There are no "Best free VPN". Free VPN doesn't offer premium server. Anyway even if it excellent right now doesn't mean it will continue be as good.Most VPN service come with compromise. Pick the one that suite your budget. And most important is not to subscribe for long term before you give it a try. Most VPN offer 7 days money back guarantee so use it to test their service. If the VPN you're interested doesn't offer trial or money back guarantee just subscribe for 1 month with a more expensive price. Give it a try before you totally commit to their service. Best regard.

I subscribed for a free VPN account from FinchVPN on 1st May.
It gave me a 3GB quota per month for as long as I do not upgrade to a paid account. There are only 3 free VPN servers to choose from, but all of them are very slow. Will upgrading to a paid account be entitled to connecting to fast premium VPN servers? ![]() |

Its not free, I paid for premium, their top priority is user privacy, they never logging and record any user activity.

I use Betternet.
It is free for life with unlimited data and blazingly fast VPN speeds. It also allows P2P without throttling. |

So i'm asking which VPN is the best for P2P ? an honest opinion would be to look for an alternative to Maxis instead of looking for a VPN. bus still... also, the more you read on torrent vpn the more you realize there is no "best" bet. just the "right" bet. so whatever floats your boat is the right option, one you should look for.It seems like Maxis block everything as a rule of thumb, ensure these things before you sign up for something 1. no of servers in that particular region you're trying to connect to, the more the better 2. encryption. this is essential because of obvious reasons 3. speed. it's okay to lose a little speed in the process of encrypting and securing your torrent. perfectly normal. but if it's too low the downloading becomes impossible, then that's a red flag. 4. most importantly, go through your provider's policies over their policy page. the last thing you want is to pay to be ratted out. |

what is the best VPN? It should be the one manage by yourself.
For me, I can get 40++Mbps speedtest results for unifi 50Mbps line with VPS in Singapore. Many good VPN service provider only provide limited VPN services, actually you can do more than that with a VPS if you know how to manage it |

The unlimited speed offered to ensure your downloading speed is not capped and fully supports Mac, Linux, iOS, Android, and Windows.It seems like Maxis block everything |

When choosing a vpn one should research thoroughly before investing in a service. the service should be worthy to pay an amount and get the service that is promised for, i go to all review site that deeply describes the service, one of my go-to place https://www.bestvpn.co/ where I find comprehensive guides and in-depth reviews for mostly all vpn service.

You should never use free VPNs they are a threat to your online privacy as they have access to all your data which is being transmitted using their network and you are trusting them. Using No VPN is better than using a free VPN as you do not have their background info. You can check https://switchvpn.net , they offer 3-day free trial, you dont need any credit card to sign up.

Nordvpn have live chat to solve customer problem.For stable connection, I suggest to use openvpn udp, download openvpn configuration file and install openvpn client software to use it. Or u can try IPSec that window already have build in software. For normal surfing activity, chrome or Firefox extension is very handy tool. If u need further details how to setup, then you can google āhow to install openvpn/IPSec for Windows 10/7 nordvpnā, there are many tutorials available on official website. |

For P2P sharing internet speed matters a lot, further most of the VPN's slow down the internet speed. I have been using FastestVPN for the same purpose luckily this VPN has no such issues it works very well and its speed is better than other VPN's. I would recommend you to give it a try as they have also 7 days money back policy, so if you will have a problem you can refund your money.

Their are many VPNs out there and it's not easy to compare them, but you can try this USA VPN Platform https://www.usavpn.com to find out which VPN is a perfect fit for you. The VPNs which are listed on this page which I have mentioned, also are useful for p2p.

I recently started to use BolehVPN. Cheap and currently testing them for about a week. So far I satisfied with the performance. Well, different people have different opinion. I would suggest TS to read few reviews from users and at reddit as well before opting a suitable VPN for your need.

QUOTE(Anime4000 @ Jul 20 2018, 05:03 PM) Not sure about vpngate.Own build vpn server is good if u hardly use vpn. For long term usage, commercial vpn is much more cheaper and have thousands of servers for various purpose. We need various locations vpn for different purposes, such as P2P, home country ip, Netflix, change ip to enjoy cheaper products, and many others. Unless u are really good at networking, bypass firewall can be difficult with own build vpn. Commercial vpn also have many protocols for u to bypass firewall. |

For those who use Express VPN USA server on their unifi/maxis fibre. What's the usual ping like? I'm using digi infinite. While the speed with vpn is generally acceptable at around 10mbs, ping is very high at 250ms.
If the ping with maxis/unifi is less than 100 with express vpn USA server. I am thinking of changing to maxis/unifi fibre. This post has been edited by Mr Gray: Jul 22 2018, 10:40 PM |

I use PIA, although in the last day or so it's been going off & on, but compared to ALL the other VPNs I tried, this is by far the best. I haven't had any problem with downloading torrents, with all of the options (also having 5 devices connected at the same time). It is indeed one of the fastest vpn service around. I'm pretty happy with it so far! I live in Australia and was pretty happy to see that they have a sydney and a melbourne server. I have been able to utilize almost my full 30 megabits, getting around 25-ish over torrents during peak times.

