[SOLVED] ExpressVPN application: Internet not working

Hello, I have had some issues connecting up to ExpressVPN even though at first everything was working well. I installed ExpressVPN application from AUR and
activated it. The thing was working for one whole day after which I started experiencing troubles after connecting up to either server/either protocol combination.

I can't seem to get any pings to any server while connected. The application doesn't work; the Firefox and Chromium plugins do not work either ( anymore ).

I've tried setting it up within NetworkManager by importing ovpn configuration files in KDE Plasma's NetworkManager app. It does indicate as connected but actually it is not.

Manual connecting reveals some problems with routing though, but I don't know how to deal with it.

There seems to be a problem with routing/default gateway but I am really not sure how to fix it. Obviously the default route to 192.168.1.254 ( my router )
gets lost after connecting. How can I fix this - automating adding the route without needing to edit resolv.conf by hand every time I use the VPN?

Thanks a million!

Re: [SOLVED] ExpressVPN application: Internet not working

The ExpressVPN client shouldn't touch your default gateway (at least, in my experience).

Remove all the stuff you've done with NetworkManager in regards to the ovpn config, disconnect from ExpressVPN, stop expressvpn.service, and get your networking back to the state it was in before you started using it.

Then post the outputs from the following:

$ ip link
$ ip addr
$ ip route
$ nmcli c show
$ nmcli c show <id of your active connection>

Then start expressvpn.service, run `expressvpn connect smart`, and post the output's of the above commands now, as well as the output of.

$ expressvpn diagnostics
$ expressvpn preferences
$ journalctl -u expressvpn.service --since -10m #adjust as required

Re: [SOLVED] ExpressVPN application: Internet not working

I have some ( rather bad ) news in regards to the aforementioned ability of my system to connect to ExpressVPN using browser plugin, for it won't anymore. The end result after connecting up is the same as when trying to connect using the application.
I can't seem to connect to ProtonVPN, either. Hm.

I did as you suggested.

P.S. I need to add that this is my only system I can't connect to VPN on. I normally use it on my OpenBSD box and on my mobile phones.

Re: [SOLVED] ExpressVPN application: Internet not working

This issue was solved by disabling systemd-networkd and systemd-resolved services since both systemd-networkd and NetworkManager were active at the same time, causing conflict.

Re: [SOLVED] ExpressVPN application: Internet not working

I had the same problem and I disabled systemd-networkd but still, no luck..  kind of stuck here and support cannot figure out what's wrong.  The VPN connects but there is no internet.
