how's it going everybody welcome back and today we're going to be taking a look at the top three
vpns for your friends and family if you'd like to secure multiple devices without having to
use a router so you know ordinarily you would have to install your vpn on a router in order
to secure many devices or an unlimited amount of devices at that and once you install the vpn
on routers anything connected to that router will be secured on uh by the vpn of course so you know
problem with that is that some routers can be very expensive compatible routers uh anywhere between
one to three hundred dollars depending on the quality of the router or coverage uh of the
router so you know these vpns right here we've got atlas vpn private vpn and surfshark they're
some of the uh you know rare vpns that allow for a big number of devices to be secured with just one
subscription without having to use a router and specifically surfshark and atlas vpn which allow
for pretty much an unlimited number of devices to be secured uh private internet access comes with
more customization more features of course but it allows for 10 devices still which is
a quite a bit above the industry average so before we begin if you would like to check
for links to pricing discounts you'll find what you need in the description down below
as well as full reviews if you'd like to know more about these vpns with regards to their advantages
and disadvantages so keep that in mind if you guys are interested now i'm gonna go ahead and just
make this very short i don't want to make this uh video too long but long story short the surf shark
i think would be the best option for most people in this case because it's a vpn that is known for
being very cheap but it still packs a whole lot of services a whole lot of features and specifically
you know i know a lot of people want to use a vpn for unblocking streaming services because
uh too many streaming services have uh region locked shows or movies and having a subscription
with a streaming service without getting full access to the content that you paid for
is a little bit annoying so i know a lot of people just want to watch their favorite shows
before uh they go to sleep or after a long day of work and they're just not able to because they're
g restricted even though they're paying for that service surf shark is one of those services that
will allow you to get yourself a two year subscription for roughly sixty dollars and
it still packs a whole lot of features such as multihop and static ip these specialty servers
for example static company will always get you the same ip address uh and this is a service that is
actually not available in most vpns because it's usually a paid service but you can definitely get
your own dedicated ip but surfshark at least gives you the option like here are a few ips
that you can always go back to and get the same ip address multi-hop will route your connection
through two servers rather than one for extra security and then you've got connectivity here
you'll be getting whitelister which is split tunneling which will allow you to choose which
applications to route through the vpn connection or tunnel in which you would like to have bypass
the vpn tunnel it's a very useful feature uh the kill switch which will disable the internet
connection when the vpn disconnects unexpectedly it's a good feature especially for those living
in censorship-heavy countries you've got clean web which is an ad and malware blocker the wire guard
protocol very useful protocol super quick um and you've got the shadow socks protocol as well as
well as a handful of other protocols the shadow stocks protocol will allow you to reach banned
websites if you're in one of those countries that bans a whole bunch of websites for whatever reason
no borders mode will help you bypass the great firewall of china and most of all the one and
only vpn which for the longest time allowed users to secure an unlimited number of devices
until atlas vpn also made that a feature of their own vpn but surf shark is definitely the vpn
specifically if you want to unblock streaming services out of all these three vpns surf shark
will have the best uh streaming service unblocking capabilities so be sure to keep that in mind if
you're interested now let's move on to keep atlas until the very end because it's the simplest and
uh you know it's very simple to explain there's nothing uh too complicated about atlas besides
being even cheaper uh good for streaming services but definitely quite a bit less reliable than
surf shark but it will secure an unlimited number of devices in both their paid and free versions so
yeah but of course with the free version you're not going to be able to access any streaming
services whereas with atlas with surf shark of course you'll be getting access a very reliable
access stream resources um so with regards to private internet access now you won't be getting
an unlimited number of devices to be secured with just one subscription but you will be getting
plenty of features and still you're getting 10 devices 10 devices is plenty of devices to secure
with just one subscription and private internet access is by no means a inexpensive vpn it's in
the middle i would say it's not too cheap but it's not expensive whatsoever you do get a dark mode
just like surf shark which is very handy and you get some you know i'm not exactly sure what with
this tray icon style not exactly sure what this changes whatever i'll just keep it at classic
and um you know with privacy here you you definitely have a kill switch
you have the at the ad blocker and custom dns options so as you can tell we're starting to see
uh more options than surf shark of course private internet access is known for having quite a few
