Hello,
this morning i start having some problem with network. Wifi work fine, but vpn doesnt connect anymore.
I use ghostvpn with openvpn protocol by download single server configuration files and import in network manager. Until this morning it always worked. Tryed other server but same result.

Also, my phone one plus 7t cant give connection at my laptop with parrotOs, in every way! Tethering usb, Tethering bluetooth, Wifi Hotspot.

Is not an hardware problem, because when i start my PC with Kali linux live from usb, all work fine(yes, also the vpn connection at same server who doesnt work from this morning in parrot).

I think some recently networkmanager update fuck something in my os, can i have some help?

EDIT:
Adding more information, network adapter: TP-LINK TL-WN722N

You have the log but you didn’t read it apparently…your configuration file has many issues so you could start there. I would say in general maybe you should compare the configuration files and the versions of the ovpn clients used in your box and your live usb.

As your suggestion, im trying to install another version of openvpn.

I found OpenVPN 2.4.9 in the official website(the one in the live parrot).

Well, already installed but the package manager doesnt see anything, so i cant install the network-manager-openvpn.

Any advice?