I just got Surf Shark's subscription as I found promo code in the internet. Speed is quite stable as it is quite new provider. I mainly use it for Netflix, as it is optimised for fast video content delivery so the quility is quite good tho.

Hi all, i am new to VPN.
1) Can we use 1 subscription over multiple devices (mix of IOS, Android and Microsoft) assuming the subscription allows multiple concurrent login? 2) Is multiple concurrent login a standard feature of all VPN? 3) Can in use the VPN on my router rather than individual devices? 4) Any PureVPN user here that can comment on the quality of their services (e.g. lost of connection, drop in speed etc..) Thanks. |

Yes, I am using the said vpn, overall its a good vpn with a lot of good features, but when it comes to speed its a choker sometimes. Not going to lie about it. Purevpn review list all the features, user generated comments from reddit and twitter. Overall, I'd rate it 7/10 the only bad experience is with speed IMO. |

I have used IP Vanish, Buffered, Astrill, but the best ever I used and still using is the NordVPN. It does the job for me and also is the fastest vpn service.I have ever come across. I would rate the service 8.5/10 good servers, let me access Netflix libraries, access streaming channels like BBC iPlayer and what not. Most of the time I am working on a public wifi and with NordVPN I have a sense of security at all times. This post has been edited by graceinc: Aug 26 2019, 03:30 PM |

Latest NordVPN servers update:
Total : 4922 servers across 62 countries Malaysia: 6 servers Singapore: 62 servers (fastest speed) Cyber security awareness in Malaysia is still very low and not many peoples think it is necessary unless he/she is tech savvy. (what do u think?) However, it is very useful when u access public wifi and travel to oversea. I have friends go to UAE and Saudi, they not even can use whatapps voice call (dont ask me why, it is local government law) to communicate with friends and family. After using VPN, then they can make a voice call with whatapps and save money on VOIP (BTW, wechat out is extremely useful and cheap when travel oversea but want to call back to Malaysia or contact local persons). Please PM me if u are willing to give Nordvpn a try, check my signature for more info. |

QUOTE(KTCY @ Oct 6 2018, 04:32 PM) I honestly would not use a free VPN ever. You need to ask yourself why anyone would offer a free VPN service. Running a VPN involves hundreds of high-speed servers which are extremely expensive to buy and then later on maintain. So how do these people and companies make money if they offer free services?One possibility could be that they intercept all your data and sell them for advertising agencies and corporations. This is most likely happening with most free VPNs. Then there is also he possibility that they use the intercepted data to hack your online accounts such as social media profiles and perhaps even online banking. There were some free VPNs that have been found to run botnets on people's computers and devices. And there is also a very realistic possibility that many free VPNs are funded and secretly owned by various governments such as China or Russia in order to intercept people's online communications. This topic is further elaborated here. I would never use a free VPN no matter what. Stick to the proven to be safe premium VPNs that are not forced to intercept and sell people's data in order to make money. Paying $10 a month for a good VPN is really not that much.Price is not an excuse anymore. |

You can always get a free trial with BolehVPN and see how it is. It is the oldest locally running vpn provider and operates one of the better vpn services out there.

You just can't go wrong with NordVPN since it has dedicated P2P servers. I heavily download torrents and seldom I had issues with servers or my downloading speeds go down by a big margin. I get to know about this feature from a review and made my choice instantly.

QUOTE(davidmichaels @ Nov 7 2018, 11:17 AM) I agree with the top comment that speed is really an essential part for measuring any vpn connection performance. I have been using surf shark vpn from last few months and to my surprise it has been performing amazingly good. It has great speed, no connection error, excellent connectivity. Cherry on top they have launched a new dale with the name surfshark vpn black friday deal, which offers monthly price of $1.99. I think its the cheapest in this year. People should check this vpn out also. I have 100Mbps Unifi.Connecting to the fastest server available, with my VPN and Asus AC68U router, I can get 90 Mbps. Is that good or bad? |

QUOTE(nuke13 @ Nov 15 2018, 02:45 PM) Sorry. Noob question. Can VPN make free video streaming sources faster? Like can stream videos without buffering It depends on how the video steaming server set their firewall and ur ISP.Some video load slow because of the ISP have limit number of connections for ur devices. With VPN ur device only create a connection to vpn server, thus can bypass the limit and stream videos faster. PM me if u interested with Nordvpn. Thanks. |

