AWG 3.1 · R‑VPN · Windows

AWG 3.1 needs AmneziaWG 3.1.0 or newer. Download the installer AmneziaWG-3.1-amd64.msi (Windows 10 and 11, 64-bit, Intel and AMD processors) and run it. For ARM computers (Snapdragon laptops, for example) take AmneziaWG-3.1-arm64.msi, for 32-bit Windows — AmneziaWG-3.1-x86.msi. All three are the official AmneziaWG 3.1.0 builds from the GitHub release page.

Older AmneziaWG (1.x–2.x) cannot open AWG 3.1 configs — install the new version over the old one. AWG 1.0 configs from the “AmneziaWG” tab keep working in the new version, and that tab stays in your dashboard. Windows 7 and routers (Keenetic, OpenWrt and others) do not support AWG 3.1 yet — keep using the “AmneziaWG” tab there.

AmneziaVPN 5.0.1.5 or newer (GitHub) works too. But with AdGuard, Proxifier or an antivirus that filters traffic, AmneziaVPN may show “connected” with no internet — use AmneziaWG in that case.

Open your dashboard and select the “AWG 3.1” technology — the button next to “AmneziaWG”. While AWG 3.1 is in beta, only beta testers see this button.

In the “Connect to server” block expand the region you need: North America, Europe, Asia & Middle East, exUSSR or South America. The closer the region, the lower the ping.

Press “Connect” under the flag you need — the server is activated and moves to the “Current connections” block. Activate several at once: one server is not enough, and switching between ready tunnels is faster than returning to the dashboard. Servers on the “AWG 3.1” tab are activated separately from the “AmneziaWG” tab.

Every activated server has a “Config file” button — it downloads the configuration file for Windows and macOS (the “QR-Code” button next to it is for phones). Download the files for every server you activated.

AWG 3.1 files are named like mad_awg3_1.conf: the “_awg3_” part tells them apart from the old ones, and they will not replace your AmneziaWG tunnels. Configs from the “AmneziaWG” tab do not work with AWG 3.1 servers, and vice versa.

Start AmneziaWG and click “Import tunnel(s) from file”. In the dialog pick the configuration files you downloaded — you can select them all at once. The tunnels appear in the list on the left. If AmneziaWG rejects the file with “Invalid key for [Interface] section”, the app is too old — install 3.1.0 (step 1).

In AmneziaVPN a server is added from the file: “+” → under “Other connection options” pick “File with connection settings” → the .conf file → “Connect”.

Pick the tunnel you need in the list on the left and press “Activate”. The status changes to Active — the connection is up. Disconnecting and switching to another country happens with the same button (“Deactivate”) on the selected tunnel.

AWG 3.1 is in beta. If the tunnel is on but websites do not open, try another server. If none works, switch back to the “AmneziaWG” tab for now and tell our support which server and which app (with its version) you used.
