This guide will show you how to connect using Shadowsocks with v2ray and the Mullvad app.

What this guide covers

Using Windows

Requirements

Download and install:

Download:

  1. Unzip the Shadowsocks-4.4.1.0.zip file.
  2. Right click on the “v2ray-plugin-windows-amd64-v1.3.2.tar.gz” file and extract it with 7-Zip. Right click on the extracted .tar file and extract it with 7-Zip also.
  3. Move the extracted file (v2ray-plugin_windows_amd64.exe) to the Shadowsocks folder.
  4. Start the Shadowsocks app. Enter the information from the screenshot below and click on Apply. Shadowsocks runs in the Windows taskbar tray and connects automatically.

    Ignore some of the settings in the screenshot above and use the following settings:
    Server IP: 185.65.135.115
    Server Port: 1300
    Password: mullvad
    Encryption: chacha20-ietf-poly1305
    Plugin Program: v2ray-plugin_windows_amd64.exe
    Plugin Options: mode=quic;host=se-sto-br-001.relays.mullvad.net
    Proxy Port: 1080

  5. Go to the Mullvad app settings > Split tunneling and click on the button “Find another app” in the bottom. Browse to the location of the Shadowsocks app (in the Downloads folder) and select Shadowsocks.exe and click on Add.

  6. Open the Command Prompt and run the following commands:

    mullvad bridge set custom set socks5 local 1080 185.65.135.115 1300

mullvad relay set tunnel-protocol openvpn

mullvad bridge set state on

mullvad connect

Other ports

If it doesn't work then you can try to change the Server Port from 1300 in the Shadowsocks app and the mullvad bridge command. You can use any port between 1300 - 32999. Try port 53 and 443 for example.

Other bridge servers (quic)

To use other Mullvad bridge servers replace the Server IP and replace the hostname ("xx-xxx-br-001.relays.mullvad.net") from the Plugin Options field. Then use the same IP with the mullvad bridge command above. You can find more bridge servers in our Servers list.

Connect using websockets

In case it does not work then try to connect using websockets instead of quic. In the Shadowsocks app in the “Plugin Options” field change the text “mode=quic” to only “tls” (don’t change it to “mode=tls”). Edit the Server IP and use the same IP with the mullvad bridge command. Here is one you can use with websockets only:

  • 193.138.7.133 (fi-hel-br-101.relays.mullvad.net) 🇫🇮 TLS

Using Linux

Requirements

Download and install:

Using Ubuntu 22.04 or newer

Open the Terminal and run the following command to install the v2ray plugin for Shadowsocks:

sudo apt install shadowsocks-v2ray-plugin

Run the following Mullvad commands:

1. Set Mullvad to use a specific bridge server and port:

mullvad bridge set custom set socks5 local 1080 185.65.135.115 1300

2. Connect Shadowsocks outside the VPN:

mullvad-exclude ss-local -s 185.65.135.115 -p 1300 -l 1080 -k mullvad -m chacha20-ietf-poly1305 -b 127.0.0.1 --fast-open --no-delay --plugin ss-v2ray-plugin --plugin-opts "mode=quic;host=se-sto-br-001.relays.mullvad.net"

3. Set Mullvad to use OpenVPN protocol:

mullvad relay set tunnel-protocol openvpn

4. Set Mullvad to use Bridge mode:

mullvad bridge set state on

5. Connect Mullvad:

mullvad connect

Other ports

If it doesn't work then you can try to change the server port from 1300 in both command #1 and #2 above where it says "1300". You can use any port between 1300 - 32999. Try port 53 and 443 for example.

Other bridge servers (quic)

You can find more bridge servers in our Servers list. To use other Mullvad bridge servers replace the server IP in both command #1 and #2 above, and replace the hostname ("xx-xxx-br-001.relays.mullvad.net") in command #2.

Connect using websockets

In case it does not work then try to connect using websockets instead of quic. First change the server IP in command #1 above:

mullvad bridge set custom set socks5 local 1080 185.65.135.116 1300

Then use the following command instead of command #2 above which includes the websockets server IP and its hostname.

mullvad-exclude ss-local -s 185.65.135.116 -p 1300 -l 1080 -k mullvad -m chacha20-ietf-poly1305 -b 127.0.0.1 --fast-open --no-delay --plugin ss-v2ray-plugin --plugin-opts "tls;host=se-sto-br-001.relays.mullvad.net"

Using Ubuntu 20.04

If you have the older Ubuntu 20.04 which does not have the v2ray plugin package then you can download it (64-bit version) using the following commands.

wget https://github.com/shadowsocks/v2ray-plugin/releases/download/v1.3.2/v2ray-plugin-linux-amd64-v1.3.2.tar.gz

tar xvf v2ray-plugin-linux-amd64-v1.3.2.tar.gz

mv v2ray-plugin_linux_amd64 ss-v2ray-plugin

Using Fedora

First see the Ubuntu 20.04 instructions above to download the v2ray plugin.

You can install Shadowsocks using Snap. First install Snap:

sudo dnf install snapd

Then log out from Linux and log back in again. Then use the following commands to configure Snap, install Shadowsocks and add it (temporarily) to your command path:

sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
sudo snap install shadowsocks-rust
export PATH="$PATH:/var/lib/snapd/snap/shadowsocks-rust/661/bin/"

Run the following Mullvad commands:

1. Set Mullvad to use a specific bridge server and port:

mullvad bridge set custom set socks5 local 1080 185.65.135.115 1300

2. Connect Shadowsocks outside the VPN:

mullvad-exclude sslocal -s 185.65.135.115:1300 -k mullvad -m chacha20-ietf-poly1305 -b 127.0.0.1:1080 --t*****-fast-open --t*****-no-delay --plugin ./ss-v2ray-plugin --plugin-opts "mode=quic;host=se-sto-br-001.relays.mullvad.net"

3. Set Mullvad to use OpenVPN protocol:

mullvad relay set tunnel-protocol openvpn

4. Set Mullvad to use Bridge mode:

mullvad bridge set state on

5. Connect Mullvad:

mullvad connect

Other bridge servers (quic)

You can find more bridge servers in our Servers list. To use other Mullvad bridge servers replace the server IP in both command #1 and #2 above, and replace the hostname ("xx-xxx-br-001.relays.mullvad.net") in command #2.

Connect using websockets

In case it does not work then try to connect using websockets instead of quic. First change the server IP in command #1 above:

mullvad bridge set custom set socks5 local 1080 185.65.135.116 1300

Then use the following command instead of command #2 above which includes the websockets server IP and its hostname.

mullvad-exclude sslocal -s 185.65.135.116:1300 -k mullvad -m chacha20-ietf-poly1305 -b 127.0.0.1:1080 --t*****-fast-open --t*****-no-delay --plugin ./ss-v2ray-plugin --plugin-opts "tls;host=se-sto-br-001.relays.mullvad.net"
