Right, so after reinstalling everything including the Wireguard application I have got it to verify and connect. Only issue now is the speed is like 0.2Mbps...

I updated from OpenVPN to Wireguard when it first launch which was a year ago, I think. I had no issue since then. For a networking beginner like me, may I please ask how to see my DNS via my local network vs connected to my VPN? Like a previous comment stated, would requesting a IP change work as well after I confirm any DNS leak? I confirmed my VPN's location is showing where it should be. I subscribed to a NYC Streaming IP. I also Use Hulu with Live TV and works with no issue. I think because that account is American based and address/zip code to NYC, my credit card paying is US based, and my VPN is located in NYC as well so I don't think Hulu will be an issue but the possible leaky DNS may be an issue. I assume if I make an American based Netflix account I should be okay if I use my Streaming IP.

Same problem here with my 2 Streaming/residential IP`s since yesterday it is not working anymore!

Hmm both my US streaming IPs are working so either something has recently changed in your config or Netflix is cracking down on viewing outside where the original account is located, which I doubt as we would surely have heard a big stink about this somewhere online already. Have you recently switched from OpenVPN to Wireguard? When you do a IP location lookup what location does it provide? It's possible your real DNS is leaking and that's how netflix is identifying you as using a vpn/proxy.

It’s a streaming IP for a specific city.

As of super recent, my client has been disconnecting at random as well when using WG. I've been using TG for almost a year, and this hasn't started happening until recently and I'm not sure why. The client works fine with no disconnects on my desktop, but when I'm at work on my laptop(usually using public wifi hotspots from my ISP), that's when the random disconnects happen. I've been using these same networks at work with WG with no random disconnects until very recent. When I'm back to work on the weekend I'll try to document and provide my log to TG Support as well. Perhaps we're facing the same issue.

Quick question, is this a regular Dedicated IP or one of their Streaming/Residential IPs which are specifically designed for Streaming this type of content? If it is a Streaming/Residential IP then you should open a ticket with support to see if it is just that IP affected and if you can get a new one. If its just a regular dedicated IP then you should consider switching to a Streaming/Residential IP. You can either open a support ticket to Sales or once you log into your TG account go to the Services tab and View Available Addons. Good luck.

Were there ever any test results for performance between 1.1.1.1 and Torguard Public DNS?

Still procrastinating over it. 🤪 Anyone else use Plusnet with TorGuard other than ErTnEc? One more recommendation and I think I'll give them a try. Thanks.

I've been using TorGuard for almost 2 and a half years in Europe to access American Netflix content via a dedicated IP. I just got a message while watching American content from a European Netflix account (same one for almost 2 and a half years) of turning off unblocker/proxy server. I can't access the content anymore. Are there any solutions in my case? New dedicated IP? Changing any settings to my VPN router? Change WireGuard settings? Or is my only solution to do is get an American-based Netflix account and access via my VPN again? https://help.netflix.com/en/node/112694 (error I received from Netflix 3-5059)

@Kratos Many thanks - will give a whirl later.

@Neon glad you're up and running. Now that you have that sorted, and you've set up your garlic repellent, you may want to check out the experimental Wireguard update that runs in the windows kernel. WireGuardNT, a high-performance WireGuard implementation for the Windows kernel Seems faster to me on the generic TG servers but I'm not yet sure if that's wishful thinking or actual fact.

Kratos - your clue about Gremlins helped me sort out my "problem". Reinstalled all by network adapters and that has done the trick. For good luck i have thrown in a couple of cloves of garlic into the pc ✌️

By the way , Kratos I appreciate you taking the time on this matter . . . thank you

1 yes 2 no 3 yes 4 yes 5 😁

Chinaa108 Posted August 7, 2020 Make sure the file you generate is OpenVPN Version: 2.3 or older. Select a port that supports sha1. and specify cipher none.

still waiting for an update

I didn’t realize it was that easy. I didn’t realize this was one of the benefits of having a private IP address through Torguard. Thanks again for your help!

@VenkatI agree with @Dom1no, this is probably something on your side. When you say TorGuard disconnects with wireguard, then without a log nobody can tell you more. On one side wireguard is connectionless protocol, once you connect, you do not need to reconnect even by switching networks. Agreeing with dom1no, go to your settings and enable debug log, then reproduce your issue and send your log to TorGuard Support (by opening ticket as example). TorGuard will be able to see if anything is faulty on their side, which we all doubt, but more important is that they might know how you can resolve it if they see anything relevant in logs.

I have been using The Torguard Application Daily and i am Also using Wireguard and am not seeing any disconnects.... I also do not see other people posting on the forums with This problem you are having which would indicate the problem you are having is on your end. It Honestly could be any number of things that could be wrong > A picture of your settings would help like i don't know what settings you have set inside the application maybe something is misconfigured... It would seem though that this is not a common issue but something specifically related to your computer environment because for almost everyone else it is working flawlessly. In your Settings under the Network* Tab are the Main settings it could be something configured wrong in there. Not sure what you have set though,

I'm facing serious issues with WireGuard protocol. Only OpenVPN & OpenConnect works without disconnection. With WireGuard, the disconnection happens at random intervals. Sometimes, right after 2 mins whereas sometimes after 1 hr. However, when I generate WireGuard config file and use it with the native WireGuard App, the connection is flawless. So, there is some issue with respect to TorGuard VPN app. I even created a support ticket to sort out this issue but nobody seems to acknowledge the issue and rectify it. The support team kept stating over emails that there has to be some issue only on my end so, I finally gave up after following up with them for 10+ days. Now, I tried updating the VPN client to 4.7.3 and the issue still persists. I've followed all the steps that was mentioned here in this forum by the Support admin still no use. Also, I'm not using any third party antivirus apps and have whitelisted all the programs related to TorGuard and WireGuard. I've also whitelisted all these programs on the firewall just to be extra sure. In spite of all this, I'm not able to get TorGuard VPN app to work flawlessly with WireGuard protocol. I'm so tired of this issue. This issue never occurred to me when I was using SurfShark VPN. Can someone please, help me with a fix? Is there any fix first of all? I'm totally out of options & I get tired of trying to find a fix. Thanks a lot in advance!

I hate to assume so I'll ask. Did you try the steps I outlined above? Also, is your TG install a fresh install, or a carry over from before the upgrade? I didn't have TG installed before upgrading to Windows 11. Do you have wireguard installed separately from the TG install? Did you try to completely uninstall TG including deleting the app folder (AppData\Local\VPNetworkLLC) and any registry entries then rebooting and starting fresh? Gremlins in the PC probably but Luck hardly ever bothers with hardware + software issues.

lucky you - i'm still having problems on wndows 11

I had this issue on initial install of the Torguard app on Windows 11. Here's the steps I've done and it's now working: 1. Restore Defaults under General Tab 2. Refresh Server List under General Tab 3. Refresh Cache under Network Tab 4. Restart PC On reboot it connects fine. See below.
