Question 1

What is the best VPN for streaming RTÉ Player?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is hands-down my top choice for streaming RTÉ Player. It always works with RTÉ Player’s site, as confirmed by my colleague in Ireland, maintains lightning-fast speeds for smooth streaming, and comes with easy-to-use apps.

Question 2

Can I use a free VPN to watch RTÉ Player?

Accepted Answer

Probably not, as most free VPNs don’t allow you to access their servers in Ireland. And the ones that do either don’t work with RTÉ Player or have very low monthly data limits, which means you’ll only be able to watch your favorite shows and programming on the site for a couple of hours a month at best.

Instead, I suggest purchasing a low-cost VPN like one of the VPNs on this list. They all work with RTÉ Player, provide super-fast speeds, and have a generous money-back guarantee — so you can try them out risk-free.

Question 3

Is it legal to use a VPN with RTÉ Player?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but using a VPN may go against RTÉ Player’s Terms and Conditions. Its Terms of Service agreements doesn’t explicitly prohibit using VPNs, but it does note that programs, shows, and other content on the site may not load properly or work at all while you’re connected to a VPN. RTÉ may also block you from accessing your account if it discovers you’re using a VPN.

This is why it’s important to use a top VPN like ExpressVPN, which works all of the time with RTÉ (though we still recommend checking the Terms & Conditions to make sure you’re not breaking any rules).

Question 4

Will a VPN slow down my RTÉ videos?

Accepted Answer

All VPNs cause slowdowns due to the encryption process, but the top ones maintain fast speeds. When my Irish colleague tested her speeds connected to a local server, her RTÉ shows and movies started almost immediately and there was only minimal buffering. While she was impressed with all of the VPNs on this list, ExpressVPN was the fastest.

Question 5

Do VPNs work in China?

Accepted Answer

Most VPNs don’t work in China. This is because the Chinese government has banned all unapproved VPNs and made a strong effort to block their traffic.

Government-approved VPNs are not great for security, however, as they are forced to give the government backdoor access. Fortunately, there are still some secure VPNs that work in the country, such as ExpressVPN (confirmed by customer support representatives). It also provides blazing-fast speeds and has excellent privacy and security features, making it the #1 VPN for China.

Question 6

What is the best VPN for China?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is my top pick for bypassing China’s firewall in 2024. It works well in China, it’s fast, it comes with excellent security features, and it has a very user-friendly interface.

Question 7

How do I use a VPN in China?

Accepted Answer

Bypassing China’s firewall with a VPN requires only 3 steps:

1. Get a reputable VPN before traveling to China. I recommend ExpressVPN because it has strong security, the fastest speeds on the market, and very intuitive apps.
2. Download and install the VPN. This process should only take a few minutes — just follow the installation wizard’s instructions.
3. Connect to a server. Open the app and select a nearby server for the fastest possible speeds. That’s it! You can now freely and securely browse the web in China.

Question 8

Can I use a free VPN for China?

Accepted Answer

China’s firewall blocks most free VPNs — so you’ll probably need a paid VPN service for the fastest and most reliable browsing. While some VPNs may offer a free plan that works in China, most have slower speeds and set a limit on your bandwidth.

The best option is to purchase a reasonably-priced VPN that will allow you to safely and securely browse the web in China with no restrictions. My top recommendation is ExpressVPN since it works in China, provides very fast speeds, and is ultra secure.

Question 9

Which country should I connect to in China?

Accepted Answer

It’s typically best to connect to a server in a nearby country, such as Japan or Singapore, as you’ll get the fastest possible speeds. That said, some VPNs have special server locations optimized to work well in China, and if your provider has a list of these, it’s best to try them first. If your VPN is not working properly, follow these troubleshooting steps.

Question 10

Is it legal to use a VPN in China?

