Can anyone give me any feedback on how to setup privateinternetaccess on qubes.
I wrote to pia, and they didn't really give me much help on how to set this up.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I have PIA, I'd suggest just using the CLI, slog through it and pick
two geo locations you want. , like one in the US and one outside.
I used this :

Then the CLI stuff, it's a little tricky at a few points, and if it
fails, better just wipe the whole VM and start over, till its stable.
But, I also tried the Network Manager, and in the long term, it's just
more PITA, it gives you seemingly more Geolocations easiert with the
script, but its constantly going up and down, if you suspend your
Computer.
And just too time consuming, unless you MUST have many geo locations,
but even then
With the CLI just watch your in the correct dir when your doing
things, and your permissions , I suggest just copy and paste verbatim,
then one little mistake won't B0rk the whole attempt
once you get one working, it goes quicker the 2nd time, though, took me
a long time, to get 2 stable, But, then you'll never have to guess if
your VPN is up or not. As unlike the NManager, it won't work unless
it's up.
then, you need to make a launcher on the desktop to restart rc.local
after suspend, see the previous stuff Mr. Laprisse contributed
and then sometimes/often you'll have to manually right click execute
multiple times till its back up after suspend, but it's at least reliable
