VPN

[BRUN]

Does anyone use one ?

Which give the best speeds to a UK user ?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

I use VyprVPN at the moment.

Speeds are normally about 2-3Mbps I think.

I'd really like a cheap 100Mpbs one though.

 

[BRUN]

Who is your normal provider ?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Virgin

 

[BRUN]

is that connection speed doing a speedtest or is that your usual download speeds ?

 

[BatFastard]

I use Mullvad. Can pay by bitcoin to stay anonymous and can choose servers in Sweden, London, Holland and Germany.

 

[BRUN]

what are your download speeds like ?

 

[BatFastard]

Probably get about 20mbps of my 30mbps connection when I use it.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

is that connection speed doing a speedtest or is that your usual download speeds ?

That's speedtest yes, and I meant 20-30Mbps.

 

[BRUN]

Just tried anonymizer as they have a 14 day free trial but the speed drop is massive

 

[BRUN]

Dan what connection do you have from VM if your getting 20-30 from vypr, we have the 120mb and I'm wondering by how much it will drop

 

[BRUN]

Private Internet Access looks good at only $40 for the year, less than half the price of Vypr, anyone used it ?

 

[BRUN]

if anyone is interested ive gone with Private Internet Access and their is hardly any speed drop, recommended

http://www.justfreevpn.com/ the password changes daily so all you have to do is check back on website and update pass on connection. Completly free and accomodates for my 25mb connection

It has its uses in foreign country's where they block certain sites but I can't see the use in the UK?

 

[GazM]

VPN = American netflix :rasp:

Ive just started using VPN and signed upto Mullvad - Do you guys have your net always connected through the VPN or only when using restricted apps/sites?

Newsgroups with my current dire BT connection normally peaks at around 500KB/s. When I connect through a VPN (Private Internet Access) it can hit 800KB/s... win

I have it set to always come on with my MBP connected to a UK server.

strongvpn @ £55 a year.... found their speeds to be very good on a 120mb virgin connection I use for newsgroups. I have seen up to 60mb for newsgroups, but normally 30-40mb which isnt toooo bad, only need that when downloading in the evening to avoid virgins capping on that kind of traffic.

For netflix, just use unblock-us less hassle and only $4.99 a month.

Why pay anything? Just find a American DNS server...

 

[Torquetastic]

true true, just know unblock will always work, Getflix are even cheaper $1.99 a month lol

Why use a VPN if you can just use the tor browser bundle to stay anonymous ? Or do you use the tor browser with a VPN?

Brazzers access in the UAE?