Accepted Answer

The legality of VPNs in China is a legally gray area. Technically, China only allows using authorized VPNs — all of these VPNs have agreed to share user data with the Chinese government, so they won’t protect your privacy like the VPNs I recommend here. Also, many of these VPNs have to follow the restrictions set out by the Chinese government, so you won’t get access to the free web.

Authorities in China mostly target individuals that share unauthorized VPN and not those who use VPNs to get around restrictions. However, it’s crucial to stay informed about the current regulations and exercise caution, understanding the risks involved in using VPNs not sanctioned by the government.

Question 11

Can I download a VPN in China?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you’ll have to jump through hoops. Many VPN providers’ websites are blocked in China, making it difficult to download VPN apps directly once you’re in the country. This is why it’s best to download and set up your VPN before you visit China.

If you’re already in China without a VPN, some workarounds to get a VPN include using a mirror site, which you can get by emailing your VPN provider, or asking someone outside of China to send you the VPN installer via email or a cloud-sharing service.

Question 12

What’s the best cheap VPN?

Accepted Answer

Private Internet Access (PIA) is my top choice for the best cheap VPN in 2024. It has excellent security features, very fast speeds, works with all of the top streaming apps, supports torrenting on all servers in 91 countries, and offers very cheap prices, which start at $6.67 / month.

Question 13

Are cheap VPNs safe?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the VPN. Many cheap VPNs aren’t safe and some low-cost VPNs are actually dangerous — they lack essential security features, may log your online traffic, and leak your personal data on the internet.

However, all of the cheap VPNs I recommend are very safe. They have industry-standard security features (256-bit AES encryption, a kill switch, and a strict no-logs policy), protection against DNS, WebRTC, and IPv6 leaks, advanced security features like perfect forward secrecy, and also include extra features like split-tunneling and an ad blocker.

Question 14

How to get a cheap VPN?

Accepted Answer

There are 3 very quick and simple steps to get a cheap VPN in 2024:

Pick a reputable VPN. Choose a good VPN that offers cheap pricing (I recommend Private Internet Access, which starts at $2.03 / month).
Download and install the VPN app. It typically takes just a couple of minutes to download and install a cheap VPN on your devices — all you have to do is follow the in-app instructions. If you plan to install the VPN on multiple devices, check to see the number of simultaneous connections the provider allows — Private Internet Access allows unlimited connections.
Connect to a VPN server. Open the app, scroll through the list of server locations, and connect to a server — you can either use the quick-connect tool to connect to the fastest server based on your location, or you can manually choose any server.

Question 15

Do cheap VPNs work with Netflix and other streaming platforms?

Accepted Answer

Most cheap VPNs don’t work with Netflix and other popular streaming apps, but the VPNs I recommend do support Netflix and other streaming platforms.

Question 16

What is the best VPN for watching Amazon Prime?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is my top choice for watching content on Amazon Prime. It always works with Amazon Prime, it has some of the fastest streaming speeds on the market, it’s easy to use, and it also works with 100+ other streaming sites.

Question 17

Do all VPNs work with Amazon Prime?

Accepted Answer

No, not all VPNs work with Amazon Prime. Many streaming services like Amazon Prime block traffic from a VPN, but the VPNs I recommend all work with the site.

ExpressVPN is my favorite VPN for watching Amazon Prime because of its blazing-fast speeds and large server network (servers in 105 countries), so most users will be able to connect to a server in their home country to watch Amazon Prime.

Question 18

Can I watch Amazon Prime with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

Possibly, but I don’t recommend it — even the free VPNs that work with Amazon Prime usually limit the amount of data you’re allowed to use. For example, Windscribe’s free plan works with Amazon Prime, but it caps your data at 10 GB per month. Also, most free VPNs don’t work with Amazon Prime, lack security features, have slow speeds, and aren’t easy to use.

I strongly recommend that you purchase a good premium VPN like ExpressVPN, which works with Amazon Prime 100% of the time, maintains some of the fastest streaming speeds out there, has high-end security features, and provides unlimited data.

