Advice Request Need recommendation for Chrome browser extension VPN

[generalwu]

Hi,

I'm looking for some recommendation for VPN that's a chrome extension.

Currently I'm using PIA VPN on my Chromebook and would like to have a VPN/proxy extension to compliment my surfing experience.

I got burn by subscribing to Gom VPN which is unstable for my past one month experience.

It couldn't even stream youtube in HD format and I had to disconnect to stream Spotify.

Previously I was using Zenmate VPN which was great but I have ran out of license and the subscription is too much for me to swallow right now.

Many thanks.

DotVPN — better than VPN.

Betternet

Keep in mind that Betternet is the only one of the 3 that states in their privacy policy that they share information with a third party ad company. As will be the case with any free VPN.

@Alkajak Thanks for the recommendations, will check it out.

However since both VPN does have a free option provided, does that mean that I'm also the product (Possibly compromised)?

DotVPN does look nice.

I don't mind paying but it has to be reliable.

Many thanks.

DotVPN used to work like a charm, now nothing seems to work, no matter which country you choose. And it's not just me, there are dozens of one-star reviews on webstore in the past few weeks.

Testing with ipleak.net test shows webrtc not blocked by any means in chrome when using free extensions DOT , Hoxx etc , and Chrome extension web rtc leak prevent does not work .I use Hoxx free Vpn extension in Slimjet a browser itself that does block WebRTC, or Hoxx in Firefox where add on webrtc disable does block .I use Google or Open Dns to make DNS tracking difficult/impossible. Hoxx has 12 servers in Uk & many more worlwide and its free. I test with Ipleak test and my ip address & Webrtc never shown at all using these methods.

@broughie Hi are you saying that you recommend Hoxx VPN extension? And second in place is DOT VPN?

@mal1 Sounds like it's not as reliable as it seems.

Back to square one again.

Hi Yes I prefer Hoxx extn now, Dot only has 1 UK server and become unreliable. Hoxx I find fast and reliable with encryption & 12 UK servers & over 100 worlwide.I only use with Slimjet(Chrome based) & Firefox as Chrome leaks Webrtc ( Local ip / router & proxy address ) I find IPLeak. net Test gives me instant privacy test of IPAddress, WebRtc (if leak) & DNS.
Cyberghost most secure free vpn ive tried with own DNS but long wait to connect with nearest server & 3 hour browse limit.

Yuo could try ZenMate it works quite well. ZenMate VPN - Best Cyber Security & Unblock

 

[generalwu]

@broughie Cool, I'll take note of the extension. Thanks for the recommendation.

@frogboy You're right, I was using Zenmate VPN previously but ran out of subscription.
I have no problem with them except with the cost of the VPN (Can totally subscribe a actual secured VPN).
But thanks anyway.

I guess I'll stick with them for a while or try some other VPN extension.

@Petrovic Thank you for the recommendation, it's actually working well with me for the short period of time that I had with it.

Will continue to monitor it.

Which VPN to chrome is now the best ?

 

[generalwu]

@neon Hi, I recommend Zenmate and Tunnello (I'm using it now) VPN extension.

 

[King Alpha]

I highly recommend ZenMate.

 

[Deleted member 2913]

I recommend Windscribe VPN

 

[neon]

Zenmate vs Tunnelo which better ?
I am going to use only sometimes because some webs need to change my location.

 

[broughie]

Some of my non financial/financial websites where I hold accounts only accept same country vpn servers, in my case UK. Zenmate no good to me as limited servers and none uk. Tunnelo vgood as lots international servers but only one uk. Hoxx even more servers & 10 Uk servers when I need to alternate them. I use both in chrome & hoxx works better for me in ffox. Both pass the IPLeak.Net test but i have Google Dns not isp one.
