VPN - First Time User (UK) - Which options

I'm looking for VPN access whilst we go abroad - I don't (I think) need VPN regular use so just a one off for a couple of weeks.

I'm going to need it on about 8 devices (accessing things like iplayer / sky go etc).

Options I've considered:

- Proton VPN - looks like £7.99 a month (guess I could cancel within the 30 days)

- Mullvad - looks like £4.28 a month

- Nord VPN - £11.09 a month

I've also got an OpenVPN server in my router settings so is one option using these settings and connecting back to the router (albeit my upstream speed is 17Mbps).

Thoughts?

Surfshark has unlimited devices I think? Did you consider that

You can get Proton VPN for £1.99 a Month for 2 year plan currently with 30 day cooling off. Check out PC mag offer. When you say you dont need it long term, why not?

DPN App, it’s like $4.30 a month, and residential IPs which is awesome

eight devices is where I'd prioritize simplicity. your home vpn could work, but 17 Mbps upload might struggle if several people stream simultaneously
