Planned for future: Changing VPN-Provider (currently: HideMyAss) without logging.

Remove HideMyAss, 2 hackers caught using this VPN i am using windscribe but there more private and trusted in the community like PIA i was using this before.

For password manager if free use LastPass and if you pay use Dashlane. Dashlane is the best on my opinion, i got 1 year account with Dashlane and i loved them but Lastpass have cloud sync on free accounts so i stay with LastPass for the time being.

Hey Antreas,
thanks for your reply. As VPN-Provider I will try Shellfire (already contacted them via mail). It's a german provider and they're following the german data privacy policys which might be much better compared to the USA.
As Password Manager I'm currently using the Kaspersky Password Manager and at first I disabled the cloud sync - it's also okay. I don't like to see my password files/saves on any cloud server.

u can look at Airvpn, perfect privacy if u want a quality vpn provider. u will not find a better one for Windows(Client) and how they handel things and privacy/protection. Windscribe seems to be nice too, but fearly new and the time only will tell how u can trust them.

I need a Provider with Router-Support. I won't let it run by Windows/Client.

never heard of that vpn but if they are from germany i hope they don't log much info and the servers is fast.
On premium they have limit on speed up to 12,000 kbit/sec and on premium plus no limit, this is bad you pay and you still get limits.

Why you don't sync on cloud your password? Kaspersky is trusted company with very strong security.

They have all router support as far as i know. But on a router it can happens that ur connections is slower because of the openvpn encryption. u need a powerfull router to get the full vpn speed, otherwise the windows client versions are better alternatives for speed.

They could use military standards and I still wouldn't trust them. Everything has leaks and is hackable.

I got it :) RT-AC88U with Dual-Core CPU 1,4GHz. At PPTP Connection I get a full-speed connection with OpenVPN I need to disable other features like DDOS-Protection, which is improving the router-performance.
