Ok, I am actually seriously considering a VPN.
Most of you know me well enough to know I did my homework, and I ended up zeroing in on
PIA (Private Internet Access) VPN.
From what I can see it is a very good choice, I went over it with my boss (My wife Carol) :)
and she too thinks it is a good choice.
My question is does it deliver ? I would like to hear from actual PIA users in this community, seeing
I trust your input and opinions.
I don't want to hear about other solutions, please trust me I have used cyberghost VPN in the past for a short time, and when I say I did my homework that usually involves me messaging the dev's of each one I am interested in, not just reading reviews.
I would love to hear user experiences good or bad. I will be buying it Monday seeing I am off that day and not on call, so I can dedicate that day to configuring and tweaking it uninterrupted.
So if you have used it I have this whole weekend for user input and or advise. Any input on user experience, installing, configuring, what to do and "not do" will be most welcome.
Thanks.
PS: I have Email notifications on too and will be paying close attention to this thread.
EDIT: One more question, Will this bypass my DNS settings ? I use AdGuards DNS servers, I realize that it can prevent DNS leakage, but PIA wont override my DNS servers will it ?

does it deliver, yes it dose ,
installing, configuring , is easy as pie since it pretty much works right out of the Box so to speak ,
Will this bypass my DNS settings , I believe PIA uses its own DNS,
I have used PIA for a number of years ,
But have moved on to other solutions , my experiences with PIA were Good
