The IPVanish team just rolled out a new release of their popular Windows VPN client. Version 1.3.0.2 comes with a fresh new look. The user interface displays all 90+ IPVanish VPN servers along with their response (ping) times. We tested several locations and were able to switch between servers and IP’s worldwide. The new client is included free with their service. IPVanish offers unlimited VPN from just $6.49 a month.
Let’s take a look at the user interface in the new 1.3.0.2 Windows client release:
As you can see we were connected to a VPN server in London when we took this screenshot. The client clearly shows our location (London, UK) along with the IP address (81.171.97.39) assigned to our connection. With an IP in the United Kingdom we could watch BBC content. The same is true when connected to servers in the United States. Unblocking access to popular streaming services like Netflix, Hulu and Pandora.
With the new software design you can easily choose between OpenVPN (TCP or UDP), L2TP or PPTP protocols. We like OpenVPN (TCP) the best for maximum protection. For streaming services OpenVPN (UDP) provides the fastest connection speeds. We regularly achieve over 30 Mbps download speeds in the United States while enjoying encrypted VPN access. Fast enough to stream HD content without any lags.
Cheers to the IPVanish development team. The fresh look and feel of their new Windows client will be enjoyed by new and existing users alike. We use the service on a regular basis and look forward to future releases. Follow us @VPNSP for all the latest news and specials. Download the new client from IPVanish.com.
