how's it going everybody welcome back in a short video today addressing the myth that
vpns increase your internet speed that's not really how it works now there is an exception
but uh which is i mean something that's very rare generally but yeah i'll talk about it in just a
second after explaining how a vpn connection works uh but before we begin if you're interested in
any of these mentioned vpns you'll find links to special deals and discounts in the description
down below as well as full reviews if you'd like to know the ins and outs of these vpns now
imagine that this is the internet this little dot right here is uh represents
the internet and let's say you're in let's say you're in iceland okay
now when you connect to the internet without a vpn you're connecting from your isb servers
here in iceland all you know straight to the internet and it really is as simple as that
uh so of course that makes for the best possible internet connection you could get
however when you connect to a vpn and most likely when you're connecting to a vpn you're not looking
for servers within the same country so let's say the country that you connected to will be norway
you're gonna be connecting from your ip address right here so from iceland to norway it's gonna
the connection will be traveling all the way to norway and then to the internet so of course
uh logically speaking the longer the distance the slower your internet connection will become the
worse the ping you know that you'll have more pings so if you're going to be connecting
from iceland to miami and then straight back to the internet this is going to
uh cause uh speed drops in upload and download speeds as well as uh you'll be experiencing
worse ping much worse being in fact so you know if if you're looking for gaming for example
it's better that you stick within the same continent or region so now can a vpn improve
internet speed well under specific circumstances vpns can increase speeds for certain services
internet service providers or isps sometimes throttle or artificially slow down specific
types of traffic for example several major isps have throttled streaming services or streaming
entertainment services like netflix if an isp throttles communication speeds with specific
with a specific service a vpn could circumvent this throttling because the vpn encryption
will prevent the isp from knowing which services the user is communicating with so
under such circumstances of course you could improve your speed but the way a vpn works
uh it naturally slows down your speed so that's just how it works of course these three vpns uh
will minimize that decrease in speed uh you know to the best of their ability and their ability is
quite extraordinary these are the top three vpns for a reason in many lists not just my list so
you have expressvpn northvpn and surfshark expressvpn with uh over 3000 servers in 94
countries so that'll be able to unblock the most amount of streaming services from some of the
most obscure ones all the way to the uh most uh popular ones so for reference you have expressvpn
being able to unblock up to 18 netflix libraries nordvpn up to 10 and surfshark up to a healthy
balance of 15 libraries between the two here between express and nordvpn
now what i'd recommend is using the lightweight udp protocol with expressvpn for the best results
and that'll be nord links the powerful true wire guard protocol of nord lynx of north vpn
called north lynx and that'll be the uh just it's called well conveniently the wireguard protocol
uh so these protocols are super powerful and they will be your best uh
kind of choice here for the best connection and download speed uh possible so yeah if if that's
what you're looking for if you want to maximize your vpn's performance picking the right protocol
will uh do a lot and that'll be it for this video hopefully i answered your question and if you're
interested in any of these vpns you'll find links to special deals and discounts in the description
down below and if you're interested in getting to know these vpns in terms of privacy policy speed
