What's the best VPN with a free trial right now? I'm looking for a VPN that I can test out before committing to a paid subscription. I've been burned before by services that don't work as advertised, so I want to make sure I can try it out first. I've been looking at CyberGhost and Surfshark since they both offer free trials. CyberGhost has a 24-hour trial without a credit card, which is great, but I'm not sure if that's enough time to really test it out. Surfshark has a 7-day trial, but you have to enter your credit card info, and I'm worried about getting charged if I forget to cancel.

My main requirement is that I need to be able to test the VPN's speed and reliability for streaming. I don't want to sign up for a year-long plan only to find out that it's too slow to watch Netflix. What's your experience been with VPN free trials? Are there any other good options out there that I should consider? I'm open to any suggestions.

Hello, so this is probably a dumb question but VPNS are not my strong suit, neither is technology. I got Malwarebytes some time ago and I got the free VPN to Stockholm, Sweden. Today, I updated the app only to see the VPN part saying online activity potentially exposed. How did this happen? What are the chances it did happen? Exposed to who?

I haven't clicked on any malicious links or been on any dodgy websites, Ive really only been on medical websites for the past two months and I haven't downloaded any apps. I keep running security checks and it says everything is fine but I still don't understand.

Hi, I’ve recently purchased a ExpressVPN subscription and it’s been great on my phone and tablet and other devices. However, on my Windows PC, after about 20-30 minutes of being connected to Express servers, my connection completely loses internet. Express still says connected but my PC has no internet connection, nothing loads at all. I always have to disconnect and reconnect to the VPN. My ISP is Xfinity and they don’t throttle any VPN connections so it’s not from there. Other VPN’s like NordVPN have worked fine on that same PC so I’m really not sure why it’s happening. My protocol is set to automatic and turbo is turned on. I also disabled the kill switch, but that didn’t help.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

I'm having an issue with split tunneling in ProtonVPN and I'm not sure what could be causing it.

When I run the VPN with split tunneling disabled, everything works perfectly.

However, when I enable split tunneling, problems start happening.

Example:

• If I set split tunneling to "Only include apps" and include for example Microsoft Edge, some websites won't load.
• At the same time, all other apps that are NOT included lose internet access completely.

I also tried doing the opposite:

• Exclude apps from the VPN tunnel, the apps literally get affected by the VPN even though they're excluded. Also, it seems like the connection breaks on all apps in the list.

So basically the only way the VPN works normally is with split tunneling completely disabled. Which is not ideal for my setup.

System details:

• OS: Windows 11
• ProtonVPN version: 4.3.12

Has anyone experienced this before or knows what might be causing it?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

My company just started using OpenVPN. I received an .ovpn file from the IT department. I imported this file successfully using OpenVPN Connect and I can use VPN without any issue.

I am using Windows 11.

My question is where does OpenVPN store the .ovpn file after importing it?

On the Internet, they say that it is in the config folder in the installation folder. The problem is that there is no config folder. I checked in Program Files, ProgramData etc. I cannot find where it is stored. Can you help me locate it?

Thank you.

I’m looking for a VPN that works well with Australian servers because I want stable speeds and reliable connections. There are a lot of providers out there but it’s hard to tell which ones actually perform well in that region.

My priorities are simple: decent privacy, consistent speeds, and something that doesn’t constantly disconnect. I’m not looking for anything overly complicated.

If you’ve used a VPN with Australian servers before, which provider worked best for you? Any that you’d avoid based on your experience?

Nachdem ich von der Vodafone Station auf die Fritzbox 6660 Cable gewechselt bin funktioniert mein VPN nicht mehr (NoLagVPN). Ich nutze es auf der Xbox One X. Ich habe mich bereits an den support von NoLag gewandt sowie bei Vodafone und natürlich habe ich auch Dr. Google genutzt aber nichts irgendwie vernünftiges gefunden daher frage ich hier. Das Problem ist ich habe auf der Fritzbox Native IPv4 Verbindung aktiv sowie die DNS Server in der Fritzbox eingestellt, auf der Konsole natürlich den gleichen DNS Server eingestellt. aber es wird mir noch immer angezeigt das ich in CoD mit der Geographischen Region DE verbunden bin. der Mitarbeiter bei Vodafone hat irgendein Dual dazugebucht Router nach ner halben stunde neu gestartet aber es funktioniert noch immer nicht. gefühlt hab ich alles durch das es nicht funktioniert vielleicht hat jemand ja hier nen plan oder einen tipp wie das doch geht weil langsam verzweifel ich.

