Hi Apologies if this has been answered,and i couldnt find the solution. The problem i am having is i am unable to start surfshark on my Zgemma box. I have followed the guide (surfshark website), and everything seems to have installed as guide says, but i cannot start it on the box. Menu-system-setup-network-openvpn. Pressing the green button will not start it. I have tried disabling autostart but makes no difference. Anyone here able to point me in the right direction , or offer any solutions/suggestions. i would greatly appreciate that,as i have been googling for fix since yesterday. I have posted a screenshot of what i mean.
Thank You

Hi , Thanks Yes i did attempt dsayers guide at the start, but both the scripts (my private and generator ) came back with "no such file or directory" in terminal, which is the reason i ended up using the surfsharf guide
 
You can just use

Code: 
opkg install https://github.com/davesayers2014/OpenVPN/blob/master/enigma2-plugin-extensions-vpnmanager_1.1.3_all.ipk?raw=true

Download surfshark files from here
Code: 
https://account.surfshark.com/api/v1/server/configurations

Create a folder called on HDD called surfsharkvpn and put all configs in there

Restart box

Menu, plugins VPN manager on VPN manager press menu

Set all config in one folder yes
Save directory hdd/surfsharkvpn

Add username and password then exit and you should be able to see the countries to select

Hi thank You for the script! I have got the vpnmanager installed. I am not clear on couple of things.
1) Do i unzip/extract the config files from sshark in the new folder , or does the zip file go as it is
2)I am not sure where the new folder (surfsharkvpn)with the conf files should go. (etc/ ?)
Thank you for your time!

Hi
Got Surfshark too and followed the above. But do not understand the following.
"Add username and password then exit and you should be able to see the countries to select "

Where do I put the user/passwd?
Thanks
