The servers accept connections on ports 53, 80, 443, 1194, 2018 UDP and TCP for OpenVPN and ports 1637, 47107 and 51820 UDP for WireGuard. They support OpenVPN over SSL and OpenVPN over SSH, TLS 1.3, OpenVPN tls-crypt and WireGuard.

macOS: Hummingbird 2.0.0 available

Hello!

We're very glad to inform you that Hummingbird 2.0.0 for macOS (Mojave or higher version required) is available. Different native versions for Intel and M1/M2/M3/M4 based Mac computers are available for maximum performance.

Hummingbird is free and open source released under GPLv3: https://gitlab.com/AirVPN/AirVPN-Suite

Main features

Lightweight and stand alone binary client supporting both OpenVPN and WireGuard

No heavy framework required, no GUI

Small RAM footprint

Lightning fast

Based on OpenVPN 3 library fork by AirVPN and WireGuard

Robust leaks prevention through Network Lock based on pf

Proper handling of DNS push by VPN servers

New, more flexible Network Lock

What's new

linked against OpenVPN3-AirVPN 3.12 library

all libraries and dependencies have been updated

added complete WireGuard support by means of the official WireGuard tools provided by its developers. Installation of wg and wireguard-go binaries is currently required, as WireGuard library is not available on macOS. Please check the user's manual (README.md file included in the packages) WireGuard support section for comfortable, step by step instructions.

new Network Lock related options offering more flexibility. Now you can accept or deny incoming, outgoing or both ICMP-echo packets, and independently you can permit or forbid IPv6 NDP, which is based on ICMPv6. The new options supported by Hummingbird (please check the readme file for additional details) are:

--allow-ping

--allow-ipv6ndp

Apple ARM based systems version is now C++20 compliant (required by Sequoia)

Important note for high speed line users

Because of some architectural specifications and implementation in macOS Hummingbird may warn the user about shortage of buffer space, specifically when connected with the UDP. This condition is signaled by Hummingbird with the below messages in the log:

UDP send exception: send: No buffer space available ERROR: NETWORK_SEND_ERROR

The error is caused by the maximum network sockets size set in macOS, a value usually small and unsuited for modern high speed networks. The solution consists in increasing the maximum allowed size for socket buffers and, in case the problem persists, the number of mbuf clusters. The procedure is simple, please find out all the details in the manual. Open the README.md file with any viewer and consult the "Note on macOS and UDP" section.

Metallah server withdrawal announcement (US)

Hello!

We're sorry to inform you that due to sloppy support by the datacenter provider (Racklot) we have decommissioned the server Metallah. Metallah went down on June the 18th, 2025, because IP addresses were null-routed. After more than a month, in spite of various contacts and solicitations, Racklot still fails to restore the routing. Our patience is over and we're acting accordingly. This was the last server still not supporting IPv6 (again for the laziness and the sloppy behavior of Racklot), so we finally have IPv6 support on every and each server.

AirVPN 15th birthday celebrations

Hello!

Today we're starting AirVPN 15th Birthday celebrations with big discounts on longer term plans.

From a two servers service located in a single country providing a handful of Mbit/s, the baby has grown up to a wide infrastructure in 23 countries on four continents!

AirVPN is now one of the few major consumer VPNs that is still independent. In other words, it is not owned by large corporations with diverse interests that interfere through editorial publications or conflict with privacy protection.

Since our 14th birthday celebration, our customer base has grown impressively, and we would like to thank all the old and new customers who chose or confirmed AirVPN.

AirVPN has focused on comprehensive enhancements, including:

line and server expansion to accommodate the outstanding customer growth. The infrastructure can now deliver up to 970,000 Mbit/s. Compared to the 694,000 Mbit/s available in May 2024, this is a 28% increase in a single year

yet another thorough rewrite of remote inbound port forwarding logic to offer greater convenience and true scalability. The new implementation was designed to meet the growing demand for remote inbound port forwarding

the unlimited traffic quota for every and each customer subscription plan has never been modified

On the software side:

all AirVPN applications and libraries are free and open source software released under GPLv3

new, greatly improved Eddie Desktop and Eddie Android editions

Eddie Android edition implements a new community request: an opt-in GPS spoofing feature integrated with the infrastructure in order to provide coordinates consistent with the location of the VPN server the device is connected to

Eddie Desktop edition new version included several bug fixes and the new CLI edition is built on .NET7. Thus, it no longer needs Mono (Linux, macOS) and is built without Xamarin (macOS)

the development of traffic splitting features on an application basis, already available in AirVPN Eddie Android and Android TV edition, and implemented on the AirVPN Suite for Linux last year, has been improved together with the new Suite features during the year long internal and community tests

the OpenVPN3-AirVPN library is actively maintained as usual.

If you're already our customer and you wish to extend your stay, any additional subscription will be added to your existing subscriptions and you won't lose any days.

Check the promotional prices here: https://airvpn.org/buy

Promotion will end on June the 12th, 2025 (UTC).
