      client I downloaded the openvpn config from ivpn and imported it with nmcli but I had to manually input the ca cert and tsl cert

      Its working 100% perfect on WiFi but when I go on 4g it connects to the VPN but I get no internet

      I'm on ubuntu touch version 24.04.1.3

      Perhaps could you try to reduce the MTU packet size?
      nmcli connection modify "Your_VPN" +vpn.data "mssfix=1300"

        Another possibility is to disable IPV6
        nmcli connection modify "Your_VPN" ipv6.method ignore

            @Vlad-Nirky sadly non of those commands fixed it

            Pretty weird that openvpn works on WiFi but not mobile data

              Last chance, force the openvpn
              nmcli connection modify "Your_VPN" ipv4.never-default no
              nmcli connection modify "Your_VPN" ipv6.never-default no

                Did you tried a ping of an IP address or a domain name?

                    I was wondering if you could ping 8.8.8.8 instead of www.google.com
                    More likely a block by the ISP

                      when i run ping 8.8.8.8 i get
                      PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data
                      when i dissable vpn on 4g i get much more output when i ping

                      never heard of isp/carriers blocking vpns where i live might try a config with port 443 then.

                      443 i heard can often get around vpn blocks

                        @Vlad-Nirky tried a new config with TCP at port 443 same issue

                        I'm pretty sure my mobile data carrier doesn't block VPNs. On my old Android phone I used OpenVPN 24/7 when I was on 4G before I switched to using Ubuntu Touch as my daily driver.

                        i run vpn on my router so its really only for when im on 4g/mobile data i woude want a vpn on the phone
                        when im at home i get vpn over wireless

                          Any errors in
                          sudo journalctl -u NetworkManager -f
                          What gives ip route show when vpn is active (mentionning tun interface)?

                            @Vlad-Nirky

                            when i run sudo journalctl -u NetworkManager -f
                            these are the only errors i noticed

                            Dnsmasq is just using nameservers and NetworkManager is bringing up tun0. The only real problem in the snippet is the VPN restarting:

                            nm-openvpn: Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting
                            nm-openvpn: SIGUSR1[soft,ping-restart] received, process restarting

                            this is the active connections listed when i run mnlci connection show --active

                            o1.gw.ivpn.net
                            NetCon
                            lo
                            tun0

                              I restarted my OpenVPN (on Pi-hole).
                              I was able to connect my phone to it and access my home network via 4G LTE.
                              Running on 24.04-2.x (don't know if this matter)

                                  Yes not easy to share things without leaking some private informations...

                                  Perhaps could you take a look at this exchange

                                      @Vlad-Nirky thanks
                                      I anonymize the IP routes log but I quickly realized it woude baisicly be useless when anonymized

                                      So I just deleted it since it had no value
