Just tried the speedtest.net out and apperently it does 3x my upload speed. Never knew a VPN could actually boost your speed.

Wow thats crazy that it actually boosts your internet speed instead of slowing it down. I've used PIA but it only maintened my normal internet speed.

diff types of VPN protocols.

What client software do you use to connect to your vpn ?

pia client. with full encryption. I haven't touched my vpn in like a long while now. With mining+vpn, ping is harsher. I'll be back on it once I get my rasberry PI to run my gridseed/future gridseeds.

My internet is just much faster with pia than alone with my ISP. It's like with vpn, it cuts through all the bs that the ISP has. :s

Most people use the OpenVPN protocol with whatever client the VPN provider offers.

I did some real world tests rather than speedtest.net.

http://www.thinkbroadband.com/download.html

downloaded the 1gig with pia closes server mideast, got 3.61MB/s, without PIA I got 6.31MB/s.

disappointing.

shit, mideast jumps me to 124 but stopped at 118.



My connection is a 50 mbps.

We changed to a 1000mbps linksys hub from a 100mbps linksys hub, connecting to a 1000mbps router which connects to a 1000mbps modem by motorola.

PIA east server boosts my connection by 26mbps.

Normal connection I get 58mbps, connected to east PIA, it jumps me to 84mbps!

Crazy.

Edit:
It jumps from 80-87mbps.