Question 19

Why does Amazon Prime have different content in different countries?

Accepted Answer

Due to copyright and licensing agreements. Amazon Prime has copyright and licensing agreements with multiple third parties for content to air only in select countries. For example, Amazon Prime may have the rights to air a movie in the US but not in the UK. If it aired the movie in the UK, Amazon Prime would violate the licensing agreement.

In theory, a good VPN can allow you to watch content outside of your current location, but that goes against Amazon Prime’s Terms of Service and may be seen as copyright infringement.

My top choice for watching Amazon Prime content is ExpressVPN, which has super-fast speeds, servers in 105 countries, and user-friendly apps for all of the major platforms.

Question 20

What is the best VPN for streaming BBC iPlayer content?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is my top choice for streaming BBC iPlayer — my colleagues in the UK confirmed it works with BBC iPlayer 100% of the time, it has some of the fastest streaming speeds on the market, it’s easy to use, and it also works with 100+ other streaming sites.

Question 21

Can I use a free VPN to watch BBC iPlayer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there are some decent free VPNs that work with BBC iPlayer like Windscribe. However, Windscribe only allows 10 GB of data per month, which is enough for about 5 hours of streaming in HD.

Generally, I don’t recommend that you use a free VPN because they typically don’t work with BBC iPlayer, lack important security features, have slow speeds, and set a limit on your data.

Honestly, it’s much better to purchase a low-cost premium VPN like ExpressVPN, which works with BBC iPlayer 24/7, includes unlimited data, maintains some of the fastest streaming speeds out there, and has high-end security features.

Question 22

Do I still need a TV license to watch BBC iPlayer with a VPN?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you must have a TV license to stream BBC iPlayer — even when using a VPN, you still need to have a valid BBC iPlayer account, which you can only get if you live in the UK and have a TV license.

Question 23

Where is Roobet available (and unavailable)?

Accepted Answer

Roobet is licensed to operate in Curaçao and is only available in certain countries in South and Central America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. This includes countries like Argentina, Venezuela, Columbia, Germany, and Belgium. Further verification requirements are required for countries like Angola, Barbados, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Congo, and Gabon.

Even in countries where Roobet does work, certain types of games will be unavailable. This is due to licensing for Roobet’s many forms of games, as well as local laws (for example, countries where sports betting is illegal cannot access the Sportsbook). To ensure you can access all of the features of Roobet that you are used to, I recommend only connecting to your home country to use the site.

For the best Roobet experience, I recommend ExpressVPN. It has a massive network with servers in Europe, South America, South Africa, the Middle East, and more, plus full leak protection and great speeds. Its plans are even covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee so you can try it worry-free.

Question 24

What is the best VPN to access Roobet?

Accepted Answer

ExpressVPN is the best VPN for accessing Roobet. It has servers in 25+ countries where you can consistently access Roobet, the fastest connection speeds, and industry-leading security features.

Question 25

Can I access Roobet with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

Maybe, but most free VPNs won’t be able to access sites like Roobet. But that’s not all — the majority of free VPN providers block off most of their servers (and features) behind paywalls, impose strict data limits, and significantly reduce your internet speeds.

To access Roobet without fail, I recommend a premium VPN like ExpressVPN. It features servers in 25+ locations that work with Roobet, and it gives you great speeds, high-end security, and is very easy to use. Plans start from $6.67 / month and are covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee so you can try the VPN worry-free.

Question 26

Why can’t I access Roobet while abroad?

Accepted Answer

Roobet is banned in certain countries, and it uses geo-blocks to prevent you from accessing your account in these countries.

A good VPN can help with this problem — by connecting to a VPN server in your home country, Roobet will actually think you’re located there, allowing you into your account.

ExpressVPN is the best option, as it has servers in 25+ countries where Roobet is allowed (including Argentina, Costa Rica, Chile, Columbia, and more) and it’s effective at getting you access to your account while abroad.

