      VPN won't connect here also. Using Version 45.0.2552 with Windows 7 Pro x64 stable. Just started having the problem about an hour ago. How to check "third part data"? Where would I find that?

          Must have been a 'glitch' of some kind. It's back on now. Lasted a couple of hours. Weird.

                VPN says "Authentication credentials required" now. is this a known issue?

                  Today, May 17, 2017 at around 7 PM GMT, VPN is no longer working on two different machines.

                  I use Opera 45.0.2552.812 64-bit on Windows 10 Pro (Creator's Update).

                    Mine is down again, along with many other people..... I wonder if maybe the servers VPN contacts are affected by the WannaCrypt bull s$$$?!

                            We shouldn't have to be clearing this, tweaking this, turning around 4 times and scratching our elbow while saying a mantra, etc etc to get a built in VPN working...especially when the mobile app opera vpn works considerably better.

                              I too have a problem opening a website with VPN enabled.
                              After a reboot it works but if I close the browser then reopen it, I get this problem.
                              I am running Windows 10 Creators Edition on a 64 bit processor.
                              VPN was the only reason I moved to Opera.
                              Come on Opera. Fix the problem if you don't want me to go back to Microsoft Edge.
