Mullvad seems to be working, but some people have reported
that it is possible, it silently drops a connection but appears to
be connected.
I don’t know how to check for that, though. Time to learn.
ipleak(dot)net is a much better test to see if your VPN is working correctly.
Swap proxies while the test is running to see if there’s any leaks. that’s the one thing that almost every VPN fails at protecting. Mullvad and proton are the only 2 I’ve ever used that don’t leak.

If you are using Mullvad, just go to their web page and look at the top bar to see if you are connected to their VPN or not.
Thank you.
You can test it with What is My IP
Thank you.

Sure. But all we were talking about here was Windows silently dropping the VPN completely. That’s very different than evaluating how good a VPN is.
Simple tests for simple problems.
okay, so which VPNs are affected?
Don’t know.
I’ve checked my ProtonVPN a few times in the last days. It’s working.
I haven’t tried any others.
