I've activated it and signed in with my Google account, but I can't seem to browse,perhaps because I don't live in one of the specified countries:

:unsure:


P.S. After the test, remember to log out of both the VPN and any synchronization services.

Doesn't work for me either.

Has anyone on the forum tested the VPN's browsing speed (using a server in the United States)?
The VPN can be removed from the toolbar.

If the VPN isn't available by default in your Firefox, you can enable it manually by:

Code: 
about:config

browser.ipProtection.enabled set to true

In Germany: download 512 Mbps, upload 241 Mbps

Would it be possible to run a Speedometer 3.1 test with or without a VPN?
Thank you.

Man... you're so obsessed with Speedometer thingy—a test that doesn't show you as a user anything important. I already said that the tool is made by browser devs in order to show the areas where they can improve; nothing else.

Beside, internet connection speed doesn't have anything to do with the score you get on it. You can take the test on 100 Mb/s and 1 Gb/s, and it will show exact same result as it doesn't measure your speed rather than hardware of your PC and standards web browser supports.

I mean, I get a normal (lower) score on Firefox than on Brave, but Firefox loads websites faster for me. If this doesn't tell you how important the test is, then I don't know what will show you.

I've already told you this too it only happens in your Firefox.
It's not an obsession, it's just curiosity.

You are an expert; you can make tweaks deep in FF advanced settings boosting its performance.

I could... but I won't. I changed only minor things like disabled translation, enabled the compact mode and such. I believe changing things I'm not sure of could lead to negative consequences.
