IPVanish continues to expand their VPN network and online privacy service. In the last week they released new versions of both their Windows and Mac clients. Today the IPVanish team is rolling out some new server locations. Members now have access to VPN servers in South Africa (Johannesburg) and Romania (Bucharest). They now have 57+ servers in 23 countries and growing. With access to over 3,500 IP’s.
As with all new IPVanish locations we tested the performance of each server. We’ll start with Bucharest:
We started by connecting to the server in Bucharest, Romania through the IPVanish client. Then tested our performance through speedtest.net. As you can see we were able to achieve 9.66 Mbps download and 3.63 Mbps upload speeds. That’s quite impressive considering we were testing from the United States.
Next we tested their new server location in Johannesburg:
We fired up the IPVanish client software once again to test the server in Johannesburg, South Africa. After connecting we tested the performance and achieved 8.62 Mbps download and 0.51 Mbps upload speeds.
As with all IPvanish network locations, the new servers support OpenVPN, PPTP and L2TP protocols. Allowing you to connect using their free Windows or Mac clients. They also support Linux and mobile devices like iPhone, iPad and Android. You can even set up IPVanish with a DD-WRT router. We highly recommend the service and use it on a regular basis. IPVanish is consistently the fastest VPN service for us. Whether at home or traveling we can connect with OpenVPN plus use PPTP or L2TP to encrypt our iPhone at the same time.
If you haven’t had a chance to check out the IPVanish service then we suggest you give them a try. The service is very affordable with unlimited VPN access for just $10 a month or $77 a year. Along with a 7 day money back guarantee which is plenty of time to test the service and their free client. Visit IPVanish.com for more details.
