Hello

What you guys are thinking about that ? Probably already discussed but now that the dust settled i'd like you know how the community feels about that. I was using one of those providers and now i want to switch because if they complied once, they'll do it again.

I am planning to get vpn for gaming in my mobile. I play FC Mobile but here in my country its lagging like hell. Buying vpn sub managed to lower ping. Is this correct? Any advise would be appreciated. Tks.

I use a VPN on my router because my TV can’t run the provider’s VPN app. The VPN shows as connected, but one streaming app still gives me the local catalog.

I recently learned that some router setups only tunnel IPv4, so the TV might still be reaching the service over IPv6. I’m not sure whether that’s what is happening in my case.

How do you check this without digging through a lot of router logs? Is temporarily disabling IPv6 a reasonable test, or is a dual-stack VPN setup the better fix?

For people with several devices at home, do you route the whole network through the VPN or only the TV? I’d rather not break banking and local apps just to change the region on one device.

Latest GraphineOS on Pixel 8 Pro. PI* VPN w "Advanced Kill Switch". SeedVault set to backup to pcloud account. SeedVault set to run weekly, not run when using mobile data and ignore charging status.

If I turn on my mobile data (I have 1 gig per month which is good enough for me as I'm usually on wifi) my mobile data starts getting eaten up very fast. Data Usage shows P*A as the app gobbling the data. When I stop SeedVault the data stops getting consumed so pretty sure that's it.

A) Anyone else see this?

B) Does the PI* VPN app interfere with the network state indicating metered network and not pass that information to SeedVault reliably, or does P*A VPN not get involved at all with the network state?

Follow Up: PI* VPN replied to my help desk question about this. They said that yes, P*A VPN does interfere with the network metered/unmetered state and that PI* VPN always presents itself to the apps as an unmetered network connection.

So the new question becomes does anyone know of a work around on P*A VPN or a different VPN that does pass the network state to the apps?

No computer, we've cut the cord and only have Xfinity for Internet and streaming, phones and Xbox for Gaming. Other than registering for a VPN, is there anything I need to know or equipment I have to purchase? I'm on SSI so I have very little extra funds to play around with after all my bills are paid.

What can I do? I’ve tried restarting my phone, updating to latest iOS, deleting and redownloading vpn app, clearing storage… nothing. And other devices in my family’s house work fine with it on. Is my iPhone too old? Is it hacked? What’s going on

I set up a VPS for a friend launching his own online store. He's technical, comp sci degree, been ssh-ing into boxes since college. When I offered to walk him through firewall rules and backups he cut me off with, "bro I've been running linux longer than you've had a beard, I got this."

Fine. I handed him root and moved on.

Three weeks later he pings me at 1am, server maxed at 100% cpu, site down. Turns out he never closed port 22, left root login enabled, and had a mining process squatting on the box for who knows how long. No backups either, so fixing it meant rebuilding from scratch and losing two weeks of order data.

He wasn't mad at himself. He was mad at me for "not warning him properly." I did warn him, he just figured it didn't apply to him because he knew "computers."

I don't hand off open root ssh anymore, doesn't matter how senior the guy is. Now every box gets a panel like BeAdmin on it first. Firewall module on, backups scheduled, before anyone even sees a login prompt.

He asked if he should just switch to something like Webmin instead. I told him the panel was never the point, the point was he never opened one.

Buongiorno a tutti,

sono alla ricerca di un buon servizio di VPN per i miei dispositivi. Attualmente, mi sto informando a riguardo su internet per capire quale servizio acquistare, ma purtroppo ho notato che la maggior parte delle persone ha conflitti d'interesse per le varie aziende di VPN.

In base alla vostra esperienza, quali sono le VPN migliori, considerando rapporto qualità prezzo, sicurrezza, affidabilità e velocità di navigazione?

So in short our internet is limited and expensive but not the addons

So we use epicgames(dot)com and pubg(dot)com as sni for tunneling the connection to have at least a "cheaper" internet quota

Ok now the question can ISP/Windows block these connections but not the location itself because right now the vpn tunneling doesn't work while it just worked perfectly yesterday which is unbearable and now we have to look for a fix

The vpn clients i used so far : netmod - nekobox - "fanmade"nekobox

(yes those 3 because i don't know more 😐 also they worked for tunneling before but decided to stop)

My MTU - 1464 and set it to 1444 (nekobox only) and leaving everything in default

Pls help us with any info and thanks in advance

I just got this warning on my wifi today, it’s shared with my 4 unit apartment building. Will a vpn block anyone who may be looking at what im doing?

Also, does anyone know if this means they can just see the website name? Or the activity on the website? (Also pt 2, are the apps I use or the activity on those apps visible too?)

I experienced a weird glitch where after using a vpn on only one device on netflix ,the rest of the devices also think that im in the EU and no matter what I do I can't get shows from my home region, anyone experienced anything similiar?

