Report a VPN Issue: Evidence and Privacy Checklist
Report a Kuaimiao VPN issue with clear timestamps, versions and comparison results. Use the template and review screenshots and logs for private information.
Describe what failed before you guess why
A connected indicator, a page that times out and a link lost after the phone switches networks are three separate problems. A report that says only "the VPN does not work" leaves the reader to check the device, the version and the network one by one. If you changed several settings at once without writing anything down, a working connection will not tell you which step helped.
Write "not tested" or "unknown" where that is the truth. On a work, school or otherwise managed device, follow the administrator's rules and do not alter policies yourself. This page helps you organise a report; it is not an automatic diagnostic tool and does not describe features that were not verified.
Six categories of evidence to record
Note the approximate incident time with its time zone, the operating system and the client version. Versions can be read from system information, the app settings or a confirmed download source; if you cannot find one, write that it is unconfirmed rather than reinstalling the software repeatedly.
Keep “app connected” separate from “website loaded.” Preserve the difference between a timeout, a certificate warning and an HTTP response such as 403. Note whether one service or all tested services fail, whether another device is affected, and whether an update, sleep or network change preceded the incident. Timing suggests a question; it does not prove the cause.
Make one small, controlled comparison
Save any unsent work and pick two sites you may access. Record the current state, disconnect normally and look at plain network access; only then consider reconnecting once. Whether a route can be changed depends on what the client actually offers, so do not assume a particular mode or button exists.
If it is convenient and permitted, repeat the same task on another network of your own and watch the mobile data cost. Change one condition at a time and write down the result. Do not clear the browser, reset the network and swap the client in the same attempt, and never disable security software, ignore certificate warnings or install unknown certificates to "prove" something.
Copy this blank report
Paste the template into your notes or into a support channel you have verified. The brackets are reminders for filling in, not documents you must upload; anything you did not test stays marked as not tested, and a draft does not reach anyone on its own.

Question you want support to confirm: __________A filled example, clearly labelled as an illustration
This example is fictional: "Around 20:15 Beijing time, a laptop on home Wi-Fi showed the client connected. Site A reported a connection timeout while site B worked. After disconnecting normally, site A still timed out; mobile data has not been tested. The problem started after the machine resumed from sleep, though the two cannot yet be linked." It is not a real Kuaimiao incident and not a performance or compatibility test.
The example keeps what was seen apart from why it might have happened. It does not turn one failing site into a network-wide fault, and it does not blame the driver just because the issue followed a resume. In your own report, replace the text with your own system, version and error wording; share a domain that carries business information only after confirming it is appropriate.
Share the minimum necessary information
Crop screenshots to the relevant error and state, and check the address bar, other tabs, notifications and open windows. Mask email addresses, phone numbers, account identifiers, QR codes, verification codes, subscription links, payment details and access tokens, and check query parameters before sharing a URL rather than hiding only the visible user name.
Logs and wireless reports can carry device and network identifiers along with business addresses that should stay private. Do not paste a full log into a public thread and never send a password or recovery code in chat. Explain the issue through the confirmed support entry, let the other side specify the files and time span they need, and if there is no safe upload channel, send a written summary first.
Stop safely and document the outcome
Pause when a certificate warning, an unexpected sign-in page or a request for a password or payment code appears. Do not remove network policies on a managed device, and when plain access is already broken, fix that first instead of continuing with route tests that have nothing to compare against.
After recovery, keep the original record and append when it returned, which single change was made and the result of the same task. If it recovered on its own after a wait, write "no setting was changed, cause unknown" rather than presenting it as a verified fix; the next occurrence can then be compared instead of starting from "it stopped working again".
