My vpn provider config starts from:

[Interface]
PrivateKey = hash
Address = 185.1.1.118/32
DNS = 8.8.8.8
Jc = 0
Jmin = 0
Jmax = 0
S1 = 0
S2 = 0
h1 = 1663911283
h2 = 1574863518
h3 = 1788955512
h4 = 1728567534

After sucessfull connect i dont have internet, in logs i see:

WARNING] Amnezia : Deferring startNetworkCheck; missing gateway/local address "" "185.1.1.118/32"

How fix that?

Same issue on Windows 11 25H2 (26200.7840)
AmneziaVPN 4.8.10.0 and 4.8.12.9 not work properly, in logs i see:
[WARNING] Amnezia : Deferring startNetworkCheck; missing gateway/local address ""...
Its sucessfull connect but there is no traffic.
Rolling back to version 4.8.7.2 solves the problem and everything works fine without any warnings in logs.

Please, fix this issue.

Guys, try disabling the "Kill Switch" and "Amnesia DNS" options (inside the client).

Does not work on Windows 25H2.
I disable the "Kill Switch" and "Amnesia DNS" options on version 4.8.12.9, but there is still no traffic.
Only rollback to version 4.8.7.2 works perfectly.

UPD: VLESS works fine on all version, even with Kill Switch running. Wireguard works only on version 4.8.7.2 and below =(
I think that traffic masking in the WireGuard protocol does not work in my case on versions higher than 4.8.7.2.
Because WireGuard works on all versions in Russia when there is no traffic filtering. However, when filtering traffic to a WireGuard server outside of Russia, only version 4.8.7.2 and lower with the WireGuard protocol works.
I am using a standard wireguard server in ubuntu 24.04.

I'm staying on version 4.8.7.2, there everything works perfectly!
