(edited)I forked out for ivacy after talking to support as i wasnt happy not being able to access my nas storage or chromecast with the killswitch on with vpn unlimited, still the best experience ive had on windows is with windscribe which has been flawless since version 2.0 of the app and i still use the free 50gb/month sometimes just for a painless experience
it includes the protocols tcp, udp, l2tp, ikev2 and wireguard
if anyone wants the downpoints that ive found using the windows app, for one it doesnt show the ip address of the server that youre using, so you have to find that elsewhere, it sometimes has connection issues with killswitch on where after 30seconds in most cases, it'll disconnect and then the reconnect afterwards is fine although ive found that it changes server to one of texas or romania sometimes when it does that
also the menu items arent necessary, smart connect and secure download are the same servers, i believe you cant choose a streaming server whilst keeping split tunneling on either
oh and it blocks ports by default, if you want port forwarding you need to log into the site and go to account and choose the addons tab and either enable port forwarding or type the ports you want to allow port forwarding with
ive been using it since february but so far so good, some issues with qbit udp trackers if i select any port over 1000 but under that and udp works, no idea why thats a thing even with port forwarding enabled but there we go
Looking at the app reviews, not great reviews I'm afraid.
Turkey servers don't work with netflix on Mac and Windows detects the windows app as a virus when you download it. (edited)
Thanks in advance
Servers are RAM based rather than Drives and 10Gb/s Server Connections.
Their Security is constantly tested. Unlimited Device connections.
You pay for top quality features like Torrent support.
I got PIA VPN with big cashback and it was money well-spent, always works, reliable, fast, etc. I won't bother cutting corners again. Same with Express, Nord, Mullvad, etc. Windscribe are also good but don't seem to do deals now.
How's its split tunneling on Windows?
Reading reviews it seems to have the same reconnect issues as ivacy and lack of port forwarding (edited)
Ivacy expired after 5 years and a simple email with proof of purchase to support and they put my account back on Pro with no end date.
Great VPN service, fast and reliable speed.
brazil yes
india ( v ), no idea what that means but a few servers have it
most of the time i connect but it doesnt allow traffic and then disconnects after 30-45seconds and then and only then does an auto reconnect timer count down
and if your internet drops for a while it stays "connected" but you cant reconnect (obviously) but it gets stuck trying to connect and when you stop it cpu usage spikes so that its stuck at 98-100% until you close and reopen it
all that with the killswitch on, which wont help
android though, 0 issues
as i was installing ivacy it started quarantining the folder contents and i ended up force closing ivacy, making a new installation folder and install there since avira had locked down the original folder for cleaning after restart
i get errors sometimes too, even if i switch protocols, although it has been working the past couple of days without the try again later errors (edited)
I keep getting error 'There is problem with the connection, please try again later' (edited)
Anyone been able to get port forwarding to work? I typed in the port in custom ports when logged in, set port forwarding on router to laptop (external and internal port I just put the port I chose?) but it is still showing something like "20 seconds no response, likely port is closed." Do you have to pay extra for port forwarding? I can see "Your Settings" on the port forwarding page but it also says "Talk to a live chat representative to add this add on" (edited)
Edited: contacted support who want to do a team viewer remote session to fix it (no thanks!). As I said to them if it affects both android and Windows and most likely android TV and Xbox if I add it there, then how's connecting to my laptop going to help?
I've also mentioned to them my connection issues and the fact they don't show the ip of the server on Windows once connected. All been forwarded so we'll see. (edited)
What do others here think about these VT scan results of ivacy-windows-setup.exe ?
