I have some problems to connect to ProtonVPN. The first step was to import the .ovpn file into the network-manager ("import a saved vpn configuration"). I entered my openvpn credentials and so far so good.
Then it also gives a notification that the connection was succesful, but when I check my ip adress, 9 out of 10 times it still shows my ISP IP. Sometimes the ProtonVPN IP is displayed, but then my DNS is leaking.
But also something strange is happening, when the VPN connection is inactive / disabled the icon of the systray network manager is showing a vpn icon. When I hover my mouse it says "connected to the vpn".
So I tried a different approach: to connect via the terminal. Sometimes the output ends at sequence completed (which is ok). Sometimes the output is as follows:
