OpenVPN · R‑VPN · macOS

In the “Useful links” block, under macOS, click “Download OpenVPN Connect” — an archive with the OpenVPN Connect installer downloads (macOS 11 or later is required). Unzip it if your Mac has not done so, and open the .dmg image with a double click. It contains two installers: on a Mac with an Apple M chip (M1 or newer) run the one with “arm64” in its name, on an Intel Mac — the one with “x86_64”, and go through the setup. You can check your processor in the Apple menu → “About This Mac” (the “Chip” or “Processor” line).

After installing, OpenVPN Connect opens on the “Import Profile” → “FILE” tab. This is the window where the configuration file has to be dropped.

The dashboard has a “Download OpenVPN Certificate” block with the servers grouped by region. Open a region with its arrow and click the server you need — an .ovpn configuration file downloads. The login and password for the connection are on the same page, in the “Connection details” block.

Drag the downloaded .ovpn file into the “Import Profile” window (or press “BROWSE” and pick it manually). One profile is imported at a time — repeat for each server.

In the “Profiles” list flip the switch on the profile you need. The client asks for a login and a password — they are in the “Connection details” block of the dashboard; tick “Save password” so you do not have to type it every time.

The status changes to CONNECTED and traffic statistics appear — the connection is up. The same switch turns it off, and switching countries means picking another profile from the list.

To avoid picking servers blindly, use our Radar service — radar.rvpn.online: it shows which servers are up right now and how fast they respond (sign in with your VPN login and password).
