Looking for testers of our new UK VPN Service (OpenVPN based)

HostMediaHostMedia Member, Patron Provider

Hello everyone!

We are hoping to get some friendly but honest feedback on our OpenVPN based VPN network that we are going to be launching in the coming months. Initially our services (like our hosting) will be focused on UK located services and then expanding out to other locations. What we want to do is not rush anything so we can take a good look at how the network/server setup, etc handles and if goes well it will be a template going forward to other locations.

We are looking for up to 50 users (this might increase depending on our tests), you will need to register an account on our website but we will DM all the details to those that get selected based on the below requirements :smile:

Tester Requirements
Nice and simple, you must have been a LET member for longer than 1 year, have at least made 50 comments and to opt-in just reply to this thread with "HELP BUILD A BETTER VPN SERVICE"
Please allow 1-2 business days for us to DM you, if we don't DM you we may have reached our tester limit or just being a little slow :wink:

Little bit about the VPN setup
As this is early stages of our VPN service, we are relying on OpenVPN/3rd Party apps for desktop and mobile (plans are on our roadmap for our own apps), you will be able to download a .ovpn file to use on any supported client you want. We have spent a good amount focusing on the hardware/networks with 10Gbps networks plugged directly in to be able to handle the traffic load (no shared networks here).
Each VPN account can have up to 10 devices connected at one time, so free feel to add to all your devices. There is no logging, we won't track you usage or how you use the VPN, the only "logs" is a user reference with the number of connected devices and that is it. You can track the number of connected devices via our client portal.

What you get out of being a tester
Apart from helping us, you will be able to use the VPN for an entire month for free, once you have provided your feedback and we have gone live with our product in the future you will be emailed a one-time code for a large recurring discount code for the VPN service :smiley:

High-Level Roadmap
* Dedicated IP/Instances for a single VPN location
* Reseller features
* Provide a WireGuard alternative
* VPN Desktop Apps (Windows & MacOS)
* VPN Mobile Apps (Android & iOS)

Thanks in advanced and look forward to working with you :smile:

  • Just curious, why OpenVPN? Wireguard is much more performant for most usecases.

    We have been working with OpenVPN for some time and already had the basis of our VPN network so wanted to kick off with that first, but as per the roadmap, Wireguard will be implemented :smile:

    We will keep you in mind as there is always a chance our testing period will extend for a couple months - you never know :wink:

    Sir, it pains me to say this, but you are very close to being considered a disgrace to this fine community. When a provider politely requests that certain conditions be met in order to apply for an offer, and you blatantly and brazenly disregard those conditions, you embarrass us all. I request you remove your application forthwith, lest you bring further shame on this place.