QUOTE(KKTECHHUB @ Nov 15 2018, 06:33 PM) Checked and not available for Apple TV os. U need to do it on router level. Or get a mini router for this purpose. I spent some time googling around and found out apple tv can use smart dns to bypass region lock. There are a few providers giving free trials so I'm currently using unlocator free 7 days dns. Once expired will change to other providers. Then will decide which one being the best yet the cheapest. |

Anyway, it depends on what u want to achieve, find a product that suit u is more important. |

Good VPN provides a high speed and a big variety of different countries to connect to, mine gives me this opportunity. I also want to be secure and to keep my data private. NordVPN and ExpressVPN are also a good option but I already choose mine. Yes, bite the bullet and get a paid VPN. You can have one paid for about ~RM 10 - 12 per month and it can be used for 5 or 6 devices. Share among your friend or your family and it work out to be peanut per device per month.If you need it to watch Netflix, free VPN is good but it would be reloading your video several times per view. I advice paid VPN in any case, it's much better not only for watching but for your nerves. |

If the company is based in any of the 14 eyes countries, the provider is not safe. For an example, if the provider is based in the UK and the authorities asked them for your information, they would need to cooperate. |

QUOTE(touristking @ Oct 12 2017, 10:55 AM) I am not sure what is "proxy" setting. What purpose do you use VPN? Just for watch android box (bypass georestriction)?I set mine on the AC68U router itself. Openvpn. AES256. I have also tried Singapore/Malaysia/Manila and the best result was 18 mbps on the unifi 50 mbps. That would be 35%. Is that considered good or bad vpn? Don't use openvpn. Use L2TP/PPTP. OpenVPN is the maximum security if you want to be anonymous and avoid tracing. It encrypt all your traffic. that's why make your connection slow. L2TP/PPTP is enough to unblock georestriction. Try this and you will see your speed much improved. But still the max speed depends on which server you connect to. i'm connecting to US server can get max 150Mbps on my 800MBps connection. If connect to SG/MY server almost full speed. |

QUOTE(Dillan12 @ Jan 17 2019, 03:54 AM) Yeah, they do. To be honest, the download speed did surprise me when I first tried it, the drop is barely noticeable. The speed is horrible for P2P for Surfshark if you connect to non US VPN. It will route your traffic to Netherland, according to Surfshark customer service when I noticed my download speed never beyond 1 Mbps and my IP show I am using Netherland IP. |

The only reason I purchased a VPN is to unblock Geo restricted content online. I use ivacy vpn to Unblock Netflix and Stream Netflix US form Canada.

If you're travelling to Middle East or China, get Cisco Express VPN from lazada.com.my (look for Cisco Express VPN), will work well.

I don't recommend any VPN companies that are popular.
This is the one I use. It's highly regarded as they are at the forefront in terms of technical improvements. They support WIREGUARD. https://vpn.ac/ Personally, while in China, ExpressVPN failed me on many occasions. |

Hi, There is a lot of VPN providers and like any product, you get what you pay for. So I believe there are many factors should be taken into consideration before buying a VPN, such as security: 1- Privacy 2- Payment Methods 3- Security 4- Subscription 5- Advertisements the following article helps me to make my decision Factors to Consider Before Buying a VPN |

For streaming and NEtflix and even China access I think the newbie on the block (Surfshark) is quite good. Fast too. However, it hasn't really been on the market that long.

Do not expect you get full speed when using VPN, VPN means to encrypt and decrypt the traffic and thus speed will be affected. |

Done my own research before I subscribed to SurfShark VPN. Here is my sharing in case anyone is looking for a vpn.
My choice of vpn are down to SurfShark and Nord vpn. Both are good in terms of security features, no logging policy, number of servers and price. But SurfShark is cheaper (2 years for 47.76USD, ie 1.99USD per month) as compare to Nordvpn (3 years, 2.99USD per month). Expressvpn is good in these areas as well but too expensive. In terms of speed, SurfShark is good but inconsistent. For example, if without connecting to vpn my connection speed is about 300mbps, connecting to Singapore server sometimes is as fast as 17 ping, 204mbps (down), 26 (up), sometimes it is as slow as 190 ping, 6mbps (down), 3mbps (up). This is using default settings to allow the app to choose connection protocol. After I switched to use IKEv2 protocol, the download speed are better : 217mbps for connecting to Singapore server, 106mbps for Hong Kong, 169mbps for Japan, 158mbps for London, 87mbps for Dallas USA. These are numbers from speed test that I have done. Using IKEv2 protocol are much faster than openvpn (tcp), openvpn (udp) because openvpn have more payload. Also, do not use the Automatic option as it may chooses to use openvpn. I was thinking to cancel the subscription and get nordvpn but after reading some articles on the speed of nordvpn, I decided not to do it. What I read was nordvpn speed is a bit better than surfshark but in terms of price, it's a big difference to me . Also, surfshark has some feature that I like, like you can choose application, website or ip address to bypass vpn. This is good if you want to connect to bank's website or local website (like assteruk on the go) while still connecting to foreign server in vpn. I do not have netflix but reviews in www.thebestvpn.com stated that netflix allow access on 6 out of 6 tests done on surfshark whereas netflix allow access on 5 of 6 tests done on nordvpn. I do not affiliated to surfshark, just talking about my findings. Just do your own research and decide what suit you best. And here is my research website, enjoy! thebestvpn.com techradar.com tomsguide.com pcmag.com cnet.com |