Question 27

Will Roobet work on my phone while abroad?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but you’ll need to use a VPN. Roobet works on iPhone and Android devices via their web browsers (there’s no official app yet). To access Roobet from your phone while abroad, you can check out our quick guides.

Question 28

Does Malaysia ban VPNs?

Accepted Answer

No, VPNs are perfectly legal in Malaysia. However, the country has strict internet censorship laws and it is illegal in Malaysia to use a VPN to engage in online activities that the government has banned.

If you need a good VPN to access Malaysian sites, I recommend ExpressVPN. It’s fast and secure, and it always gave me a Malaysian IP address in my tests.

Question 29

Can I use a free VPN to get a Malaysia IP address?

Accepted Answer

Probably not. Free VPNs have small server networks so they’re unlikely to have servers in places like Malaysia. For example, ProtonVPN’s free version is the best one out there, but it only gives you access to servers in three countries: the US, the Netherlands, and Japan. The best way to get a Malaysian IP address is with an affordable premium VPN, like ExpressVPN.

Question 30

How can I get an IP address in Malaysia?

Accepted Answer

The easiest way is with a VPN that has servers in Malaysia. You can connect to one of its servers in Malaysia, and it will replace your IP address with a new one that matches the location of that server — in this case, Malaysia. This way, you’ll be able to browse, torrent, and game as if you’re actually located in Malaysia.

All of the VPNs I recommend make it easy to get a Malaysian IP address — just follow these 3 simple steps.

Question 31

Which VPN has Malaysian servers?

Accepted Answer

Not many VPNs have servers in Malaysia. That said, I wouldn’t recommend every VPN that has servers there. A lot of VPNs don’t have the necessary security features to keep your connections safe and private, and there are some that might even collect and sell your data to third parties.

That’s why I always recommend a top VPN with servers in Malaysia, like ExpressVPN. It has excellent security and privacy features, top-notch streaming and torrenting support, and in my tests, it always provided me with a Malaysian IP address.

Question 32

Can I get a Puerto Rican IP address with a free VPN?

Accepted Answer

It’s technically possible, but I don’t recommend it. Free VPNs are very unlikely to have servers in Puerto Rico, plus they tend to have slow speeds, annoying data caps, and weak security. They probably won’t support streaming or torrenting either.

If you want a reliable, secure, and easy way to get a Puerto Rican IP address, I recommend a premium VPN with servers in Puerto Rico.

Question 33

How do I get a Puerto Rican IP address with a VPN?

Accepted Answer

Getting a Puerto Rican IP address with a VPN is extremely easy. All you have to do is download and install a VPN that has at least 1 Puerto Rican server (I recommend Surfshark), find Puerto Rico in the list of server locations, and click on it.

Question 34

Which VPNs have servers in Puerto Rico?

Accepted Answer

Surfshark, Proton VPN, and PureVPN all have servers in Puerto Rico. My #1 choice is Surfshark because it always gave me a Puerto Rican IP address in my tests, plus it has excellent security features and the fastest speeds for browsing, gaming, and torrenting.

Question 35

How to get an Indonesian IP address?

Accepted Answer

The best way to get an Indonesian IP address is to use a VPN with servers in Indonesia. By connecting to an Indonesian VPN server, your device’s IP address will be replaced with an Indonesian IP address. This will allow you to access content and websites that are restricted to Indonesian users only, as well as protect your online privacy and security.

Question 36

Can I get an Indonesian IP address with a VPN?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can get an Indonesian IP address with a VPN, by following these 3 easy steps. You’ll need to get a good VPN that has servers in Indonesia, — I recommend ExpressVPN — download and install the VPN app on your device and then connect to an Indonesian server. Once connected, your device will be assigned an Indonesian IP address, allowing you to access Indonesian content and websites from anywhere in the world.

