First I hope its ok to report this problem in English too!
When I configure the VPN via a ready to use config file from the VPN provider and start the VPN via the network-manager applet in KDE, the applet report a successful activation of the VPN connection.
But when you cross check your IP, your traffic is not going through the VPN, instead still using your origin IP.
I also installed the ProtonVPN apk package, same behavior.
On the Siduction xfce build, its the same.
Here is my journalctl log:

Does somebody has further advice?

Perfectly fine -- thanks for posting it!

Does your VPN provider allow/provide .ovpn files, I just use wireguard with sudo wg-quick up or down and path to required.ovpn file. I have several .ovpn files for the servers I use, although they also provide a single .ovpn file for the county you wish to use and it chooses the fastest.
You can also check your connection here https://ipleak.net/

Yes, Proton does provide "ready to use" *.ovpn configs to download and thats what I use!
It works on every other distribution, but not on siduction...

Solved via updates, I suppose :)
Thx

I dont understand why, it did work in my workplace. but at home I have the same behavior as before :(
I start the VPN, it activates successfully but when checking the IP, I am not protected by the VPN...
[EDIT] I am pretty sure it was a cookie left from my "home LAN" what gave me the impression that the VPN did work at my workplace

Its working and solved via updates! Thank you
