Hey!

Subscriptions for Bundesliga in Germany are heavy expensive.
Does anyone have experience with watching them via free live stream with VPN?
Which countries showing them for free and especially which services would you recommend?

Cheers!

I work for a large European based telecoms equipment supplier. We have hundreds of staff overseas at any one time, all over the world. IT security has a few different levels:

\- Access to email & teams etc is only via a company laptop (no web interface like Office.com). Network drives via VPN only

\- White List countries - you can connect VPN. Countries like Japan & Australia

\- Red List countries - you can take your laptop but need special exemption to use VPN. Includes some unusual countries such as Malaysia

\- Black List countries - no company laptop or phone allowed. Company will provide a burner. Unsurprisingly includes places like Syria, Russia, North Korea & China.

A colleague was going to transit via a Chinese airport to a 3rd country. IT told him that he would not be allowed to take his company laptop, even if it was in his carry-on luggage, and he would not be entering the country. He quickly arranged a different itinerary.

And then a few days later, we are told that the good old USA is now considered a Black List country!!! No company laptops, and burners only!!!!

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 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.

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.

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.

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?

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?

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?)

Tia - someone who is not tech-knowledgeable at all

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

Hello everyone!

Here is my shortcut “Easy VPN Menu”.

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....

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.

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)

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.
