Can I connect multiple devices at the same time?

Do you offer DNS-leak protection?

Yes. Whether DNS-leak protection is available depends on the VPN protocol you choose.

Do you have a kill-switch?

When our VPNGUI app is used in OpenVPN mode, you can optionally enable a kill-switch. The kill-switch ensures no traffic leaks to your ISP in the event of a VPN failure.

Do use DNSSEC?

Most of our servers have DNSSEC enabled.

When do I receive my login information?

After payment our system immediately sends you the Login Details e-mail. If you haven't received it within 30 minutes please check your spam folder or contact us.

Why should I use a VPN?

Different people use VPN's for different reasons. The most common uses are:

  • Securing your connection when using public Wi-Fi or other untrusted networks.
  • Enjoying the Internet in your own language when traveling abroad.

Do you have a NAT firewall?

Yes. Whenever you connect to our VPN you automatically benefit from our NAT firewalls. This is includedwith your plan for free.

Do you allow Bittorrent?

No. We have no way to distinguish legal from illegal torrents, so unfortunately we cannot allow the use of bittorrent.

Are you blocking port XYZ?

To minimize abuse of our service some ports may be blocked. Please contact us if you're running into a blocked port and need a server or service to be whitelisted.

Do you allow bit btSync?

We would love to, but unfortunately we're unable to distinguish it from regular Bittorrent.

Does the service work world-wide?

Currently the service works in all countries, except Turkmenistan, Nigeria and Ghana.
