People complain about tech support yet if you know what you’re doing you’ll likely never need it. I have had no issues maxing out my bandwidth using btguard. I am currently in the southeastern united states and am on a 100mbps fiber connection. The service is fast, I’ve had no issues come up as far as privacy is concerned and I was achieving must faster speeds using the OpenVPN connection. For maximum security use OpenVPN or L2TP.
BTGUARD VS TORGUARD CRACKED
Note: The handshake protocol (MSCHAP_V2) used by many PPTP connections has been cracked and therefore PPTP could now be considered unencrypted. In Europe though, OpenVPN still seems to provide great speeds when connecting to the EU server. We found that OpenVPN seems to sacrifice performance quite a bit when connecting from the US. PPTP via their EU server seems to have the best and most consistent speeds, especially from the US. The Canada server seems to be under heavy load and a bit slow. That isn’t specified in some of the instructions and we had this trouble in a couple instances with PPTP connections. Tips: If you’re having trouble with connecting, but not actually seeing your IP address change, try checking the option in your VPN settings to “use the VPN for all traffic” (or similar wording). That being said, we do support fundamental reforms of copyright laws as proposed by the Pirate Party political and activist organizations around the world. do not suggest, condone, or practice the violation of national or international copyright law.
BTGUARD VS TORGUARD TV
However, if you are looking for more, you may find the limited server network restricting (For example, it’s no good for US or UK online TV network streaming).ĭisclaimer: Know the laws in your country and locality. If only occasional/light P2P file sharing is your thing the EU server should work ok. We also found the Canada server very overloaded and slow at times and experienced more consistent results connecting via the EU server. However, we found connecting via PPTP instead slightly increased the server speeds. Set-up is easy and BTGuard works via the standard OpenVPN GUI.


Our Thoughts: We tested the VPN service (not the proxy service) and it’s a basic, no frills affair. Privacy: BTGuard does not log customer IP addresses or customer usage. The server network is limited to Canada, Netherlands(EU) and Singapore so pick the nearest server to your location, P2P downloads should then be at least reliable and secure.
BTGUARD VS TORGUARD DOWNLOAD
Service: BTGuard comes in two flavors (and prices):-Īs a Bittorrent Proxy – BTGuard’s paid proxy service ($6.95 / Month), through which you pass your download traffic, hides the IP-addresses of its users from the public and any tracking will see the BTGuard IP address rather than your own and therefore your identity effectively stays hidden from view.Īs a VPN Service – BTGuard’s VPN service ($9.95 / Month), operates much like any other VPN, securing your internet connection and rendering your web browsing and other net services anonymous.
