I tried searching the forum on this subject, but am having some technical difficulty with that function at the moment.

I need to purchase a VPN service and would like to know what you would recommend. I am aware what a VPN is, how it works in general and why one need it. The other technical info is above me I guess. Previously had the paid AVSAT VPN, but my subscription expired and I decided to shop around.

It will be used in all my online activities - banking, e-mails, payments, while travelling, forums, surfing the net etc. Saw a few options, to name but a few: Tunnel Bear, Nord, Vyper, CyberGhost, Pure, Express etc etc.

I dont download or upload huge amounts of data - but view Youtube videos etc. Simply need a VPN that is top notch in online security. I dont want my details out there or easily obtained.

Requirements:

- top online security
- allow multiple devices (5-6)
- Android/Windows and Apple compatible
- good for travelling abroad
- fast enough to view Youtube videos / Skype etc.


Guidance and inputs will be welcomed and appreciated.

I use PureVPN with no problems. The part of the multiple devices I am not sure about because I configured the VPN on the router thus my whole network is connected via VPN. When I set location to SAfrica I still get basically the same ping as I get with it off. (This is also for international that I get the same ping)

Thanks.

I need to check how to configure my router to accommodate the VPN service - never done it before.

Also see they guys speak about the 14-Eyes agreement / countries when it comes to VPN services and the impact thereof regarding privacy.
