Bhai, my connection is not stable sometime. Connection to BDIX from my server is stable, and connection to my server from my ISP is stable too. But I am not getting the max BDIX speed all the time. Speed keeps dropping from time to time. Its happening for almost all the users on my server. Is it an issue from Softether's side?

When you connect your Server through BDIX Tunnel it set the internet speed of Server. Example, I got my Server BDIX Speed 100Mbps and IG 50Mbps, my ISP allowed me 100Mbps BDIX and 2Mbps Internet. Now once I connect to VPN Server I might get around 40Mbps to 49Mbps. Hope you got it.

Thanks bhai, now I got it. My server might have 20mbps IIG. Can you kindly tell me, which provider's VPS you are using? and, monthly/yearly cost?

Right now I'm using XeonBD, since I'm an old customer my VPS price is around 5$. Where speed is around 20 to 50Mps. Right now there are not many VPS providers in BD, so the best you can do is to setup Raspberry PI VPN Server by renting a Good connection from an ISP in Dhaka.

Yea. I would have done that if I were in Dhaka atm! I am outside of Dhaka, that's why this server thing is a big issue! Would you mind checking your Facebook Message Requests? I knocked you there. If you are willing to share your server, I would love to pay to use.

I just faced that error. Any ideas how to resolve it :) ?

When you try again, instead of type "y" type 1.

I will try with ubuntu 20, then I leave the feedback here

Edit: Not Working

@cubankenshi Thats interesting. I just installed it by following this script on a 20.04 server and it worked like a charm.

Thanks @amanjuman for sharing it!

It takes about 4 mb from all of us who connect, making it slower, is there a configuration for this?
