• A slight adjunct to working Wi-Fi, but what’s the forum approved VPN?

    I know of Nord and Surfshark, but are they any good and/or are there better alternatives?

  • I use Proton as part of their full package - VPN, email, cloud storage, password manager, etc.

    But I'm no expert and I'm probably about to be informed why that's a terrible idea.

  • It depends a bit what you want it for and how much effort you want to put in. I run OpenVPN on my router at home which means I can VPN back to home. Useful for access to things on my LAN or being 'in the UK' when I'm on holiday and want to watch the Olympics with the not at all biased BBC angle.

    It also gives me the 'protection from evil' that Nord/SurfShark think is necessary but I think is bullshit so I don't actually do that.

    Since it goes to home my daughter can use it when at Uni with a tiny hardware box (GL-MT300N-V2) to Netflix on the family account. Probably, I've tested but not done it for real yet.