QUOTE(jusbella @ Sep 13 2019, 11:07 PM) No experience using PIA, all I know is from what I have read before: all articles says PIA speed is fast, if not the fastest. This is because industry standard uses 256-bit encryption whereas PIA default settings uses 128-bit encryption, which makes the payload less hence faster. It is suited for those who wants to do torrent or streaming. Netflix wise you need to double check because some article says it can't gain netflix access from some of the PIA servers. Price is more expensive than surfshark and nordvpn, i think is about 3USD++ per month for 2 years contract. The rest you need to read through those articles, like the company is in USA, hence authority can request user data. |

One of the VPN I'd recommend is TorGuard which was designed specifically for P2P file sharing users.
You can read up on a detailed review on this VPN: Pros and Cons of TorGuard |

Hi all,
Hope some kind soul here can advise. I just subscribed NordVPN and tried out Netflix US region. It worked on my laptop but strangely not on my Nvidia Shield TV. I keep getting the infamous error message "unblocked/proxy used". I tried setting it on my Asus router per their instructions, same problem. Anyone faced similar issue before?

I am using vpn unlimited for netflix or cbs or hulu or anything US streaming, it works flawlessly
For streaming, this is probably the cheapest vpn there is in the market. Use it on three laptops 4 mobile include both ios and Android, never failed me. This post has been edited by wanttobuylaptop: Nov 13 2019, 12:43 AM |

Dear guys, I want to set up 2 router to link together, 1 using VPN all the time, another as normal web surfing.
I have one original Maxis router - Archer c5v, and another TP link WR841HP. Can anyone teach me how to link together and setup the VPN on the tp link WR841HP router? I have searched online and tried for 2 days, still cannot figure out how. Please please please. |

When you people using VPN, how much does the speed drops to?
Presently I am using one. Without VPN, speed can be as high as 500 Mbps. With VPN, it drops to below 50 Mbps. |

For me I just want privacy protection, that why I getting half of the speed or less because I need to encrypt my traffic/data to the server, then from server need to decrypt traffic/data, then the data need to send to destination to get feedback to server, then server need to encrypt back the traffic/data to ur destination, that why its depend where the server located, the further the server is the slower traffic it will be. |

I know VPN will slow down speed. But speed reduction of 90% seems excessive to me. This is on Unifi Home. But on Unifi Biz on another location, without VPN speed is 40 mbps. With VPN is 30 Mbps. May be Biz line is better? |

Both VPN on Unifi Home and Biz are using the same brand VPN and both connecting to the fastest server. Yet the difference is huge. The only difference is, the one giving me lower speed is a newer PC. Couldn't figure it out. |

I'm using Express VPN. 10% bandwidth loss on speedtest. P2P I sense no throttling as I can hit as high as non VPN connection speed.
Expensive yes, I've tried Nord but they have almost 20% bandwidth loss which is not acceptable on my 100mbps line. |

If I want to build my own L2TP VPN server - for 24/7 use through B618 router modem, which LOCAL hosting provider is suitable?
Not so much about censorship, but more on attempting to get a fixed IP anchored in the remote VPN server. So that I can come back into my home. I hate it that when I use remote VPN egress point, Google appears in Cyrillic, Deutsch, Arabic, .... DiGi Infinite 150. |

So is there a general consensus on the best VPN? talking bout speed/latency/privacy and of course bypassing VPN block. I'm using ProtonVPN currently, free acc with a week premium trial. Similar speed but unfortunately it can't bypass VPN block detection.

I have only used ZoogVPN so far. I think the most important aspect in choosing a VPN is that it must be trustworthy. So far, I havenāt heard any reports of data leaks from that VPN so I think itās good.

Hi All, I currently looking to share ExpressVPN for Netflix. RM10 per month for a year subscription per person (max 2 slots). No profit made just pure sharing. This for the current expressvpn deal.