uh options in it uh and we'll see that in the connection part right here in just a second but
you also do get split tunneling of course and you get port forwarding and you get full port
forwarding access unlike a surf shark so if that's something you're interested in definitely check
that out and if you're not familiar with port forwarding i'll leave a link in the description
down below if you if you'd like to learn more about what port forwarding is or if you're not
sure what it is and you'd like to perhaps get into it and then we've got connection this is where it
gets very interesting of course you can pick your connection types between aes 128 and 256 and you
don't really see that much in uh you don't see this kind of customization in too many vpns rarely
really i only know if tor guard that allows you to do that so this is really cool because you know
aes 256 obviously is the best option for security but let's say you still want to go
with the udp connection type but you want a faster uh connection okay aes128 will take less time to
encrypt because obviously it's a weaker encryption not not that it's not secure most people well
even if the nsa wanted to decrypt as128 it would take a long time and it would be very difficult
and it would cost a whole lot so still this is very secure and it will still keep your connection
as fast as possible on a an open vpn connection if you want the fastest possible just switch
to wire guard and you're good to go even then you can you know play with the ports of course
don't change the ports if you're not familiar with that and like surf shark by the way you do have a
shadow socks protocol and socks five proxy which will allow you to reach band websites if you're in
a censorship heavy country um but of course you don't really need to use these unless you're in
such a private country and just be aware that these protocols will only secure your browser
traffic only so keep that in mind you can select between ports here which can also be very useful
um and yeah that's pretty much it if we go down to the automation this is where you can
just add some automation rules if you guys are interested in stuff like that with regards to
connecting and disconnecting depending on which connection or which network you're connecting to
and dedicated ip as you can tell this is a paid option here you cannot um you don't really have
any set or public dedicated ips uh you only have the option of getting your own dedicated ip which
will of course cost you quite a bit more uh so that'll be it for private internet access
again um i would like it does unblock streaming services but with regards to for example
netflix libraries surf shark will definitely unblock more netflix libraries you know i've
tried private internet access with a few strange services here and there it does work but with
regards to consistency and how consistent it is and reliable it is with unblocking stream services
i just can't bring myself to really recommend it over surf shark it's not going to work as
well so definitely go with surf shark cheaper option and better for streaming services if
you're looking for uh of course you know i guess just a few streaming services here and there
you know you could let me know which streaming service you would like me to test with let's
say private internet access or surf shark or atlas for that matter and i'll go ahead and
make a video about that so that you know exactly um whether or not you want to get this vpn because
maybe some of you guys might just want to unblock amazon prime and that's all you care about or hulu
and you're not sure but and you also like let's say the customization options here with private
internet access but you're not sure whether or not it unblocks these streaming services
so i can go ahead and do the testing for you guys and with regards to atlas um again just to recap
surfshark unblocks an unlimited number of devices with just one subscription being
very cheap a private internet access a little bit more expensive it will let you unblock up to 10
devices but it gives you a whole bunch of features including port forwarding and you know custom dns
so on and so forth and you've got atlas vpn with little to no features pretty much no features here
the only thing you're getting is uh well the least number of uh the locations here you don't really
get many locations um but you do get uh just enough for you to unblock a few streaming services
here and there in europe and stuff uh with the settings of course you're getting a kill switch
and um that's about it that's all you get uh and with regards to the start on launch option yeah
that's that's really all you get nothing else you do get a wire guard protocol which is pretty good
and the ik ev2 definitely stick with wire guard and that's all you're going to need uh the kill
switch is also there so yeah you don't really get much atlas is a very simple vpn it's super cheap
and you know it being that cheap it means that well you're only getting for what you're paying
for uh but again the three year plan is uh super cheap you know you're getting you're
paying roughly 50 bucks for a three-year plan for a vpn that's well you know pretty generous when
it comes to allowing people to secure unlimited number of devices just one subscription um not too
many servers definitely nowhere near uh surf shark or private vpn but enough again if you want me to
test atlas private internet access or surf shark with certain services to make
sure that they do unblock them successfully let me know and i'll go ahead and do that
so that'll be it for this video again if you guys are interested in learning more about these
vpns you'll find links to reviews down below as well as links to pricing discounts besides that
thank you guys very much for watching i'll see you guys next one have a wonderful day
