Enigma2 OpenVPN Guides and scripts

I think it still needs to replace spaces with _ though

Do you mean spaces in the filenames of the contents of openvpn.zip ? because there are no spaces, only underscores.

I still get AUTH_FAILED errors while the pass.file in /etc/openvpn contains my correct username and password and also the username and password in VPNmanager. (X1234567 / password)

in the pass file username and password go into in seperate lines

Hello,

I flashed my Zgemmah7s with openatv 6.4. Only configured the tuner and static IPaddress with DNS 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1

Used the vpn generator : https://e2openvpn.com/OpenVPN_Generator/ entered my PIA username (X1234567) and password .

copied the wget script line in Zgemma terminal.

Changed VPNmanager setup to : all config in one folder to YES

and activated default DNS.

Then choose Netherlands and OK

After a few flashes of VPN logo : Login failed auth_failed.

I checked my username and password in the PIA app to use the socks5 proxy and then they connect.

Yes private internet access I think you need to generate username and password similar to surfshark

Ok cheers , Then the vpn config importer won't help.

username is the standard username which begins with a P. (P1234567) The PIA username for openvpn is the same but with an X (X1234567) and the password is generated.

I copied and pasted the username and password into the vpn generator. to prevent typo's.

@tommiedepommie now that vpn manager is installed just enter your usename and password manually into vpn manager also try other servers.

Username and password are showing correctly in VPN manager. The only thing i noticed is, when I 'cat' my old password file it shows two lines.

When I cat 'pass.file' the prompt is directly behind the password.

I have sent my credentials to test. Waiting for a result.

I also tried connecting my Zgemma to my phone's hotspot to exclude network errors, but, same result. auth_failed

***** RESULT ******

After a good night sleep, I did the following:

1) flashed Zgemma H7S with openatv 6.4 emmc

2) only set tuner config.

3) kept dhcp settings (using static lease)

4) installed vpnmanager using script file in terminal.

- replaced user with my standard PIA username (P1234567)

- replaced password with my standard PIA password matching above P-account

5) Box rebooted as programmed in script

6) Menu-> plugins->vpnmanager

- in VPNmanager ->menu->all config in one folder "YES"

- check PIA username & password

- Press "OK"

- select country to connect to

- press "OK"

- IPaddress in top right corner should change

7) Extra check,

- open terminal and connect to receiver

- copy "http://checkip.dyndns.org" and paste on prompt and press ENTER

I want to thank all who helped me with my troubles. I learned a lot from it.

It remains strange that when configuring VPN connections in the past, I had to use the X-username instead of the P-username.

But as always, results counts.

greetings Tom

Trying to install the latest VPN Manager v1.1.6 (Python 3) on openatv 7.0 through blue button/Plugins/IPK Installer but it shows as nothing installed. Decided to try Dream-Explorer but get the warning message as attached below. I thought as Python 3 should be ok so perhaps openatv 7. Anyone managed it or indeed got it working on openatv 6.5. I am using a vu+ solo 4k.

Openatv 7 uses a different version of python 3 to ATV 6.5 so the plugin may need updating

thanks, will try it on openatv 6.5. Just to say on openatv 6.4 I followed your guide to install for PIA and worked perfectly, so thanks again

Quote from dsayers

I haven't tried VPN manager on ATV 6.5 so I'm not sure if a specific version of the plugin is needed

[Plugin] VPN Manager

Just to advise that 1.1.6 of VPNmanager works perfectly on openatv 6.5. There is however a big but, any of the Internet Speed checkers on the feeds that work perfectly well without vpn manager installed all stop working with trace back errors. If I then uninstall the vpn manager plug-in the speed checkers still will not work and even if I try to uninstall and reinstall them no joy. This is really just for reference to you and anyone else who may be trying to use openatv 6.5 that it looks like you can have vpn manager 1.1.6 or a speed checker but not both.