Do not simply share accounts with unknown people unless you're looking for trouble.
They could use it for illegal activities, and if authorities start tracing back to your VPN which would MOST LIKELY give in due to the fact they want to keep their operation licenses, they'll reveal the account's logs and the first suspect is always the account owner. That is why you should always buy your VPN accounts with crypto currencies or vouchers.It's highly advisable rather than using debit cards or online banking which links back to your name. Also each account depending on its price allows 2,5 or 10 simultaneous logins(ip addresses) which some people oversell it to more than allowed. If one of your shared members shares it elsewhere, your account will be locked out and detected for misused causing unnecessary trouble for you to beg your VPN provider to release your account again. |

QUOTE(calvin @ Apr 29 2020, 11:39 AM) The number of leaked NordVPN on a daily basis turns me off .. 10K Nord VPN premium accountsFor now Iād rather stay with ExpressVPN , mullvad (for privacy) , surfshark (affordability) Just Google it. This so called number 1 rated VPN is now probably running a ponzi scheme and after having sold thousands of 3 years validity accounts, they all suddenly got leaked. If suddenly the go out of business and missing overnight, GG to all their subscribers. |

I'm currently using TorGuard VPN Streaming Bundle - I get 2 static IPs servers (Choose between US, UK, Japan etc) - works flawlessly with Netflix, Amazon Prime and HBO Max.
I'm getting around 100Mbps connected to VPN server, my internet speed is 300Mbps. Decent enough for 4K streaming. I'm currently paying around $30.99 for 6 months. There's a lot of promo codes offering around 50% discount so you actually pay lesser than what was advertised. |

I'm going to let you think why BIGGEST and LOUDEST in the room are always the the giveaways. ExpressVPN Really Based in Hong Kong? https://vpnscam.com/expressvpn-really-based-in-hong-kong/ QUOTE It's alleged to be owned by a Chinese parent company named Chengbao Ltd. Chengbao Ltd is operating ExpressVPN from itās main HQ offices in AXA Centre, Wan Chai HK, but ExpressVPN denies this. Top VPNs Secretly Owned by Chinese Firms https://www.computerweekly.com/news/2524662...y-Chinese-firms QUOTE Almost a third (30%) of the worldās top virtual private network (VPN) providers are secretly owned by six Chinese companies, according to a study by privacy and security research firm VPNpro. Isn't it funny that a country that bans the use of VPNs in its own country actually among the BIGGEST the world's VPN companies? The study shows that the top 97 VPNs are run by just 23 parent companies, many of which are based in countries with lax privacy laws. Six of these companies are based in China and collectively offer 29 VPN services, but in many cases, information on the parent company is hidden to consumers. The AIM and MOTIVE is pretty much clear cut: SPYING on the masses. Is NordVPN a Honeypot? https://vpnscam.com/is-nordvpn-a-honeypot/ QUOTE Do you know what a honeypot is? Well, essentially a honeypot is a service or app that looks to be legitimate, but is actually isolated and monitored without knowledge of the visitors. The āproxyā service seems to have some inherent value to the visitor, but the visitorās information is actually being taken. Think of a honeypot as a āstingā operation. How can a VPN company get this big if it doesn't have big cables and money? Not unless it has links with big brother's intelligence agencies, crime lords and "eagles"? Best you do some good reading and decide for your own self if all these made any sense. This post has been edited by Candy12: Oct 1 2020, 03:06 PM |

How can a VPN company get this big if it doesn't have big cables, connections to big brother's intelligence agencies and money?
1) Of course it needs a BIG Company to Back it Up. You can't be a promoting freedom and at the same time a SJW walking into some big brother state owned international TIER-1 IP transit carriers company(IBM Softlayer, Level 3, HE) and say hey let's sign a deal to allow my private servers to run on your network responsibility free? 2) Tailor the service and advertise directly to dark markets they wish to gain insight on. One way would be to offer direct Tor over VPN connections through the VPN provider and accept bitcoin. NordVPN does both of these things. 3) No intelligence agency or a world class Tier-1 internet carrier company would go through the risk and hassle of partnering with a VPN without first ensuring there would be massive advertisement funding. A true honeypot would continue spending maximum about of marketing dollars to convince people it was the best and most secure. 4) The VPN just needs to coordinate with intelligence agencies on frequent disconnections and ākill switchā features that do not work and purposely leak your IP address. VERDICT: If any VPN provider has these 4 checkmarks/criterias MET it is already a HONEYPOT. Not GOOD. A few more points for you to consider: Who is London Trust Media which founded PIA? Is PIA a "honeypot"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Internet_Access https://www.reddit.com/r/VPN/comments/dz834...ome_to_its_end/ https://www.reddit.com/r/VPNTorrents/commen...oxy_to_torrent/ |

BolehVPN is home grown and was a pioneer in personal vpn and is at par with most other providers in terms of services. It is currently the only one able to provide access to Astro Go, if you are overseas. It is definitely one of the oldest VPN providers around, 15 years old and still reliable as ever.

