OpenVPN is suited better for bypassing firewalls.
Their TCP proto is very nice.
However, @MannDude can take a look at https://github.com/mullvad/udp-over-tcp
You can make Wireguard mask better.
used it the whole day. rock solid. speed perfect. NL works fine.
does anyone mind sharing NL vpn server hostname/ip?
I don't want to claim a slot because I'm unlikely to use it a long run.
I just want to check a few things
thanks
23.137.250.9 if my investigation skills are useful.
Maybe the IP's they give aren't same for everyone. That is different from one the one I was assigned.
Maybe its that one or the .6 I think. I am bored.
now .nl location fucked up.
More than one is in use per location. PM me and I can give you a more specific answer.
tested from Indonesia , home network.
ISP:
PT Kingpolah Network Solutions

No need anymore, 1 was enough for me(was dm'ed to me).
Thanks anyways.
Grabbed one. Thanks for the goodie.
Worldstreams peering with DTAG is the worst connection you'll ever see imho
You get better peerings to Australia or the US than WS NL from DTAG (on the route via Amsterdam, haven't seen a route via Frankfurt yet). ymmv.
(At least as long you don't pay for their premium-network upgrade at about $99/month/server....)
Edit: sorry for offtopic. The service and beta tests offered by MannDude looks great.
I'm just so frustrated about the DTAG<->WS routes that I always jump when I see someone mentioning it. And WS network is great in general, just not in peering with DTAG where you can go down to bits per second throughput...
Direct connection (Telefonica, Germany)
261.15 Mbps / 42.93 Mbps, 5ms

IncogNET VPN NL
41.72 Mbps / 40.54 Mbps, 30ms

I'd expect better speeds from Germany, even if this is capped at 100Mbps. Luxembourg may serve you better when it's ready.
Would like to wait for NYC location opening.
Maybe later today
So far, what I'm discovering is, I may have over estimated resource needs for this. The Idaho server has 150 peers added to it, 10 currently active.
Resource wise, I'm not seeing RAM really ever go above 200MB and CPU load is always at 0.05 or less.
I'll probably remove all of the profiles that haven't connected and re-open the Idaho beta so I can get a better picture of what heavier usage of the service may look like.
That's the last 48 hours. Much less than I, or likely most of you, may have imagined.
Question: Any interest in being able to spin up multiple configurations for the same location with your own dedicated IP? For example, you get a NY VPN with your own dedicated IP, and you can great, say, 5 WG profiles on your own private network? Can enable internal networking so your different devices can communicate over 10.1.2.0/24 or whatever is assigned to you.
Would be nice if It had port forwarding. Similar to what OVPN offers.
Dedicated IP + Open Ports, can be useful for a "reverse proxy" etc.
However you would either have to develop a system that does not directly link dedicated IP back to the customer, or utilize some really nice law so even American IP's are dmca "ignored"(just like with "classic" vpn providers).
Usually Worldstream works great for me.
Cyberghost claims to have done that.
OVPN for example forwards abuse reports back to the customer, but not DMCA from what I remember.
From AT&T Internet, Texas:
Direct Connection to SpeedTest server (HostSailor Ltd, Naaldwijk)
DL 105| UL 152
Through NL to the same SpeedTest server
DL 38.3| UL 28.8 Mbit
I was late to the 'beta', but got this.
In what way? They both make outgoing connections to well known ports. Then it becomes DPI targeted specifically to block it, just like anything.
You're doing it wrong.
NEW YORK TEST: https://portal.incognet.io/cart.php?a=add&pid=115
Not quite full port speed, but up there.
Through NY:
DL|UL
78.1|71.4
https://www.speedtest.net/result/a/9070701569
Direct Connection:
164 | 124

Remember that I'm capping speeds at 100Mbps on these, so you'll never see more than that.
Has anyone had any issues with ad blocking being too aggressive? Less than 10% of requests have been blocked, but I didn't want to be too aggressive with the blocklists.
I may do these with different DNS settings:
The way things are set now, things are set with option 2 from above.
OpenVPN has many built in obfuscation methods, they only work with TCP, many networks have udp blocked entirely.
Its slowly changing, but still - udp is well suited for bypassing firewalls, tcp is even better due to its use literally everywhere, blocking it will disconnect you from many services.
Due to wide TCP use, you can made certain packets to look like something commonly used.
Speedtests from Philadelphia-area Verizon Fios (AS701) connection:
To Intermax Networks - Coeur d'Alene, ID:
Direct: 81 ms, 505.45 Mbps down, 330.14 Mbps up
Through Idaho VPN: 80 ms, 95.97 Mbps down, 93.18 Mbps up
To 31173 Services AB - Amsterdam:
Direct: 92 ms, 498.77 Mbps down, 242.69 Mbps up
Through Netherlands VPN: 96 ms, 43.65 Mbps down, 66.35 Mbps up
To Clouvider Ltd - New York, NY:
Direct: 8 ms, 450.36 Mbps down, 512.11 Mbps up
Through New York VPN: 12 ms, 95.86 Mbps down, 90.05 Mbps up
The speed through the Netherlands VPN is quite slow. Using Mullvad's Amsterdam servers for comparison, to the same 31173 Amsterdam speedtest server:
Through 31173: 97 ms, 305.32 Mbps down, 137.46 Mbps up
Through DataPacket: 92 ms, 323.28 Mbps down, 257.89 Mbps up
Through xtom: 96 ms, 285.33 Mbps down, 184.57 Mbps up
In case it's helpful, here's a traceroute to the Netherlands VPN server:
Location - Vancouver 1Gbps up/down
CDA not provisioned, can't test.
NL VPN: 14.16D/22.60U 156ms ping https://www.speedtest.net/result/14367101868
NL Direct: 289.07D/102.03U 147ms ping
NY VPN: 96.24D/85.87U 64ms ping
NY Direct: 782.24D/172.93U 72ms ping
Much better than NL, everything feels snappy.
