Hi, ive been having trouble with my IP address not changing in the wooshbuild plugin so was shown your putty method.New beta OpenVPN script generator
If using a Mac there are instructions at the end of the document for an alternative to Putty
First open Putty, and in the HostName (or IP address) box enter the enigma2 boxes IP address, and then click the Telnet radio button and click open
And then log in using the word, root
Users can now visitCode:http://e2openvpn.com/OpenVPN_Generator/
Add there username and password this will now generate a script.
Copy and paste the script in putty and hit enter you should now have the option for what VPN you want to use:
1) Nord VPN
2) IP Vanish
3) Digibit
4) PureVPN
5) PIA VPN
6) Quite
Choose your option and hit Enter this should then download the configs and once finished it will say OpenVPN Configs downloaded Please Start OpenVPN.
You will be asked to enter your choice again but you can ignore this.
Reboot box and goto plugins, VPN Changer and choose a country.
If using Mac
There is a version of Putty for Mac but is not very good.
Open Applications ->Utilities ->
Type the following command telnet 192.168.X.X (change the IP address to the one for the Zgemma/Enigma2 boxes)
Enter the username root (and password if you have set one) and press enter
Then follow the instructions above.
Problem 1,
When enabling OpenVPN I lose internet connection.
Possible Solution
Goto your network settings on box and change DHPC to no then blue button to Edit DNS
Try Google DNS
Nameserver 1 8.8.8.8
Nameserver2 8.8.4.4
Ive just followed your instructions but now when i go into the wooshbuild VPN plugin i cant get any servers to start.
Do you have any suggestions on what i could do please?
When visiting the site you linked which username and password do i add, i presume it was my nord account?
