MZurf Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 I'm looking at several VPN alternatives and it seems Hidemyass is a strong contender. Anyone out there with experience using this service in Thailand? If it helps I have a basic 3BB connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbay Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) You can use Zen VPN as a free addon in firefox, works well.It onlys works inside the browser though. If you want a VPN that works for things like torrents and the like then Privateinternetaccess does one and it is about $39 for a year. https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/ Edited July 11, 2015 by pbay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works well for me - I just renewed during the 50% off promotion - and I use it on 3BB/FTTx/50x10 and 3BB/DSL/15x1, on multiple PCs, tablets and android phones. I could run it in my router Asus RT N-16, but do not currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucidLucifer Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 https://invisibler.com/lulzsec-and-hidemyass/ Read and change your mind. Using HMA to cover your identity while hacking corporate websites is a slightly different proposition to using it to access websites restricted in LoS.

MZurf Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 I'm not intending to use the VPN for anything illegal. I just get more paranoid as I get older Seriously though, I see the use of a VPN as a plus for privacy concerns as well as for watching content that cannot be shown outside a certain geographical area.

Srikcir Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 https://invisibler.com/lulzsec-and-hidemyass/ Read and change your mind. HMA: "Our VPN service and VPN services in general are not designed to be used to commit illegal activity. It is very naive to think that by paying a subscription fee to a VPN service you are free to break the law without any consequences." Sounds more like peace of mind.

genobkk Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I have used overplay for years, they have a great SMART DNS feature that helps improve speed with geo locked streaming sites. I have noticed thier actual VPN not performing as well lately on my 3BB 30 MB fiber connection. I thought about trying HMA also but love overplay for the SMART DNS feature.

Tunnelbear which was a recommendation here. But only 1.5 GB free per month so no good for iplayers etc Zenmate premium which is being offered to me at 42 Euro Annual as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 See link. This might help. I personally use HMA, but the linked site goes for ExpressVPN. https://www.bestvpn.com/blog/15400/5-best-vpn-providers-for-2015/ I find VPN's a bit slow for downloading BBC iPlayer, but I don't know if that is the International gateway bottleneck that is the problem. For iPlayer, I find unblock.us is faster. They offer a free trial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 I use ipvanish and all I can say is, try the free service first, I didn't then found out that the uk national lottery can spot a vpn so I still can't access it whilst abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be able to access anything that's only allowed for your home country. Its 50$ per month though. It's the only one offering it in the entire world, i have about 30 accounts there for customers so its legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesekraft Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 look at mullvad and private internet access, I believe those are two of the best VPNs. Most VPNs will sell your data, so watch out for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand J Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Several sources online said HMA servers in US do not support torrents, their European serves do, but I can't confirm. I am using free version of Cyberghost 5 which doesn't support torrents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
