[SOLVED, kinda] Downloading OpenVPN profile is either very slow or nothing is happening

  • FreedomBox is plugged into a router
  • I’m running Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) and FreedomBox version 20.20.1.

I’ve tried, multiple times, from multiple devices, to download my OpenVPN profile. The circle on the button just forever-loads. I know the file is only a few KBs large, so what could be causing this?

I’ve succeeded in downloading the profile before, but have no idea how. The forever-loading has been a consistent problem since I got the box (in late 2019, I believe).

I figured it out. I logged in via Firefox, and was able to download my profile. I’m not sure what about Vivaldi was preventing the download, but crisis averted.
