      @arubislander I have no idea why openvpn connection didn't work for me. But I have used the instruction you suggested to import wireguard configuration and it did work perfectly.
      That is all I needed. Thank you for your help!!!

        @jarop Wireguard works on Focal? that is great news. What command did you use exactly to get it to work?

            @jarop Take a look to https://forums.ubports.com/post/32296
            Files created from the OVPN must either be created on the terminal itself or transferred from the computer. But not sent, for example, by email, because they wouldn't work.
            Good luck.

              @arubislander I have used
              nmcli connection import type wireguard file "<path/to/file.ovpn>" and it did create connection. I have some difficulties with managing routing after connections are reset but I'm not stuck and this is work in progress. This isn't visible in GUI, only in terminal

                @arubislander I have no idea why, on my device it doesn't work. I follow tutorial, followed import command and result stays as it was. Do you know why password to vpn keeps disappearing maybe?

                  I am afraid not. It sounds like the bug some people have experienced where the WiFi password doesn't stick. That one was due to missing MAC address. But I cannot begin to guess what might be causing your issue.
                  Maybe the steps in the tutorial you followed messed something up, since they are for an older version of the OS.

                    @arubislander Current status is connectoins via wireguard are working for me but DNS does not. I have no idea how to make it work. Trying to connect by ip address works.

                      @jarop As wireguard is not a 'traditional' VPN, but more of a pair-to-pair protocol, it probably requires some extra network routing rules to get everything working. Unfortunately I haven't bitten that bullet yet myself to be able to offer much help there.

                          Seems impossible for me to make proton vpn work on the Volla focal (tested only on OTA-4) by installing a conf through the system parameters. Does this work for anyone? Worked well on Volla Xenial through vpn-editor.

                          Edit : i noticed that some TLS settings doen't seem saved and i opened https://gitlab.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/-/issues/2184

                            @naizena Hello. Can you confirm if proton vpn works or not with OTA-4 for you ? Thanks.

                              @domubpkm Yes, it works for me if I'm conected to wifi.
                              It doesn't work on data connection (It looks like it's connected because the connection indicator turns green and you don't get an error message, but it doesn't connect to the internet...)
                              But no problem on wifi connection.
                              Volla X. Focal 20.04 OTA-4. Protonvpn.

                                @naizena Yes, i confirm vpn works with wifi on OTA-4 too for me. Thanks for that. But before OTA-4, did it work with cellular data on focal ? Because, maybe i'm mistaken but i don't see in your posts that you said that it worked only with wifi.

                                  @domubpkm It doesn't work with cellular data since Focal update (it worked on Xenial). I thought it would be a problem with my phone company (I'm newbie)... but is not. I tested on an Android device and it works with the data connection. I posted this issue on 26 april 2023.

                                    @arubislander I have teste both ProtonVPN and nordVPN on Xenial (don't ask) ans Focal.

                                    • ProtonVPN (latest) doesn't work for me. I think i because of the cyphering AES-256-GCM which is ΒΏnot available on UT?
                                    • NordVPN
                                      • works on Focal importing the ovpn file (quite hidden in the manual setup, but well) and adding IKE v2 username/password
                                      • works on Xenial but you need to install VPN editor, and set Security/HMAC auth to SHA-512

                                    Another planet, another time, another universe!

                                      cyphering AES-256-GCM

                                      why this ? on xenial, with proton, i used AES-256-CBC. On focal , currently, with a config in system parameters, it works with WIFI on volla, but doesn't work with cellular data (see above in comments).

                                        @CiberSheep openssl ciphers | grep -i 256.gcm does reveal that there are several AES 256 GCM ciphers installed on Ubuntu Touch 20.04. But not having ever used ProtonVPN, I do not know if the right one is in the list.
