This is good software and a generally solid choice. Viscosity is a cut above, however, and worth it for me. More reliable connects, holds the connection where tunnelblick disconnects, and is easier to use for those not tech savvy.

Crappy software that can open a DNS leak to your VPN connection. It can not even handle the DNS Settings on macOS. I'm not really excited about Shimo. But it works much better than Tunnelblick.

Very ver nice app. Love it. Thank you very much. Works very well and never crashes. Also works with older VPN configs I got. Using it for quite a while now I'm not having any problems at all. I really like the screen stickies that appear when you hover over the icon and show the connection stats and allow to connect/disconnect. Easy to configure.

The latest version includes some improvements but it's not compatible with the old profiles that are used by some VPN providers.

Yes, for some reason connection speeds are notably slow with it. What could be cause?

Are you referring to data throughput or slow to connect initially? For me, Tunnelblick takes about 9 to 10 seconds to establish a connection. I thought it was due to my service provider's servers but the OpenVPN client on my iPhone connects to the same servers in a second or two. Is it worth checking out Viscosity?

works very well, as well as Visc. The interface isn't as sexy as Visc. Do you care?

Tunnelblick works great on my Mac to connect to my VPN server at my office. Is there any way to use Tunnelblick(or similar app) with the latest iPad?

I tried Tunnelblick for a couple of weeks but I kept having issues with my VPN provider. I switched to Viscosity and everything has been peaches ever since.

Yep .... Viscosity is so much better. Tunnelblick kept crashing or wouldn't stay connected. Viscosity has had none of these issues.

Use TB for years now. Incompatibilities in some versions often were solved very fast. Many thanks to the developers.

If you mean that after quitting Tunnelblick, that your primary (normal) connection is disconnected and does not work: Then within the Tunnelblick application, chose VPN details, click once on the name of your configuration file, go to the lower right corner of the window and click on advanced, tick the box for "Reset the primary interface after disconnectiing"
