VPN Help with Samsung Galaxy S5
-
I recently switched from Sprint to Cricket and upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy S5. I couldn't be happier with the device and network (AT&T). I get signal everywhere which is awesome. Sprint was spotty at best.
Ok so here's the deal. I use OpenVPN for Android to connect to my AirVPN service. It works great on Wifi, but not so great on Cellular signal. I am able to connect to VPN without any issue, but a few moments after I start pulling data I get disconnected. If I pull no data, VPN stays connected.

I have worked with both AirVPN and Cricket. Both support teams have been great and very responsive, but at this point they are just pointing fingers at each other. Cricket assures me that they do not block any TCP or UDP traffic. AirVPN thinkgs that cricket is blocking UDP traffic. However, I have the same issue when using TCP.
I have tried connecting to multiple VPN servers and I am consistently dropping connections after trying to access data.
AirVPN configuration is below

Try Pertino. See what happens.

Had any luck?

Ditto Pertino. Throwing my two cents into the mix.

Why won't it do what you need? That should be no issue.

Pertino would not work for this. it is not designed for it.
He wants to connect to a European IP and then watch streaming media over that IP.
Pertino could I guess if the device in Europe was then routing the incoming traffic back out tot he internet. But that is not a normal configuration for Pertino.
Also you would have to force normal internet traffic locally to go out Pertino instead of out to the internet.