That is a dangerous idea to consider. The VPN provider could be indirectly owned with your local government having participation stakes in it. Should you come to a disagreement with your local authorities or conflict, you'd be the first to be exposed and sought after with their own infrastructures.My earlier article highlighted and brought up conditions and hints to look out for in shady VPN providers. They were created by corrupt to conceal their own crypto activities for their own privacy needs. What if they were involved in your country's politics and rule? Then you stepped on the wrong foot accidentally with your comments. Won't you be playing with fire on dangerous grounds? |

Bolehvpn survives mostly from word of mouth and loyal users who stayed on after all this while. You can't take those words and promises for granted bro. The requirements for VPN provider to gain access and rent rackspaces for their VPN servers with a data centre or teaming up with Tier-1 transit ISPs requires more than just money to make the deal. These major transit carriers and data centres are owned by powerful corporations having ties big brother/governments/intels.Just as how PIA once claimed that they only deal with bigtime Tier-1 carriers for hosting their serves to ensure that their servers are up to speed with enough capacity to handle their large customer base.Then again you might still run a small time VPN company with limited capacity off shared VPS servers. Many will still have doubts about your ability to keep up with your customers needs and if it falls short you'll receive lots of complains about slow speeds with your VPN servers. Also your routing paths and latency might not be able to match that of the big players. The best way is still to rent your own VPS and set up your own VPN service for personal use. You will have better control and privacy over it. My reason for using a VPN is to optimize my routing so that I can get the best latency results across all major continents to where I want to access. Of course I also want to max out my speed to wherever I connect to including major cities in Europe/West Coast USA and East Asia. |

What's the point then if if you want to be geolocation based in the country you chose but the server points elsewhere, the local services there will ban you from using them. No la, I think the administrator who configured the servers logged into his own Google account in the server caused a bad misconfiguration. There's a reason why the server ISP is locally based but somehow it got identified as some other country when you load Google/FB. Most of its users logging into them aren't locals?? jusbella liked this post

QUOTE(afif92 @ Feb 24 2021, 02:25 AM) For M247, still can get decent speed but the ping is very high. Before this, I remember that M247 when speedtest to VIEWQWEST SG only 50ms. Now it go to 137ms. Didn't knew that even with peering agreement with M247 with TM and TIME the latency to Singapore is still this bad (>130ms).I'm guessing something is very weird going on with these European providers who have PoPs in Asia playing tricks with their customers or our own local ISPs are intentionally throttling their customers. Not just M247 Infra Singapore suffers from high latency from Malaysia. Even Telia Singapore Carrier nodes are also affected very badly. When you have ping times >100ms to even Singapore Tier-1 carriers it's not something normal. Few possibilities: 1) These European ISPs are only PRIORITIZING traffic coming from Europe to access Asia's while the play dirty of blocking the OPPOSITE direction traffic heavily throttling traffic from Asia side going out to Europe the other WAY around. Thus you see pinging from Europe to Asia everything looks fine but from Asia side you trace back to Europe the latency becomes very high with packet losses. 2) Our local ISPs are INTENTIONALLY throttling consumers bandwidth/popular routing paths even when there's no known breakdown issue involved. This what we call "DOMESTIC TERRORISM". They do it to upsell their own premium services/business plans which promises solution to business users which desperately need the good routing paths back to their world HQs based in other continents. We've seen how cable cuts were mostly acts of vandalism in our country just to create extra jobs/opportunities for some people to gain from it. I've seen enough of these sort of dirty backstabbing games played in Malaysia.It's toxic! 3) So happen many are actually reading this forum and when they read that others recommend a certain server route to use, EVERYONE jumps on the same ship SINKING it! Which I doubt is this reason because M247 was all fine last year back in 2020 as well as 2019. It is one of the TOP EGRESS points and VPN server hosting provider in the world even before CDN77 took over them. Got moles from our local ISPs reading this forum wants to discourage Malaysians from using VPNs intentionally DDoS popular networks which are frequently mentioned? NordVPN, SurfShark, Windscribe, PIA, and AirVPN, most of their servers are on M247 and CDN77 networks with over 10G capacity ports.It's almost IMPOSSIBLE for them to get congested. GSL Networks have peering with TM, TIME and Maxis. It's an Australian company so many use it to achieve optimized route back to Australian servers even for gaming.

QUOTE(heLL_bOy @ Feb 24 2021, 04:16 PM) you still manage get almost full speed Not just with M247 which is a member of Equinix SG. maybe m247 change routing to viewquest. Other members which have exchange agreements with Equinix SG are also deprioritizing Maxis/TM routes with high latency. Another example is Telia Carrier Singapore which has a PoP via Equinix SG. snge-b1.telia.net I'm getting over 100ms too via Maxis. It's impossible like what the other forumer, Asellus said last time for Maxis to have congestion with Equinix SG. Maxis has the most available port capacity to Equinix SG among all the ISPs in Malaysia considering its size as an eyeball type ISP: Maxis and TM both has 200Gbps port @ Equinix SG TIME has only 100Gbps Global Transit(TIME's carrier company) only has 20Gbps Yet these European major carriers are denying access and de-prioritizing packets causing major spike in latency across the day. That's why I'm wondering where did it went wrong? Could it be either the 3 reasons mentioned in my previous post? |

