Introducing the revamped internet Kill Switch for ultra security: when enabled, it will block your device from accessing the internet when you’re not connected to VPN.
-
Wrong commands happen. If you changed your mind after entering ‘nordvpn connect [country/city/group/server]’, you can cancel the VPN connection attempt with Ctrl+C and start over.
-

NordVPN 3.4.0
-
We made it easier for you to try NordLynx – the solution for a fast, secure, and private VPN connection. To start using NordLynx, you no longer have to download the WireGuard® package. Use the command ‘nordvpn set technology nordlynx’ – and that’s it!
-
The ‘nordvpn settings’ command shows the VPN technology you’re currently using: OpenVPN or NordLynx.
-
Here’s a little time-saver: when you’re connected to VPN and want to switch to another server or location, you can do it without disconnecting first.
-
When connecting to group servers, you can specify the location, for example, ‘nordvpn connect –group p2p Canada’.
-
Oh, and we almost forgot – a bunch of various fixes and improvements to make the app run smoother.
NordVPN 3.3.1
In the previous release, we introduced NordLynx – a solution for a fast and secure VPN connection based on WireGuard®. Now we’re bringing a few improvements to make your NordLynx experience even better:
-
The CyberSec feature now plays nicely with NordLynx. You can still block ads and shield yourself from malware after switching from OpenVPN.
-
Auto-connect now works smoothly. We fixed the bug where the app was trying to connect to VPN way too soon – even before your computer connected to the internet.
Also, we’ve added subtle tweaks and squished a few minor bugs to make NordVPN work better for you.
NordVPN 3.3.0
We’re introducing NordLynx – the solution for a fast, secure, and private VPN connection. Our NordLynx technology is based on WireGuard® and lets you experience its speed benefits without compromising your privacy.
By default, NordVPN for Linux runs on the OpenVPN protocol. After you download the latest version, follow these steps to switch to NordLynx:
- Install WireGuard. Tutorials for different distributions are available in our Help Center
- Open the terminal and enter
nordvpn set technology nordlynx - To connect to VPN, enter
nordvpn c
That’s it – now your app is running on NordLynx. You can always switch back to OpenVPN by enteringnordvpn set technology OpenVPN
What’s more:
-
Now you can give us instant feedback about your connection speeds. Was it like driving an F1 racer? Or rather a slow and bumpy ride? We want to know. Your feedback will help us improve!
