- patrakov 1y agoThey are one of the few VPN providers that give out public IPv4 addresses, and you can even get a static one. So, if you are using them for having a public IP, not for privacy, please continue doing so.
- lxgr 1y agoInteresting, do you know if they actually assign them to the VPN interface (rather than just passing through inbound connections to a public IP to the private IP of the VPN interface)? That could come in handy for hosting things behind double NAT.
- patrakov 1y agoThey assign it directly to the interface, and letting others connect to stuff behind CGNAT is indeed my use case. Two other VPNs working for this purpose are OVPN (+1 for them using WireGuard, but their Singapore node is slow) and SwissVPN (limited to only 30 Mbps by contract, but they do provide these contracted 30 Mbps).
- joecool1029 1y agoThere are better options for that. One of them: https://njal.la/ https://njal.la/ (this service was formerly known as IPredator and run by former piratebay/piratebyran people)