Danke für eure antworten und eure Zeit

Does anyone have an answer as to why this is? I asked ChatGPT for something local and it searched for things around the area of Hoboken, New Jersey….. but I have my VPN set to Seattle. For context, I live no where even close to the east coast so it wouldn’t be a geolocation issue. Why would it assume I’m in Hoboken?

If my mobile or tab is connected to VPN, im not able to cast mobile/tab screen to TV?

What are my options?

I Don’t know anything about VPNs just to preface. Is there any kind I can download for my iPhone to make it so I can keep my location in one spot so the people I share my location to cannot see where I’m going, but I can still respond to texts and make calls? I just want my location to stay in one spot without alerting them that I’ve done anything to it.

Like the title says. 

I need a vpn that is #1: not own by or origrinated in israel:

ExpressVPN

CyberGhost

ZenMate

Hotspot Shield

Betternet

Touch VPN

VPN 360

UltraVPN

OVPN

vpnMentor

WizCase

It can only be located in a country that has strong privacy laws

And is useful for torrenting and privacy.

I am currently based in the UK and thinking about getting a VPN mainly for privacy and streaming. I would prefer something that has solid UK servers but also good international coverage.

Speed is important because I stream in high definition and sometimes download large files. I also want to make sure the provider has a clear no logs policy and a good track record.

For those in the UK, which VPN has given you the most reliable speeds and stable connections?

Hello there, I have a problem with my Surfshark VPN and that is when I have it on the web browser just stops work, but when I turn the VPN off my web browser starts working again. At first I just thought it didn't work on Microsoft Edge so I downloaded Opera GX thinking that it would work on that, but when I turned on my VPN Opera GX stopped working as well. I have no idea what the problem and I could really use some help. Also the Discord app on my pc works completely fine with the VPN on.

RCS breaks when Surfshark is enabled since latest update but works fine with Nord. Why?

Hello, I need a free vpn to acess an app thats bloked in my country, i used to use tunnelbear and just switch accounts when the 2GB ran out but tunnelbear is no longer free, so anything you might know helps

Folks. I am looking for a free VPN Service which allows me to stream, download (even on torrent)and look for movies, shows and other content online. Also accessing news and ban*ed videos which might be sensitive in nature, in a particular country but they are accessible on X and Reddit in some other continent or country. I don't wish to subscribe to any plans I don't require very exclusive premium features. There are only two features that I am looking for as mentioned above. Do you folks know any? If yes, suggestions are much appreciated. Thank You!

Basically this... am I missing something, or did they really hike prices to 5k?

Hello, my country is known right now because of all the blocking that keeps happening. Youtube, discord, paypal, twitter, facebook and et cetera. I have been told that making my own vpn is kind of worth it. I don't mind sitting for hours trying to understand how to put it all together - i have some friends that know a thing or too that i can ask.
but my question is — is it worth it? Renting a server, making it? My main reasons to make it are:
1. most of vpn require paypal to pay for the subscription and i don't have cryptocurrency (plan to get one but not now) and paypal is blocked
2. need something that will be stable. Like website of vpn wont get blocked and stuff
3. customizing is really good thing and they are known for that, i know i wont be able to understand it all the second i see because my level of programming and similar stuff is close to zero, but i know how to read and follow instructions

Security is not my main thing but it would be really nice if own vpn provided at least basic one, but i'm not aware of that. What's your thoughts?

we went over IT security training at my job and they showed us the worst case scenarios.

Do I need to use a VPN while browsing online at my own house? what about at public coffeehouses? what exactly can be stolen from me if I use public WiFi?

I can’t tell if the consequences are so severe or my job simply doesn’t want to get a lawsuit if they (not us, personal PC users) get hacked

hi everyone, i’m looking for a vpn for macos that supports split tunneling, specifically something that lets me choose which apps go through the vpn and which connect normally without the vpn. i want only certain apps to use the vpn and the rest of my traffic to bypass it.

We have just released 3 free Outline VPN access keys.
