OpenVPN Client 2.5.7 Installs *Unknown adapter*

Post by Mdoozy » Sun Oct 23, 2022 5:13 pm

Hello

I need some help kindly. I installed OpenVPN-2.5.7-I602-amd64 and noticed after installation that it added two unknown adapters below:

Unknown adapter OpenVPN Wintun:

Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Wintun Userspace Tunnel
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . :
DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes

Unknown adapter OpenVPN TAP-Windows6:

Media State . . . . . . . . . . . : Media disconnected
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : TAP-Windows Adapter V9
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-FF-1E-E0-38-0C
DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes

When I connect to my VPN provider using split-tunnel config file, and try to direct my bittorrent client to use the unknown adapters, it does not work as before when I had the older versions of OpenVPN installed *Ethernet adapter*.

TIA
Jag