One is optimize for incoming traffic from other region such as Europe trying to access content in Asia and the other is the outgoing route for Asian side to other regions such as Europe/US. I believe M247 is to serve customers which are from Europe trying to access Asian servers and contents not the other way around. For those in Asia wanting to use Singapore as transit to connect to Europe/US there's always an alternative server which is non M247. Maybe CDN77, GSL Networks, Digital Ocean or SG.gs? For me Maxis has peering with GSL Networks, and DO. It seems to connect well with CDN77 too via NTT America. So yeah M247 is not favorable to Maxis but there're lots of alternatives out there. |

Been thinking of switching from Mullvad to IVPN (mainly because they have a better interface and DNS level ad/tracker blocking on their iOS/iPadOS app), but this peering issue with M247 makes me hesitant.
At least on Mullvad, I can switch to one of the HKG/JPN (Leaseweb) or AU (Integrid) servers, or just use one of their owned 31173 servers in UK/EU region, but with IVPN, it seems to be just M247 servers for the Asian nodes. It's better this week, but between February to early March this year, SG-M247 was so bad it was unusable. This post has been edited by G-17: Mar 25 2021, 11:45 PM |

QUOTE(heLL_bOy @ Mar 26 2021, 09:54 AM) unifi (500). Will stick with Mullvad for now. At the moment I'm getting 50ms ping connected to Mullvad's owned 31173 servers in London, which is very low considering the distance, and the performance in terms of site loading times is so much better (probably cdn-peering related) compared to SG-M247. Overall, I think Mullvad performance was better before they inked the deal for Mozilla VPN to use their backend.This post has been edited by G-17: Mar 26 2021, 02:03 PM heLL_bOy liked this post

The latency issue has recovered for now only to be replaced by another problem. High random disconnections.At least on Mullvad, I can switch to one of the HKG/JPN (Leaseweb) or AU (Integrid) servers, or just use one of their owned 31173 servers in UK/EU region, but with IVPN, it seems to be just M247 servers for the Asian nodes. It's better this week, but between February to early March this year, SG-M247 was so bad it was unusable. It's not coincidental for a large network like M247 which claims to be one of the world's largest hosting infrastructure service provider with presence in almost every region to be taken down for months until now yet to be recovered. I've been tipped by an industry insider about this issue and the real reason behind it. Like you said the problem started in early February and it's not entirely due to content access restrictions but an ongoing clampdown of information due to military coup in one of the ASEAN member country. As you know M247 is a major Western based egress provider into Europe. Its headquartered in Manchester, UK and is used by many journalists, reporters and undercover individuals are equipped with VPN accounts using their server to correspond back to their European bases/press HQ offices. To recall, do you remember any events which coincided with the breakdown of M247-SG/HK/JP in the month of Feb 2021? It's not just them solely. Many ISPs are still disrupted with ping spike issues, bad routing paths into other regions and occasional random disconnections. It could happen to any popular VPS infra ISP network out there so thread this with caution. Try contacting your VPN provider to see if they have any workaround solution to this. I'm convinced now that some of our ISPs are secretly throttling our VPN connections from behind after trying out the solution suggested by the industry insider. G-17 liked this post

It seemed to be better on my cellular data (Celcom) network, so it was definitely a M247-to-TM issue for my case. Currently connected to SG-m247 at home again and performance seems stable (low ping, decent download speeds, no disconnections), although peering to certain CDNs still seems slow/throttled sometimes. From what I've heard, the reason many of these commercial VPN providers employ M247 is because; 1. Large network, so less hassle. Sign contract/paperwork with one provider and have access to many locations, as opposed to individually hunting for best providers in individual countries. 2. M247 (supposedly) don't do logging at hypervisor level if requested by customers. I fired up a WireGuard VPN instance (via Algo) on a DigitalOcean droplet (SG) today and performance is stellar. Easily saturates my connection speed, but that's only useful for basic privacy (hide my history from TM and protecting me on public wifi) and not really a wise option for anonymous P2P "Linux ISO" torrenting and whatnot. |

To avoid getting noticed, many underdogs have already kept their next generation servers from bring published openly on their public sites. They'll only offer access to these servers only by invitation or trusted customers complaining repeatedly about getting throttled if they're from some blacklisted country. Malaysia is somehow already in that list.Maybe you should ask politely for alternative routes with your VPN provider if they have any trial solutions? At first I thought they were just brushing off my complaints with standard excuses but after taking up their suggestion it turned out to be true. Connecting with PPTP/L2TP, my speeds with Maxis despite with SG servers close by my speed somehow was only capped to 4Mbps with extremely high ping rates. Using their new stealth customized solution, immediately like applied lubricant full speed even to servers as far away as Iceland and South Africa. Everything just pushes through without any slowdowns felt. I believe there's a silent war going on within our ISPs and datacentres now. |