Question 37

Can I use an Indonesian IP address on my phone?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use an Indonesian IP address on your phone by connecting to an Indonesian server through your VPN app. All VPNs on my list offer mobile apps for Android and iOS devices, making it easy to connect to an Indonesian server and access Indonesian content on your phone.

Question 38

Is it okay to use a free VPN to get an Indonesian IP address?

Accepted Answer

You might, but it’s highly unlikely — most free VPNs don’t have servers in Indonesia. I also don’t recommend using free VPNs as they may log and sell your data, show ads, or have limited server locations and speeds.

Instead, I recommend getting a premium VPN, like ExpressVPN. It has servers in Indonesia, great speeds, excellent security and privacy, and works with streaming sites.

Question 39

Which free VPN has a Ukrainian IP address?

Accepted Answer

You’re unlikely to get a Ukrainian IP address with a free VPN because most of them don’t include access to Ukrainian servers. I also don’t recommend using free VPNs because they come with a lot of limitations, such as slow speeds, limited number of servers you can use, limited bandwidth, and some of them might even share your data with third parties.

Instead, I recommend getting a premium VPN like ExpressVPN. It provides better security, faster speeds, and reliable performance.

Question 40

Can a VPN give me a Ukrainian IP address?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a VPN can give you a Ukrainian IP address. In my opinion, a VPN is the best way to get a Ukrainian IP address because it also encrypts your traffic and protects your security and privacy.

My no. 1 pick for getting a Ukrainian IP address is ExpressVPN — it’s fast and secure, has excellent streaming and torrenting support, and it’s very easy to use.

Question 41

Which VPN has a Ukrainian IP address?

Accepted Answer

Only a VPN that has servers in Ukraine can give you a Ukrainian IP address, like ExpressVPN, though some VPNs like CyberGhost, have virtual servers that are not located in Ukraine but can still give you a Ukrainian IP address.

Question 42

How do I connect my VPN to Ukraine?

Accepted Answer

You can connect to a Ukrainian server with any of the VPNs on my list by following these 3 easy steps. All you need to do is install the VPN app on your device, sign in with your credentials, find the Ukrainian server on the server list, and click to connect.

Question 43

用于澳大利亚最好的免费VPN是哪款？

Accepted Answer

排名第一的完全免费VPN是hide.me。其免费套餐提供每月10GB数据、1个连接、非常快的速度和出色的安全性。它不支持流媒体，但支持种子下载。

不过，ExpressVPN是用于澳大利亚最好的VPN。它没有免费套餐，但提供30天无风险退款保证。在这期间，用户可以使用ExpressVPN的所有功能，测试其在布里斯班、珀斯、墨尔本和悉尼快如闪电的服务器，进行浏览、播放流媒体、下载种子和打游戏。

Question 44

哪些免费澳大利亚VPN有浏览器插件？

Accepted Answer

本文列出的所有VPN都有适用于Chrome和Firefox的浏览器插件。ExpressVPN还有Microsoft Edge的插件。

Question 45

免费VPN在澳大利亚合法吗？

Accepted Answer

是的！没有法律禁止使用 VPN来保护自己的数据。然而，使用VPN开展犯罪活动仍然是违法的。

Question 46

免费VPN能否用于Netflix Australia？

Accepted Answer

很遗憾，大多数免费VPN都不能用于Netflix Australia。很多免费VPN的免费套餐甚至不允许播放流媒体。大多数支持流媒体的免费VPN也不包含对其澳大利亚服务器的访问（因此用户无法观看Netflix Australia），或者它们允许连接到澳大利亚服务器，但对用户可以使用的数据量设置了限制，非常少。

For watching Netflix Australia, I recommend getting a paid VPN like要观看Netflix Australia，我建议使用付费VPN，如ExpressVPN，它可以用于Netflix Australia以及10多个其他Netflix媒体库，完全没有任何问题。我们的国际团队对其进行了测试，表示他们都可以观看自己位置的Netflix，包括我在澳大利亚的同事。它速度极快，非常适合播放流媒体。
