Mullvad on iOS or iPadOS says "Network error: The request timed out". Can't login/send error report.
Delete the Mullvad app and install it again from the App Store. To delete an app you have to press and hold your finger on it and then select "Remove App" or "Delete App".
#
Which country will the IP address that I get be located in?
The Mullvad app allows you to choose. Check out our full list of VPN servers and locations.
#
How do I tunnel IPv6 traffic in the app?
You can enable IPv6 communication in the Advanced settings menu.
#
Do you offer dedicated ip?
No, it is not aligned with privacy since it somehow has to be linked to a user
#
Do I get a shared or dedicated IP address?
Shared.
#
While using the Mullvad VPN app, I can't access local shares, printers or services. What do I do?
Open the Mullvad app settings, then click on Preferences and turn on "Local network sharing".
In some cases you have to use the IP address to connect instead of the hostname.
If the device is on a different subnet (IP address range) then add a static route to that in the operating system.
In Android this will not work if you have enabled "Block connections without VPN" in the Android network settings.
#
Can I use the Mullvad Browser without a VPN?
Yes, but if you don’t use a trustworthy VPN in combination with the Mullvad Browser your IP address won’t be masked. To avoid data collectors and mass monitors to identify you thanks to your IP address (and hide your traffic from your ISP) – use a trustworthy VPN together with the Mullvad Browser.
#
Why does Chrome / Chromium (Brave) based browsers fail on macOS with the error socket not connected
To fix this, in the Mullvad app, please enable IPv6 found in "Settings" -> "VPN Settings" -> "Enable IPv6"
or disable IPv6 on the network interface using the command "networksetup -setv6off Ethernet"
or "networksetup -setv6off Wi-Fi" if using Wi-Fi .
#
Why do I get low speeds using WireGuard on pfSense (when using snort) ?
If you use INLINE IPS then try setting it to Legacy mode and see if the performance improves after that.
#
Are you blocking any ports?
Yes, because of spam we block port 25. Because of a Microsoft security issue, we also block ports 137, 138, 139, and 445. We reserve the right to block any port or IP address in order to protect ourselves, our customers, and the quality of our service.
#
Running Mullvad in a virtual machine drops the connection quite often. How do I fix that?
Please make sure that your guest VM is using static IP addresses.
#
I am using the ASUS stock firmware and when importing the Mullvad .ovpn file it says "File format or
Open the .ovpn file in a text editor and remove the line "tun-ipv6" before you import it.

IP exposure via UDP ports
We have recently become aware of a newly published method for deanonymizing VPN users. For this to work, the user must be running some software that listens to and communicates via a UDP port and either be connecting directly to the internet without a NAT router or be behind a NAT router with port forwarding enabled.

iOS 9 problems

WebRTC and anonymity
It has come to our attention that the new WebRTC standard can be used to expose the real public IP of people connected through a VPN-service. In short WebRTC allows users to have video and audio communications directly in the browser without any plugins installed, IPs being exposed is an unfortunate side-effect of how this works. Les mer
