All of our VPS nodes have TUN/TAP support enabled. All you need to do is enable it on your VPS, which can be done using the below steps:

Select your VPS from the Services tab (screenshot)
Click on Login to SolusVM VPS Control Panel » (screenshot)
Click on the Settings tab under Controls
Click on the dropdown icon below TUN/TAP and select On (screenshot)

You’re all done. TUN/TAP support will now be enabled.

You can verify this by logging in to your VPS via SSH and running the below command, which indicates that it is working correctly.

"Very happy"

I've been using Ethernet Servers since 2014, and they’ve always provided excellent service. I have many shared hosting accounts with them, and for the past five months, I’ve also been using their managed dedicated servers. What really stands out is their support. George, who I respectfully call Sir, is always there when I need help. He’s very knowledgeable and professional, and his assistance has made a big difference for me. If you’re looking for affordable and reliable web hosting, I highly recommend Ethernet Servers. They’ve been great to work with, and I’m very happy with their service. Thanks for everything!

"Service is excellent"

The service is excellent. George went above and beyond. In this day and age, it is very nice to have a real person that I can deal with rather than a chatbot or some nameless/faceless tech support department as is often the case at other hosting providers. Highly recommended.
