A VPN, however, may help grant you access by making your traffic look like it’s coming from a different location!! VPN protects its users by encrypting their data and masking their IP address-es.

5. VP-N can help protect your online privacy and security by encrypting your internet traffic and masking your IP address. This can prevent identity thieves, hackers and other malicious actors from intercepting your on-line activity or stealing your personal information like credit-card info or password.

7. How does a VPN works? Which one is the top VPN provider (free)

   A VPN works by creating a secure and encrypted connection between your device and the internet. When you connect to a VPN, all of your internet traffic is routed through an encrypted tunnel, which makes it difficult for anyone to intercept or monitor your online activity. Most of the popular top VPN service providers are: NordVPN, Proton VPN, Mozialla VPN, Windscribe VPN, Secure VPN, Turbo VPN, Surfshark, HideMyAss, Planet VPN, ExpressVPN, FastVPN (from namecheap), TouchVPN, etc. Antivirus service providers like Avast also offers VPN. Also you can try (free trial) of CyberGhost, IPVanish, Hide.me, PureVPN, TorGuard, TunnelBear, Mullvad VPN (paid), Hotspot Shield, etc.

8. Some VPNs can help give you access to sports coverage that’s geographically restricted. For instance, a television network such as Sky Sports (available in the U.K. and Ireland only) doesn’t have broadcast rights in India. Nevertheless, a VPN will be capable of making viewing such a channel possible, so is Netflix and Amazon Prime or any other movie streaming services or IPTV you can watch anywhere around the world with a VPN susbscription.

10. Does anyone know what are the various protocols for VPN used now-a-days?

    Few of the top and popular VPN protocols are: PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol), L2TP/IPsec (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol/Internet Protocol Security), OpenVPN, WireGuard, SSTP (Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol), IKEv2 (Internet Key Exchange version 2).

11. I’m using Windscribe VPN. It is one of the top free VPN services, offering a strong firewall, AdBlock software, peer-to-peer connections, and up to 10GB per month of bandwidth.

12. I’m using Open-VPN installed on a cheap VPS plan I purchased here at The-Online.com 2 years ago. I’m based in Hong Kong and often need to stream movies online for my viewing as I’m hollywood fan. So I watch net-flix and amazon pri-me videos on VPN hosted on my own VPS.

13. when you install and use a VPN it helps to minimize bandwidth crowding. the intentional slowing or speeding of an internet service by an Internet service provider (ISP), so VPN can discomfit the sloth by decoding your device’s internet traffic.

14. With which server providers you can recommed to host private VPN with?

15. Though you can get a VPS (aka vm, root server, VDS, virtual private server) with a root access/shell so that you can install your favorite VP-N and start using it within few minutes, but you must ask the hosting provider if they allow private VPN to be hosted on their servers. I know some providers like The-Online.com, buy-vm, rack-nerd, incognet, albelo-host, vsys, etc do allow to host VPN on their self managed VPS plans. But you can try asking other providers like godaddy, hetzner, ovh, lease-web, liquidweb, contabo, ramnode, extravm, ethernet servers, alienvps, bluehost, hostgator, milesweb, serverbasket, hostpapa, fatcow, justhost, colo-crossing, speedypage, dream-host, ipage, flokinet, php-friends, all-inkl, o2switch, namehero, westhost, infomaniak, netcup, velia, m247, egi, interserver, clouvider, crunchbits, solid vps, rosehosting, rumahweb, serverhub, hostinger, ionos, asura, quadranet, hostdime, hivelocity, seekahost, limestone networks, hostway, hostcram, shockhosting, heart internet, host europe, planet hoster, 123reg, tsohost, cloudcone, and many! Some people are also using cloud hosting providers like vultr, digital-ocean, aws amazon, google cloud to host VP-N.
