I guess I use nordvpn different than everyone else, and so I continue to wonder if nordvpn is the right solution for me.
I use debian on a few different hosts, and I use meshnet to connect between then.
One particular host has quite a bit of bandwidth, and so I get logged out quite often (I assume this is why I get logged out, I have no other idea why).
Logging into nord is simple enough when I’m at a computer, but when I’m only on my phone I can’t seem to:
- copy/paste the login callback url to my browser; though I’ve figured out a way to have it texted to me… not ideal, but good enough
- after I login on my phone, it refuses to let me get the callback url so that I can go back and paste it in the terminal.
I’ve tried the following:
- several different android browsers to see if I can find one to get the callback (each one redirects before I can copy/paste anything)
- Tried some command line browsers so that I can do the whole login process remotely. Even brow.sh doesn’t work. Apparently nordvpn doesn’t like this method of authenticating
The remaining option I seem to have is selenium: provide a url, 2fa token, username and password and do the login that way.
But if anyone has any better ideas, I’m all ears.
I assume I can’t use openvpn because I’m trying to do mesh at the same time.
