VPN recommendations
VPN recommendations
I searched the board and it's apparently been a few years since we've discussed this. I'm looking for a new VPN service. Any out there that you all are using or would recommend?

Re: VPN recommendations
I've been using proXPN since 2016. Works very well. I grabbed a lifetime license for cheap when it went on sale.

Re: VPN recommendations
I did the same but it hasn't been working very well for me. Are you using their app or something?

Re: VPN recommendations
Windows App on my laptop and a VM I use for Torrents. Never used it on Android. Download speeds are good. There used to be a bit of DNS latency but I fixed that by setting up Firefox to use DNS-over-HTTPS which helped a lot.
Location makes a difference too. I generally use Toronto, Canada.
I easily get 2GB/s downloads.

Re: VPN recommendations
Strange. I use Toronto as well, as that used to be the best one for me.
I need to investigate this further.

Re: VPN recommendations
I also have the proxpn license but dont use it much since it suffers quite a bit speedwise for me too. I'll have to poke at it some more if Bob's is running well.
Re: VPN recommendations
I've found Toronto and Singapore servers worked well in the past. I'm gonna set it up on a fresh VM I just spun up.
Re: VPN recommendations
anyone using a router based VPN?
Re: VPN recommendations
I use my Edgerouter X for VPN. It's a basic L2TP IPSec VPN. My home upload is only 20Mbps, so performance isn't awesome, but it gets the job done for browsing and checking the home security cams while traveling.
Re: VPN recommendations
I mean, I host a VPN server on my pfsense router that I connect to when out and about and I want to keep data private. Not sure if that's what you are asking about.

Re: VPN recommendations
Followup: Seems like ProXPN is dead and gone. The servers started dropping out a few months ago, and now the licensing server is down and their main web page is gone.
So a month ago I got an annual subscription to ExpressVPN. It's seems reliable, VERY fast, connects quickly, and explicitly states it's Torrents friendly. Been very happy with it the past month. It's $99.95 a year.

Re: VPN recommendations
Hubby got an email from Cyber News saying these were the best VPN deals for Black Friday:
NordVPN
Surfshark
IPVanish
Atlas VPN
PureVPN
NORD was considered best out of them.
Any recommendations out of these listed, or other?,, trying to get good price as well,,.

Re: VPN recommendations
I've heard good things about NordVPN.
Still very happy with ExpressVPN.
