  • mitchy1690 - that old Zgemma might not have the juice to deal with the OpenVPN encrytion. However, H7 and H9 series do!


    Jw2000uk - one must have all the parts (keys and credentials) included, as I wrote earlier, so one must deal with auth, cert and .ovpn files properly!


    All the files do NOT have to be in the same folder, if you do things properly.... Put it to NO!

    Default DNS, as I demonstrated: 1.1.1.1


    Surfshark has both keys in .ovpn file, other providers do not, as far as I can tell. So, in that folder, it seems to me, one must have to have at least another file, which contains the other key.


    Whereas your login details (username and password) go to plugin.py file, as I described....

  • I have installed VPN Manager on my Zgemma H9S with the help of the information in this thread and all appears to be working correctly. When I run IP Checker plugin, it shows a local IP address beginning with 10 and an external IP address which is the same as that shown in VPN Manager. However, when I go into Information, Network in the openvix menu. the IP address shown is still the one assigned by the router. Is that normal? Thanks.

  • For NordVPN there is another option: nordvpnmanager - see in Plugins > Extensions....


    But you need to deal with all the files properly - auth, cert...

  • Here, just in case you missed it....

  • Thanks for the replies. Just wanted to be sure that everything was working as it should. gorski, it was your guide which I used to set it up. Thanks. The only problem I encountered was that I couldn't get v 1.1.14 to work. I randomly tried v 1.0.8 instead, and it worked. No idea why.

  • You probably missed something in settings.... try again but carefully... ;)

  • Hi All,

    Bit lost on this one


    Let me explain.


    I have Nord VPN, and i have installed VPN manager on OpenATV. I have created a directory called /media/hdd/OpenVPN/London and inside i have placed 2 files


    1. The conf file that i downloaded from Nord VPN, renamed it client.conf and added the line "auth-user-pass password.conf" to it.

    2. Created a password.conf in which i have included, seperated by another line my email address and password i use to login to NordVPN


    3dbbd93fe2ced43a7272cc.png

    Still cant seem to connect to the VPN


    Any feedback most welcome - thanks !

  • You can put the login details in the VPN Manager itself, as I explained...


    You need the other 2 files, I presume (I do not have Nord)...

  • It's not difficult in principle: one needs two files which contain the keys.


    That's what he hasn't done, I presume...

  • Read, I wrote it all in detail: Surfshark has both keys in ovpn file, unlike other VPN providers I tested a while back....


    But OK....

  • With vpn manager you don't need to edit files or create password.conf. So download Nord configs from here


    Code
    https://downloads.nordcdn.com/configs/archives/servers/ovpn.zip


    Transfer all or select few files to HDD/OpenVPN folder no need for a sub directory.


    In VPN manager press menu and make sure you set all configs in one location yes then add username and password via gui or editing plugin.py


    You should then be able to choose a country.


    Same method applies for surfsharkvpn

  • at this stage i am not sure is it the ISP router.


    What should the Default DNS be?
