FastestVPN for Windows

Secured privacy with this speedy VPN

FastestVPN is a security and privacy program that allows you to protect your data while you’re online. A VPN service available on various platforms, the app is easy to set up and offers the standard fare of features and more, enabling you to take control of your own privacy while avoiding cutting corners with its speed and reliability.

Lots of VPN goodies

FastestVPN has most of the VPN features you’re familiar with. As a VPN, this program lets you hide your IP while surfing online. With this, you can access geo-restricted content and torrent files anonymously while securing your data from hackers. This VPN has over 350 servers in more than 30 countries. While these numbers are small compared to other VPNs, almost all of the servers support P2P traffic, unlimited bandwidth, and are optimized for speedy torrenting.

If you prefer streaming, on the other hand, this VPN service also supports US Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime. It even has a dedicated server for it, accessible in the Locations tab. You can safely watch online as this program has 256-bit AES encryption, free NAT firewall, free malware protection, and a free adblocker feature. The last two are enabled by default. Not only that, but it’s cautious with your collected information—having a Zero Log Policy and only remembering your username, password, and login attempts—so your privacy is guaranteed.

However, it’s quite flexible with the platforms you use it on, allowing ten simultaneous multi-logins for one account on any type of device. There are updated apps for Windows, Apple, Linux, Android, Roku, Kodi, and Amazon Fire TV Stick. It also has browser extensions for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. Plus, it supports other devices such as Apple TV, Smart TV, PlayStation, and Android TV box.

Take control with confidence

FastestVPN is simple to configure, with its newly-designed straightforward interface. The left sidebar menu holds five options: Home, About, Account, Locations, and Logout. Home is your dashboard, displaying what server, country, and IP address you’re connected to. It is also where you can access the settings options. Under settings, you can configure your VPN protocol. You can choose to use L2TP, PPTP, TCP, and UDP, or stick to the default IKEv2. TCP and UDP are new choices for the iOS app, while IKEv2 is the latest protocol for the Android version.

For general settings, you can choose whether the program launches at startup, reconnects you if your connection drops, or disconnects upon exiting the application. There’s an Internet Kill Switch that stops all internet traffic and connection when activated. Connecting to a server is easy. If it is hard to choose, you can enable the Smart Connect feature. It finds the fastest available VPN server—usually somewhere near you. Another cool feature is Split Tunneling, which enables you to choose which apps will use the VPN or not.

Lastly, there are four subscription plans: the 1-Month Plan, the 1-Year Plan, the 3-Year Plan, and the 5-Year Plan. They all have the aforementioned features, plus 24/7 customer support via live chat. The only differences lie in the extra cost for additional logins beyond the free ten multi-login, and how much money you’ll save compared to the other plans. Unfortunately, there’s no free trial. But, it has a 15-day money-back guarantee, and you can use either your credit card or your PayPal for the payment method.

Speed is highly welcomed

Considering its features, FastestVPN can surely compete with the popular VPN services of today. It gives you more control over your online security and is available for several platforms that you can log onto simultaneously. This VPN’s server reach is still small, and you can’t download any free trial, but the speed and stability of its service are promising.
