I’ve been using Mullvad for the past few months. Have not had many issues with it aside from the 5 device limit and the removal of port forwarding. I’m currently looking at Private Internet Access as a potential replacement. It looks like it offers 10 device limit and port forwarding included with the price.
Anyone using PIA? How’s the experience?
Edit: Probably should have mentioned, feel free to offer any other recommendations, I’m not attached to, or against any specific recommendations. I would like it to have a GUI available on Linux though if possible.
I’m using Astrill. Flawless router integration if you have a supported model (i.e. most somewhat modern ASUS and a bunch of others), works with Android, iOS, Linux (tested on Xubuntu, clean and functional GUI, identical to Win) and Windows.
Huge list of servers, generally high speeds, works well with Netflix and Disney+ (don’t use any other streaming services), has a DNS Leak block and a killswitch (disconnect internet if VPN fails). Feeling pretty good about it, been using it for well over 5 years now.
Sure is a bit on the pricey side, but you get 1 router + 5 client installations as per the terms & conditions, and they don’t begin kicking out devices if there’s fewer than 7 connected simultaneously. So if you share it among 2-3 people, it’s already a bargain.
And if you happen to live in China, it’s kinda without alternatives to begin with (which is my main use case).
Damn, that pricing is tough. It makes ExpressVPN look like a cheap option, lol
