How does VPN Gate work?

• VPN Gate network consists of many VPN servers, which are provided by volunteers around the world.
• You can provide your own computer as a VPN server to join this experiment.
• Windows, Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Android are supported.
• Supports SSL-VPN (SoftEther VPN) protocol, L2TP/IPsec protocol, OpenVPN protocol, and Microsoft SSTP protocol.
• Anonymous connections are accepted.
• No user registrations are required.
• Each VPN server has a dynamic IP address. Therefore it may change at a random period.
• VPN servers appear and disappear at any time. Therefore, an IP address may not always connect to a VPN server.
• All VPN servers are capable of routing your traffic to the Internet, so you can disguise your real IP address.
• Using a server located somewhere other than your region may provide you some more accessible websites because the communication would look as if it is originated from the country the VPN server resides.

Features and Highlights

VPN can bypass the governmental firewall
If the governmental firewall is malfunctioning, or when some websites abroad are unreachable within the firewall, you can access them by relaying your connection to VPN servers located outside of your territory of residence.

VPN can hide your actual IP address
While your connection is relayed through a VPN server, the source IP address disclosed to the target server will be the VPN server's, not your actual one. This will be very helpful to you because nobody can trace back to your original IP address, eliminating the risk of being spied on. VPN enables you to post content on BBS or send emails completely anonymously, providing safety to just activists who intend to bring an accusation for public benefits. You will be safe from revenge or lawsuits by the accusee. Finally, even if your computer has been compromised by malware and hijacked by a criminal, VPN protects you from being framed up and thrown to jail because your actual IP address will be concealed.

VPN can prevent eavesdropping
When using a VPN, all transmissions will be automatically encrypted. Even if your local network is compromised by snoopers, your transmissions will remain intact. Note that this solution can only encrypt within the VPN tunnel, therefore packets forwarded from the VPN server to the destination are not within the scope of this solution. (i.e. it will not be encrypted.)
