I do not wish to download without VPN
Surely the topic has been discussed before, but unfortunately I could not find a suitable thread...
For a better feeling while downloading I got myself a VPN account (Cyberghost). This works basically fine. But now I have noticed a very undesirable behavior of JDownloader. From time to time it happens that the VPN connection is interrupted. JDownloader then continues to work without VPN. Is there a possibility to set JDownloader to stop downloads when the VPN is not available? I am using Ubuntu-Budgie Bionic Beaver and have set up VPN access via the Network Manager (all traffic via VPN). I am looking forward to answers. Many thanks and best regards |

Hello, raztoki,
thank you for the quick answer! Unfortunately I can't quite follow you with my dangerous half-knowledge. In the connection management I see the entry "no Proxy". It is greyed out and cannot be deactivated for the time being. Probably I have to create a new entry here first to deactivate the default entry? How and where to add a new connection on the vpn assigned interface? Do I do this in the connection management of JDownloader? I probably have to choose "direct" as my type here. Under Network Interface I am offered a single entry in the drop-down list (eno1). In the field IP/Network Interface I have to add an entry. What should it look like and where can I find it? Thanks a lot for the help! |

Hi,
no all connections are always visible. With my "Windscribe" test VPN e.g., it is only visible once the VPN software is running and a connection is established. It looks like this then: -psp-

Hello pspzockerscene,
thank you very much! Now I also see another network interface (tun4). What do I have to enter now under IP/Network Interface (middle field)? |

When I reconnect, the "tun" interface will count up.
Now I have entered 0.0.0.0 in the middle field for IP/network interface. This works, but is it the right setting? Thanks in advance. |

That was not the solution, I still see same behavior.

So did you figure out how to only download when VPN is active? What did you put in "IP/network interface"

Which VPN provider are you using?
Can you see the adapter of that service in the "Direct" list in JD? Does your VPN provider also support Socks/HTTP proxys? -psp-

It was really difficult to understand connection manager because I did not have vpn link up while I was trying to do setup. Once I start vpn I think I figured it out (currently testing setup) but have related questions so I will post new topic for that. Last edited by ScottQ; 03.06.2021 at 08:10. |

@ScottQ: I would recommend to use the proxy setup instead of VPN setup because it is easier to use and you can use multiple locations/proxy at the same time whereas the VPN setup only works one at a time.
You can either ask here if you need help or create new topic
