This is being fixed now and you should expect an update soon.

The reason you are getting "Authentication credentials required" is because you have not selected a country profile and the VPN location is set to Optimal...

I had tried that. It didn't work for me.

Opera 40.0 is out and its VPN is working fine even without tweaking (at least, in my systems). So, you people can leave developer and switch to stable, if VPN is your primary reason for using the former

I've got the same problem with Opera dev 41.0.2349.0 on W7Pro. VPN worked fine for a long time, but now I cleared my browsing data...

opera://settings/clearBrowserData

...with "Third party services data" checked. Directly after this the error message "Authentication credentials required." is displayed every time I try to open a website with VPN turned on.

I am pretty sure clearing "Third party services data" caused the error message "Authentication credentials required.", because I cleared my browsing data several times a day before with "Third party services data" UNchecked without having this problem.

Hope this helps to fix the bug. For the moment I am not able to use VPN anymore with my Opera dev installation

Same problem here with the Authentication credentials ... I just figured out that I'm unable to reach surfeasy web site via Opera!!! I think the problem stars here!!! Does anyone have the same problem?? (https://support.surfeasy.com/hc/en-us)

The problem seems to be fixed out of nowhere. VPN in Opera dev works again for me without any update or restart since a few minutes?!

Hi Guys, the problem should be solved now. Could you restart Opera and check again. Please report if there are still issues with VPN.

At the moment VPN works like a charm but a few hours ago it turned several times from blue to orange and back within a second.

PS: I'd like to see Austria (not to be confused with Australia) and Switzerland as virtual locations.

Hi kmielczarczyk,
For me the issue remains the same

• VPN turned OFF --> can't reach https://support.surfeasy.com/hc/en-us web site
• VPN turned ON ---> can't reach any site!!

Hi there,
Any news regarding the fix of the VPN issue?
It's a bit strange that with the VPN turned ON, I just can access a few sites that a normaly use.

For instance I'm not able to load my home page: https://start.duckduckgo.com
But I can load this one: http://www.sapo.pt

Same Issue here! Still!

Interestingly:
40.0.2308.15 beta works like a charm WITH VPN active! the final doesn't.

@ dirkkramm, I've just tried 40.0.2308.52 beta and the VPN doesn't work as well. The badge its always switching between Blue & Orange!!
