Hi, one way to test if the problem is with my computer is to install a vpn from another vpn provider.
I did and the new vpn app works fine. On top of this it has a GUI to select server and other settings,
all this directly in MX Linux.
For me that topic is closed. If someone is asking I will identify the new vpn provider.
Have a good day.

It's always a good attitude to share what works out of the box with MX Linux, perhaps also good to mention whether
it works with both init's (systemd and sysVinit).

Hi, The new vpn app is Proton VPN. There is a specific .deb install file for MX Linux. For now it works fine. A "Proton VPN" item has appeared in the "Internet" folder menu. This is a GUI to select server and other settings, all this directly in MX Linux.
I don't have any relation, business or otherwise, with Proton VPN.
Thanks to all for their help and have a good day.

Is it working with systemd and/or sysVinit?
I found several installation methods for it and the instructions did not lead to all of them, including the MX Linux method - although the MX Linux deb install does seem specific and therefore the correct one. I initially received many frequent errors maybe close to a year ago now, I've received dozens of upgrades since then and it has gotten MUCH BETTER although yesterday a password manager stated that I could login from Germany and it wasn't set to Germany.
Just FYI.

Hi, all the install procedure and first tests of Proton VPN were done under systemd.
Next time I reboot the computer I could try to use Proton VPN under sysVinit
but I won't reboot just to test Proton VPN/sysVinit.
Proton VPN was installed from their install .deb file downloaded from their website.
I used Proton VPN for a few days now and everything goes as supposed to.
