Option to prevent same provider Multihop chain

Open cm157 opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Feature request

Description

A multi hop connection is of limited value when the two hops rely on the same hosting provider.

Describe the solution you'd like

Very simple: If enabled, when a user selects an ingress server any egress options that uses on the same hosting provider will be marked or grayed out. Vice versa. Or an option in settings that simply prevents same provide cascades from being created (eg if user has selected random ingress and/or egress option)

Describe alternatives you've considered

Studying the ivpn server list and painstakingly configuring chains by referencing this list .

Hi @cm157, Thanks for the proposal. It looks like a good improvement, so we will probably implement this across all IVPN clients in one of the upcoming releases.

It's been over a year since this feature request and sad to see it has not been implemented. Please iVPN devs accelerate the deployment of this feature.
