to the internet, but as soon as I try to activate MV, it says "blocked connection."

I already restarted the modem, logged in and out, restarted the iPhones — Wi-Fi is working, and the diagnostics show no issues with the Wi-Fi. So it must be related to MV.

MV works fine on my MacBook using a LAN connection.

Does anyone know if Mullvad uses any virtual locations on its servers? I recently purchased a subscription and am very happy using this provider on Android. I would be satisfied if a permanent widget, similar to Windscribe's, showed connection status and upload/download traffic data in real time on the notification panel, and if a mock location option were added to the developer settings. I have an active Windscribe subscription (expiring at the end of 2027) and a two-year NYM VPN subscription, but the latter is currently unstable. I am looking to use Mullvad daily; its Android application has many good features—practically everything I look for in a VPN provider. Also, what are people's thoughts on decentralized VPNs like Deeper Network and NYM compared to centralized VPNs?

Hi to all Mullvad Browser users, I need help, I started using this browser because I want to be more aware of my data and privacy online, but I have a problem, so far I don't know how to use it to do common searches, below is a screenshot that appears ALWAYS when I want to search something as simple as “Kitchen items”, “Movies”, “Headphones”, “Food”, etc.

I can only enter certain web sites when I enter the URL of that site.

My monitor is small, and I have trouble reading, so any space is welcome.

Thanks!

So as the title says, is it possible to enable firefox sync in Mullvad browser? I understand that it is disabled for privacy reasons, but I am willing to compromise for sync. Is it possible to re-enable sync and have it work properly?

Simple question : does Mullvad VPN on iOS route WebRTC traffic in apps (and I don't mean the browsers) through the tunnel or are they routed directly? Specifically the STUN requests.

For instance can Whatsapp and ChatGPT apps leak your real IP address this way?

A family member wants an easy to block bad websites. I looked at Mullvad family DNS and it blocks a lot. I'm going to change their routers default DNS to Mullvad. Afterwards do I need to change the DNS settings within Windows? I'm under the impression since it's on the router level, every device connected will use Mullvads.

I noticed this when I split tunneled a secondary browser to access government related sites, I was simply unable to access the website and errors were about DNS. One example is dns probe finished nxdomain, another is dns probe possible. So what I did was simply enable the secure DNS in browser settings itself and select a DNS provider that is not system default, which fixed the issue. So if I split tunnel an app it shouldn't use mullvad DNS too, is there a solution to this? This was just a browser, but another app I want the same may not have a DNS option.

I’ve been trying to get Mullvad to work for over 6 hours and I have completely lost patience.

I’m on Windows 11 and Mullvad won’t connect to any server it just sits there trying and eventually fails. If I run Mullvad as administrator, it runs in the background (confirmed in Task Manager), but the GUI never appears

I have tried disabling my antivirus completely (via GUI and killing all background processes), reinstalling Mullvad multiple times, deleting leftover files and folders, using Task Scheduler to launch Mullvad with admin rights and GUI

none of these worked

All I want is for the VPN to actually connect. I paid for it and just want it to work.

I installed OpenWRT on an old Fritzbox 7360, wich has no WAN port. The Fritzbox is connected to a main router via LAN1, which provides the internet connection. The OpenWRT router has a static IP address and the main router acts as a gateway. I also have a Pihole as a DNS server on the first router. All DNS requests go through it, regardless of whether a DNS server is entered in OpenWRT or not.

I configured the Mullvad VPN service according to Mullvad's OpenWRT instructions on their website. In LuCi under Network > Interfaces I can see that MULLVAD_VPN has both TX and RX traffic. However, all internet traffic has no connection to Mullvad.

OpenWRT is new territory for me, does anyone have any advice?

As the title says, when I share my screen on Discord the quality is basically unusable. At first, I thought it was a driver issue, but after four days, disabling the VPN made it work perfectly again. Just to mention it in case it helps with my issue I'm using the latest version of Fedora

Hi,

I have a strange problem with Wireguard and Mullvad.

I have serveral clients on my network (Windows, MacOS, iOS, Linux), and most of them work fine without obfuscation enabled. Only my Linux-clients won't send packages unless I enable obfuscation (shadowsocks). They connect fine (the Mullvad-app says they're connected), but they're not sending any packages (no website works and "ping 8.8.8.8" reports 100% package loss). One system even dual-boots to Windows and Linux, and while it works in Windows, it does not work in Linux (one the same machine!).

The reason I want it to work without obfuscation is because I have an UNRAID-Server that does not support the official Mullvad-app and needs to use the normal Wireguard-client, which can't use obfuscation and therefore doesn't work.

I'm on a big ISP and I can't find any reports of VPN-blocking. All clients are directly connected to the ISPs router, nothing special. I tried toying with the MTU (1280), ports, endpoints and IPv4/v6 in the Mullvad-App to no avail. Only enabling obfuscation works.

Any ideas what else I could try? Thanks!

Original Title: I'm sure there's tons of posts like this and I already found some servers to be working, but I'm travelling to see my girlfriend in China and I was wondering, besides from some servers in New York and Washington and San Fransisco, what are some other servers you have found to work?

I'm gathering all the servers I can to see which ones work and which don't, she can test them for me as she is already in China and so far we have found some New York servers and Washington ones to work. San Fransisco had a server which worked but it was a bit finicky.

edit: if it helps at all, I'm travelling to Shanghai specifically!
