Windscribe_cli v2.11.11 status shows firewall off even after turning firewall to on instead of auto. #195

When disconnecting from a connection, the firewall status says off even if I have turned/set the firewall to ON instead of auto.

OS and app information: Ubuntu 24.04 and 24.10 Windscribe_cli v2.11.11

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: windscribe_cli login "username" "password" [2FA code] windscribe_cli firewall on windscribe_cli connect troll udp windscribe_cli status

Internet connectivity: available Login state: Logged in Firewall state: On Connect state: Connected: Troll - Station Protocol: UDP:443 Data usage: 1.0 GB / Unlimited windscribe_cli disconnect windscribe_cli status Internet connectivity: available Login state: Logged in Firewall state: Off Connect state: Disconnected Data usage: 1.0 GB / Unlimited

Expected behavior If the firewall is turned on, it should stay on regardless of being connected and should reflect that status properly.

I have also tried changing the firewall from AUTO to ON in my windscribe_cli.conf and it will just revert back to AUTO.

Thanks for the report. This is intentional, because your FirewallMode is set to Auto. If you want the Firewall to retain the state you set, please set it to Manual.

Closing since this appears to be a configuration error.