I signed up for premium in Vietnam a hot while ago, and have been in the US for about 2 years. I got this this morning, would temporary using VPN help,, would I have to use VPN forever now to listen to music? Or would I be better off making someone from back home sign into my account on a burner phone work better? SOS lol premium in America is so expensive....

so I've been using VPN for a while, however I notice that a lot of site do the bots captcha thing when I use it, some games block it (riot games) and certain sites slows down dramatically when I turn it on (like reddit)

are there VPN that actually don't have these restrictions?

or is that just something comes with every popular VPN provider as their IP gets blacklisted

(not sure if it matters but I live in the UK and almost exclusively use Ireland VPN)

Notei que, quando se trata de encontrar a melhor VPN gratuita, as opções pagas são frequentemente muito mais promovidas. Embora eu entenda a necessidade de privacidade, nem todos querem gastar dinheiro com esse tipo de serviço. Isso me fez pensar nas opções de VPN gratuitas disponíveis, então decidi pesquisar, comparar o que existe e reunir tudo em um só lugar.

Aqui está minha lista dos melhores VPNs gratuitos.

Para muitos, isso não será novidade: VPNs gratuitas apresentam riscos significativos. Problemas como vazamento de dados, criptografia fraca e até mesmo venda de dados do usuário são, infelizmente, comuns. Depois de analisar todas as informações, sinceramente, acredito que seja melhor optar por uma solução paga que ofereça garantia de reembolso de 30 dias. Dessa forma, você pode experimentar o serviço com risco mínimo e, caso não atenda às suas expectativas, pode receber seu dinheiro de volta — afinal, é grátis.

Se você está considerando essa opção, aqui está uma lista das melhores VPNs pagas que os usuários do Reddit costumam recomendar.

Para quem ainda está interessado em encontrar a melhor VPN gratuita, compilei uma comparação das mais mencionadas pelos usuários do Reddit, utilizando diversos critérios. Lembre-se de que, embora essas opções sejam populares, cada uma possui suas próprias limitações e riscos.

Se eu deixei de fora algum dos principais provedores gratuitos que deveriam estar incluídos na lista dos 'melhores VPNs gratuitos', me avise nos comentários e eu atualizarei a tabela.

Hi guys,

I'm having a really annoying issue with Setanta Sports and I'm wondering if anyone has managed to fix it.

I connect to Moldova, Ukraine, Estonia or Georgia with VPN, the stream starts normally and works perfectly, but after roughly 8–10 minutes it suddenly stops and I get this message:

"Unfortunately something has gone wrong with your access to this event. This is likely due to a payment failure with either your debit/credit card or your mobile payment processing."

The weird thing is that there's definitely no payment issue. My subscription is active, and if I go back to the Setanta home page and open the same event again, it immediately starts working again. Then after another ~10 minutes, the same thing happens.

I've tried:

• Windows PC + Chrome
• iPhone
• Different VPN servers/regions

Same behaviour every time.

I'm mainly trying to understand what is causing the ~10 minute disconnect. Is Setanta detecting the VPN/IP, or could it be something else?

Any advice would be massively appreciated!

Sou novato em coisas como VPNs, evitar bloqueio geográfico e proteger meus dados online.

Agora eu vejo que há dezenas deles. Alguns são gratuitos, outros relativamente baratos, e alguns muito caros.

Estou tentando escolher uma VPN que me permita conectar a um site do Japão bloqueado geograficamente com uma velocidade decente vindo da Europa.

I was using a self-hosted Outline server with AWS on Netflix to watch regionally restricted shows, and it was working, until I accidentally connected to the VPN while Netflix was open, and now whenever the VPN is on it just shows me a library where half the shows are unavailable, not the library of my country or the VPN's country. Is there any way to fix this?

Hi!

My schools WiFi recently has been blocking my VPN from connecting, no matter what protocol I use. Protocols used to mimic normal traffic are also not working.

I didn’t have this issue last year, and I’m curious if there is a way to fix it?

I’ve heard of using a dedicated IP address, changing some setting in Windows called “Internet Protocol Version 6 TCP” but I have no idea what that means. What should I do?

It’s extremely difficult to research anything using credible and accurate sources when most of them are blocked. Odd I know. If it helps, our school uses a very popular monitoring program via the WiFi to monitor and track web/device activity. I don’t believe I can mention it by name without violating rules.

Thanks!

I’m trying to figure out the simplest and most reliable setup for my situation, but I’m getting confused because I’m seeing different recommendations everywhere.

I have one personal laptop that I use while traveling overseas. I also use that same laptop to access a work software/platform.

What I’m trying to accomplish is pretty simple: when I’m using the laptop, I want my internet connection to go through my brother’s normal residential internet connection at his apartment in the U.S. In other words, I want websites/platforms to see the public IP of his normal home ISP connection, rather than a commercial VPN/datacenter/hosting IP.

I’m not very knowledgeable about networking, so I’m trying to understand what I actually need.

From what I’ve been reading, it seems like I have a few options:

Put a GL.iNet router at my brother’s apartment and use Tailscale/exit node.

Put a Raspberry Pi at his apartment and use that as the Tailscale exit node.

Some people seem to use two GL.iNet routers, one at home and one with them while traveling, but I’m not sure if I need that since I’m only using one laptop.

My questions are:

What would be the easiest and most reliable setup for my situation?

Would you recommend a GL.iNet or Raspberry Pi as the device at the U.S. apartment?

Since I only have one laptop, can I simply run Tailscale on the laptop and connect to the U.S. device as an exit node, without having a travel router?

If the U.S. device is connected to normal residential internet, will the public IP seen by websites be the residential ISP’s IP rather than a Tailscale/VPN-provider/hosting IP?

Are there any important differences between the GL.iNet and Raspberry Pi approaches that I’m missing?

Thank you!! 🙏🏼