@heLL_bOy & @Candy12 I just sent them traceroute dumps of my IP (while disconnected from their VPN) to their SG WireGuard (the protocol I use) servers. It seems a couple of other users in the region have had similar complaints. They said they'll get M247 to switch transit/peering providers on 2 of their SG WireGuard servers (out of total 4) to my ISP and told me to see if there's any improvement. They said they've done so in the past as well for SG. Current transit and peering capabilities for M247-SG servers are Telia, PCCW, China Mobile International & Tata Communications. Problem is, those traceroutes were done when performance recovered. I'll need to send another dump if/when performance degrades again. At the moment they can only offer M247 for SG. They (Mullvad) claim Leaseweb used to give headaches because of their (Leaseweb's) abuse system and nullrouting exit IPs due to DMCA issues, etc. Will wait and see how it goes.

QUOTE(G-17 @ Mar 31 2021, 01:51 AM) @heLL_bOy & @Candy12 The problem is TM upload the packet thru PCCW HK then to PCCW SG back to M247. But download packet from M247 are from Equinix SG back to TM which is not a balancing path.I just sent them traceroute dumps of my IP (while disconnected from their VPN) to their SG WireGuard (the protocol I use) servers. It seems a couple of other users in the region have had similar complaints. They said they'll get M247 to switch transit/peering providers on 2 of their SG WireGuard servers (out of total 4) to my ISP and told me to see if there's any improvement. They said they've done so in the past as well for SG. Current transit and peering capabilities for M247-SG servers are Telia, PCCW, China Mobile International & Tata Communications. Problem is, those traceroutes were done when performance recovered. I'll need to send another dump if/when performance degrades again. At the moment they can only offer M247 for SG. They (Mullvad) claim Leaseweb used to give headaches because of their (Leaseweb's) abuse system and nullrouting exit IPs due to DMCA issues, etc. Will wait and see how it goes. hope to see some improvement on M247, today i check that M247have added 10Gbps port to Equinix SG. is good for them use IP-transit other then Equinix peering due to M247 only having in total 20Gbps which previously only 10Gbps with Equinix which is insufficient at all. but still Leaseweb are better then M247 in my opinion in terms of routing if using around US and ASIA.

hi guys,
need your advice, i have a very basic understanding of VPN. I am using u-m@bile unlimited plan and recently i got asked to work from home. I do not have un1fi because i live alone/seldom at home previously. Dont intend to suscribe back un1fi again, thinking of cutting cost during this difficult period. I am downloading like 1kb/s per torrent only. If i can hit like 500kb/sec for overall throttling will be awesome enough for me. Which vpn should i use to avoid the trottling from u-m@bile? |

QUOTE(GuyM @ Jul 29 2021, 12:36 AM) For a more accurate reading, run another network monitoring app at the same time you run the speedtest. Since it's a company issued device you're probably restricted when it comes to installing applications, but I think your OS should have it's own. I assume yours is a Windows laptop, so probably somewhere in the task manager or system monitor (sorry, I don't use Windows) there should be a wifi/network tab. Get the reading for the interface your company VPN uses. |

Is SurfShark any good? I am looking for a VPN that
1- allows torrenting (and with no loss in speed) 2- allows me to set the 'Country' for the IP address 3- support multiple device (for the same package i.e. no need to buy diff package) |

QUOTE(danial9715 @ Sep 13 2021, 12:52 PM) Is any VPN recommended for to use to stream content from overseas? I can't seem to find one that works for me I use NordVPN but when my free trial is up I am planning on trying out some other ones on this list which might be better for streaming. I thought it could be useful for you too |

QUOTE(1tanmee @ Aug 14 2021, 07:19 PM) Is SurfShark any good? I am looking for a VPN that I use Surfshark as my main VPN..been using it for around three years now. Can torrent (but at speeds slower than without VPN), can choose country, can run on almost all devices with unlimited simultaneous connections.1- allows torrenting (and with no loss in speed) 2- allows me to set the 'Country' for the IP address 3- support multiple device (for the same package i.e. no need to buy diff package) So far, streaming Netflix is also ok, haven't encountered a region it cannot unblock yet. I prefer NordVPN, but it's more expensive than Surfshark, and the performance is the same..just that I feel NordVPN's app quality is a bit better.

Even with NordVPN calling itself the best VPN out there, the most reliable number 1 rated VPN charging a premium.So far, streaming Netflix is also ok, haven't encountered a region it cannot unblock yet.

I checked their Tier-1 server hosting providers such as GSL Networks and Gigabit Hosting Sdn. Bhd. which are peering with surveillance companies such as Defense Australia. How do you claim privacy when you have police agencies peering with your VPN provider servers? https://bgp.he.net/AS55720#_peers It seems Australia is attempting to play police again with Asia. |
