I have kill switch disabled that's the thing
Do you use a DNS?
no i don't
Have you tried reinstalling yet? If you're in the UK that could explain the issue as ProtonVPN is apparently unlawfully being blocked out that way.
I've tried already, currently in the US
What about changing up the protocol and shield options?
there is no options for these on linux
That could be your issue, go to: settings -> connections -> select the VPN your connecting to -> VPN (openvpn) tab -> advanced -> general tab -> check use TCP connection
If the issue continues, definitely check the other advanced settings for sure. If you still have an issue I'd hit up Proton using https://protonvpn.com/support-form
Edit: Shield options are directly next to the kill switch icon under connect/disconnect as well
thank you but no luck also the protonvpn app doesn't let you select any settings
Fedora settings I was referring to actually, hope this helps!
