doesn`t work in RU. On my Android workin but on PC & App .exe Proton not workin. help me via connect on VPN.

the only reason why I downloaded this was to have a free vpn which can change my location. you have to pay money to select which country server you use.

The extension looks the part but has usability issues that need managing manually.

The main usability issue is that if you're connected to a VPN server and the computer goes into sleep mode then later resumes, the connection isn't refreshed/handled properly, effectively blocking traffic until you manually disconnect/reconnect. Occasionally this issues causes the GUI to become unresponsive too, requiring the extension itself to be restarted.

There's also no feedback given on the connection quality/speed of the server you're currently connected to. If it starts to feel slow, it requires manually moving to another server; there's no automatic transfer to a better equivalent server within the same country.

Not a negative mark on the extension per se - but it's worth noting that there's a growing list of websites that will detect you using a VPN (likely through matching your IP against IPs known to belong to Proton/etc.), making VPN usage for 'general' anonymous browsing more and more frustrating.

Proton VPN itself works well and provides lots of protections and connection configuration; it's just the extension that has a few issues really.

Easy to install and to get it to work. Works like is should. Using on Linux, easy.

It never worked since I installed it like 3 weeks ago. My case is the same than the one of the previous reviewer. I need it mostly for one website. When trying to enable it I get the same error: "Network error..." Firefox and add-on are updated, 115.26.0es and 1.2.9 respectively. Not using any other proxy or VPN.

Update due to developer's reply: I'll contact you providing info on the questions asked. I would like to add that I just tried the Chrome extension and it works. So it might be something related specifically to Firefox.

Update 2: I solved it. When filling up the support request I decided to give it a last try and discovered that when installing the add-on there's a fugacious message I can't read nor accept that precedes the aforementioned error. So I recorded my screen and play in slow motion and saw there's a message asking for permissions. After googling I went to the add-ons page and selected the extension and then its Permissions tab and enabled them and it worked. Might be kind of a bug that prevents the message to stop.

Maybe it's because I'm on the Windows 7 ESR version of Firefox, but this addon just doesn't work for me at all, clicking on it just gives me a "NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource" message. A pity because I have the standalone program and the android app and love them both, but sometimes I just want to use a VPN for a couple of websites rather than for all my internet traffic.

I need to reboot the extension whenever I switch wifi networks or else every few days. I routinely keep about:addons open so I can turn the extension off and on again. When I click the extension icon in the toolbar in this state, it just shows me a loading spinner. Besides this hiccup, the extension works great. (I am a subscriber.)

Please add an option to connect to last.

Es la mejor VPN como App en Android, en Windows y como complemento en Firefox (cuando solo la necesitas en un browser). La mejor con mucha diferencia.

thanks

While this extension has its merits, it has a critical flaw that significantly impacts its usability for me. Since last year, the connection has become unstable in China, and there are times when I simply cannot connect, no matter how many attempts I make.

Additionally, the login process requires accessing the proton.me domain, which is not feasible in China. I have to use other tools to bypass the Great Firewall just to log in to ProtonVPN, which is quite absurd. The whole point of using ProtonVPN is to access the internet freely, yet I find myself needing to circumvent restrictions just to use the service.

Чтобы включить ВПН, нужно сначала его обновить, а при нажатии на кнопку обновления выкидывает на страницу дополнения. Замкнутый круг, бесполезная трата времени и сил

good for ubuntu linux
