PIA Disabling AES-128-CBC?

I am using OpenVPN and when configuring it with the AES-128-CBC encryption algorithm seems to make it fail when connecting to PIA.  It worked perfectly fine before...but fairly recently, fails.  

When changing it to BF-CBC, it seems like it connects and works fine.

Did PIA Disable this algorithm?

  • Hi vic123,

    I'm very sorry you're running into this. We've recently stopped using port 1196.

    Which port and certificate are you using at the moment? For AES-128-CBC, our preferred port is now 1198 with our new certificate (if you're changing from port 1196, you'll need to download the new CA cert as well).

    We've got more complete details about the ports, and which ciphers/CAs to use on them in this article on our support center:

    Hopefully this clears things up and gets you connected successfully. Otherwise, feel free to reply and I should be able to help you out with this.
