PSA: Upstream does not support building natively for ARM64, only cross-compiling. You can use mullvad-vpn-bin instead.

I'm facing problems in three cases

  1. with older or latest version of network manager & latest mullvad-vpn. The error throws up -- cannot establish a tunnel (wireguard) and in openvpn the wait is endless.
  2. in latest version of everything -- same problem.
  3. after systemd-resolved and symlink still nothing works with the latest version. Even the older version of mullvad throws up DNS error while pacman upgrade.

Please update me in this concern. BTW even beta is of no help.

I was going to say I had to switch to the beta cause I was having very weird DNS issues where mullvad did make a connection, I could browse the web through TOR, but everything else was offline. Don't have systemd-resolved installed, beta works indeed.

@eaburto Thank you, this worked for me with the newest version of NetworkManager and Mullvad-VPN-beta. I was hesitant to switch to systemd-resolved. No more downgrading Networkmanager for me! :)

For the people not wanting to change to systemd-resolved I just found another approach. You can still use openresolv with no problem adding this line to /etc/resolvconf.conf:

dynamic_order="tap[0-9]* tun[0-9]* vpn vpn[0-9]* wg-mullvad wg[0-9]* ppp[0-9]* ippp[0-9]*"

It's just the default value with the mullvad wireguard interface name added so it consider it a higher priority when adding the DNS servers to /etc/resolv.conf

@andykluger did it like you described it and it works now, thanks ^^

@null_matter ya your probably right ;D actually it's sad because i think many comment here but don't reach the Mullvad People :)

null_matter commented on 2021-01-13 16:26 (UTC)

cedricbambooza, I'm also just an arch user that has paid for the VPN and is upset it doesn't work sometimes :D

You can see the package maintainer above, but they are just another arch user as well as far as I know. You would want to contact Mullvad directly to give them feedback, I doubt any employee would read this package page. cheers

So is anyone working on getting this issue fixed?

only because I'm getting to see a pattern in this failures happing, first with the DNS not working with OpenVPN due to some network related changes from a kernel update i guess, that got fixed... and now again DNS issues with the whole thing not working at all also because of some update, this time probably networkmanager. what is going on?

not to be mean or something, but I've paid good money for a year of VPN Usage, but that doesn't help when it's broken most of the time...

and telling people to use the beta version can't be the fix either. why call it beta then if it is always the go to solution when the main release is broken?

when you need people to test your beta, just say so :) but don't force us to use it just by not fixing the main release, please.

for some reason i can't get electron to download during build of the beta package, it takes ages and stops before finishing. So even if tried i can't run beta at the moment...

I have not had any issues since the last release, using systemd-resolved.

That is, I have:

  • systemd-resolved enabled
  • systemd-resolvconf installed
  • /etc/resolv.conf symlinked to /run/systemd/resolv/stub-resolv.conf

Sadly no. I already tried reinstalling openresolv. It's curious how the proven solutions for this problem don't seem to work for me. I tried the different beta-packages (2020.8-beta2 still is the package I am using now) and openresolv was and is installed. Only downgrading NetworkManager seems to work for me. It's a minor annoyance for now, but I still wonder what's going on here.
