Introduction

VPN.ht is a user-friendly network proxy software that not only protects user privacy in real time and hides and encrypts IP addresses, but also allows users to connect to network nodes around the world for unlimited access to any website and download content of interest to their devices. The software provides users with unlimited bandwidth and speed, allowing them to choose freely whether playing games or watching movies. It also supports intelligent switching, adapting to the speed of network nodes in different regions to ensure a smooth network environment for the user.

Features of VPN.ht:

Support: VPN.ht provides support using their self-hosted ticketing system. We were pleased to receive replies quickly, in less than 4 hours, which was better than our support requests with many other VPN services.

Speed and Reliability: We had no problems connecting and using the service for a few days. Speed was good, torrent downloads were never blocked and Popcorn Time downloading/streaming was smooth in HD quality. We used OpenVPN in our testing. Around 90 Mbps was the best we could reach using torrent downloads. DNS leaks were all over the place as this is a common issue with OpenVPN GUI. Speaking of DNS leaks, we couldn’t find any how-to within their documentation on how to fix them, but we hope they will add it at some point.

Logging and Privacy: According to their privacy policy, they do not log user activity or traffic data of users, but collect information related to the connections such as connection time stamps and amount of data transferred.

Functions of VPN.ht:

Secure Authentication: Login/signup with secure token storage using OS keychain

73 VPN Servers: Global server network with real-time latency testing

DNS Leak Protection: Prevent DNS leaks with custom DNS support

Dark Mode: Beautiful dark UI with system preference detection

User Reviews of VPN.ht:

Initially I gave this company a huge failing grade. However, after spending three hours trying to figure out why OpenVPN wasn't creating a connection, I figured it out. You have to manually generate a .config file from VPN.ht's website. DO NOT USE the .config file that comes with their tutorial. It will probably not work. Once I figured out that it wasn't my network, firewall, router etc. causing the connection failure, things worked as they should. Their customer service was a bit slow, but I mentioned my issue to them and hopefully they will revise their tutorial to prevent other people from having the same issue.

I put VPN.ht to the test to see how well it works as a VPN service. For starters, VPN.ht works well to unblock international content on Netflix, Disney+, Spotify, and Amazon Prime Video. But the VPN struggled with BBC iPlayer, Hulu, and a host of other popular streaming services.As far as security and privacy, it is very safe to use. VPN.ht uses 64, 128, and 256-bit algorithms to better protect your connection while supporting OpenVPN, L2TP, IPSec, and PPTP protocols. However, one major drawback is that VPN.ht doesn't offer a functional kill switch.VPN.ht also offers unlimited torrenting and P2P connections. That makes sense, seeing as the VPN was created specifically for torrenting with the Popcorn Time BitTorrent platform.While the VPN’s network is somewhat limited with 90 servers across 26 countries when compared to other companies, it does offer connections in hard-to-find countries like Brazil, Romania, and Poland.Currently, VPN.ht is available for Windows, Unix/Linux, Ubuntu, Redhat, Chromebook, iOS, and Android. VPN.ht may also be used with routers that allow VPN setup.
