Can I have good recommendations here. VPN for windows, purpose mostly streaming, privacy and accessing geo-locked content. (Reading blogs/ articles mostly)

It'd be a plus if it would help me in reducing in-game pings as well. One option I have is Best VPN but it does not talk about anything related to gaming. Although adequate stuff on privacy and streaming.


TIA, do put suggestions forward.

MrHarleyBen, I am relatively new to the VPN technology, probably less than 12 months and use a company recommended to me called Private Internet Access (PIA). They do what I want :paranoid:

To anyone, what is this thing reducing in-game pings as well?

I never use the VPN while gaming (Steam). Yesterday I was playing Quake Champions, well not really playing with 300+ ping, more like running around as cannon fodder. I commented I was in Australia and some other players (UK/Ukraine/USA) commented, what no Aussie servers? I don't see any AU servers :smirk:

Question: Should I use a VPN to reduce ping?

You should try not being so upset. I might also recommend the OP try posting in T&T.

https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/ is meant to be pretty good from what I've heard. Awful homepage though :o

I'm not upset at all. Just try to help. Maybe you and Obsidiot could get together and have a good cry about this.
