Frequently Asked Questions

Does the VPN just protect the Internet through my browser?

No, that's not the case. When you connect to a MetVPN server, your entire internet connection becomes secure, and your public IP address and location are masked. This applies to all the apps on your device that access the internet—they all go through the same protected VPN connection. So, the online services you use won't be able to see your real IP address or location.

Is the choice of web browser important when using MetVPN?

MetVPN seamlessly operates with the most recent versions of widely used internet browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, the Brave browser, and Google Chrome.

How can I optimize the speed of my VPN connection?

The speed of your VPN largely relies on your existing internet connection speed. If your Internet service provider offers a slow connection, using a VPN won't magically boost it.

However, there are straightforward ways to make the most of your VPN speed:

  • Choose a Nearby Server: Connect to a VPN server closer to your location.
  • Use UDP Instead of TCP: Consider using the UDP transmission protocol instead of TCP for your connection. If you are using the Desktop VPN client, you can find this option in the “Advanced” tab.

These steps can help optimize your VPN speed without much hassle.

I'm experiencing difficulties in establishing an Internet connection with MetVPN. What can I do?

If you're encountering connection problems with MetVPN, one of these issues may be the cause:

  • Verify your credentials: Ensure that you've entered the correct username and password provided in the "VPN Access Information" section of your Dashboard.
  • Server maintenance: If the server you're attempting to connect to is under maintenance, consider trying another server.
  • Network restrictions: It's possible that network restrictions are affecting your connection. In such cases, consider reaching out to your network administrator to discuss potential workarounds or adjustments to network settings that could improve VPN connectivity.
