Guides and notes about VPNs, online privacy, and how BetterVPN works.
A dedicated IP gives you an IP address that is assigned only to you, instead of one shared with many VPN users. Here is how dedicated IPs differ from shared IPs, when they can reduce friction like CAPTCHAs or allowlist issues, and how BetterVPN’s Dedicated IP add-on compares with a Dedicated Server.
Public Wi-Fi is convenient, but you do not control the network. Here is what is actually risky, what a VPN fixes, what it does not, and a quick checklist for your next trip.
Split tunneling lets some traffic skip the VPN. Here is when that helps, when an always-on tunnel is safer, and how it works with a kill switch in BetterVPN.
A VPN kill switch helps prevent accidental exposure if your VPN connection drops. Here is what it does, who should keep it on, and how split tunneling fits into the picture.
A VPN that says Connected is not proof. Run four quick tests (IP, DNS, WebRTC, and kill switch) so you know your traffic is actually protected.
