1434212 2017-04-19 01:07:00 Depends on what you're wanting to use the VPN for, and on what clients? Just a windows laptop? From your Cellphone also? Chilling_Silence (9)

There are all sorts of dodgy VPNs doing bad stuff, you have to be careful, especially at the free/cheap end.

1434214 2017-04-21 12:42:00 Personally I use Private Internet Access (https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/).

Good worldwide server coverage, the app works on multiple platforms including iOS/Android, can be used up to 5 different devices simultaneously and the speed is pretty decent.

It makes use of OpenVPN which is pretty popular and known for its "robustness".

I find the pricing quite reasonable, I bought my 2-year license for just US$60.

I have tried a few free offerings but found that most had really poor speeds [like below 1Mbps] and this was when I was on a 50Mb VDSL connection.

Hope that helps.
