What VPN provider do you use?

and a static IP.

O_o but why

Isn't this a subreddit about selfhosting? How is no one talking about OpenVPN?

I run an IPSEC vpn between me and my server. OpenVPN for the SSL vpn when I'm on the road. Split-tunnel is the default, but if I log in as a different user then I routes all traffic out the VPN.

OVPN. They have dedicated ip with port forwarding

I have Proton Unlimited, so got the VPN included. Otherwise I would use Mullvad

PIA. Supports port forwarding.

I use protonvpn due to me getting it with my proton unlimited bundle, and on the plus side with some scripting I can use the proton NAT-PMP forwarding with my qbittorent to get port forwarding while.. distributing and acquiring Linux isos.

I've been using PIA for a good few years now, never had a problem with them, slightly concernced that I appear to be pretty much the only one, does everyone else know something I don't?

My own Ubiquiti VPN on the USG I have in my rack. #selfhosted

Windscribe

Proton is good and Windscribe is good if you need a dedicated ip.

Njalla works very well for me since the time it was (unfortunately) called ipredator

I don't torrent but am looking to start using surfshark to get the most out of all the freaking subscriptions.

For my homelab and work I use a VPS running the OPNsense router OS with openvpn. You can take any FreeBSD instance and bootstrap it to get OPNsense if your provider doesn't allow custom iso's.

Windscribe.

They usually run a really good sale around Black Friday (US).

I have been happy with NordVPN. It is able to give me nearly 100% of my 1.5Gbps connection, and with almost no latency difference I'm able to game without turning it off.

Ovpn. Tested in court as well.

Oracle cloud free VPS… with wireguard.

AirVPN. They let you port forward up to 20 ports, which is useful for various use cases (not just file sharing). If you want to seed torrents, port forwarding is an essential feature.

I was with mullvad for a year and the speeds sucked, nordvpn for a few years now and the speeds are great - and I always keep the mesh net feature on my devices so I can remote in without opening ports.

I don’t even really use the vpn service anymore though, just the mesh net. I will probably not renew when my year is up.

Since Mullvad got rid of Port Forwarding, I use TorGuard for checking out LinuxISOs

But I still use Mullvad on my pc/phone, since its the best

I manily use Mysterium as I like having resedential IP addresses that are (usually) not detected for being a proxy but I also have Mullvad

For torrenting No vpn instead get a cheap vps service who don't give a damn about copyright and install wireguard.

AirVPN since about 8 years. Highly recommended. If you want something flashy that wins design awards looks elsewhere :) from a technical perspective they are absolutely top notch with every feature you could possibly wish for.

Mullvad before port forwarding, ProtonVPN once Mullvad got rid of it

Kaspersky because it’s part of my $3/month antivirus.. split tunnel kills my self-hosted docker stuff, and essentially isn’t really split tunneling, but yeah

PIA since Mullvad took away port forwarding.

I host my own VPN. All I need when I am out and about.

"I'm setting up a self-hosted server. Is VPNHouse suitable for this?

Mullvad, it's extremely popular among privacy advocates

ExpressVPN and I've got it running on my router, which makes things really simple for the rest of the network.

I’m surprised that no one mentioned IVPN

Defintely not you asked, but have you considered switching from torrents for your linux ISOs to Real Debrid?

Made the switch last week, can't be happier. It even comes with mega and usenet downloads for cheaper than a VPN. Doesn't solve the static IP issue, but you might want to check it out.

I don’t think you can go wrong with NordVPN, Proton or Mullvad. I find Nord and Proton have better speeds.

VPN.ac

Very happy for quite a few years now. Before that rotated through quite a few.

Reasons=

1. Romanian court over ruled EU's 6 month data retention policy.

2. 6 wireguard connections.

3. ~€46 per year.

4. Small team of good dudes. I can't stand the support vibe from big companies.

I use my home router as a VPN server.

None, linode vps near my 5G upstream, running a wireguard node. Pihole + unbound, nginx and local DNS ftw. Route all traffic through the vps wireguard tunnel. YMMV, I'm rural so this setup works best for me.

Quectel 5G modem with 4x CA, waveform 4x mimo antenna on 30 foot pole, pointed at tower with best signal, calyx sim card, UDM-SE + 6E Enterprise AP. Started out as a way to escape CGNAT, and port forward / bypass video bandwidth throttle on T-Mobile network, progressed into a unifi obsession / homelab.

No one for iVPN?

The creators of the DNS Leak check website.

I have several VPSes around the world each with OpenVPN.

I use NordVPN, audited no-logs and they have static IPs to buy

I'm using Safeshell because it's highly secure and has excellent stability.

I self host, it's way more convenient (opinion) and I don't really care about anonymity. Also less expensive.

I host my own OpenVpn server in 2 different countries

Selfhosted WG

a pi with wireguard in multiple friends houses in different countries

I host my own VPN on a VPS. This way I am sure all the logging is truly disabled.

Airvpn with 3 year plan, windscribe with discount link you can find on reddit or their newsletter discounts are both good value

Hmm, I use expressvpn but don’t see anyone here mentioning it. Is there something I should know about them?

Self hostes free OpenVPN 😎

Honestly, if you're happy with the service surfshark had been providing, why roll the dice and switch? Stick with what's making you happy.

PIA

Reason = Transmission

I am collecting Linux.iso :)

None, get a $5 vps and setup openvpn

Windscribe

What do people think of Mozilla VPN? That's what I use currently.

Any on this page https://www.privacytools.io/privacy-vpn

None. Why would you use a VPN ?

None of your business! Who are you, a cop?

Did you forget what subreddit you're in? This is /r/selfhosted not /r/hosted

Go set up your own VPN already, this isn't the place for this, despite people in this sub likely having something to say.
