They are not the best because they no longer support port forwarding. Their IPs are low quality and get you flagged as suspicious.

- dr00tb 11mo agoCan recommend https://njal.la https://njal.la if you still need port forwarding.
- bossyTeacher 11mo agohow does it compare to mullvad?
- KomoD 11mo agoOne reason not to choose Njalla is that they changed their legal entity without (to my knowledge) telling anyone. THat's a bit of a red flag for me. They were incorporated as 1337 Services LLC in Nevis (the Caribbean island) and recently it suddenly changed to Njalla SRL in Costa Rica. Looks like some guy wrote a post about it where he contacted them, they said "internal restructuring, nothing to worry about" and refused to elaborate further. I know Peter Sunde (of TPB fame) founded it but I don't know if it has changed hands now.

- newdee 11mo agoWhich VPN provider doesn’t have their addresses flagged? I know a few offer “residential” IP addresses (for quite the premium), but as I understand it, these are a bit of a grey area and are also usually shared, so usually just a matter of time until they’re banned or flagged as proxy/shared/anonymiser.
- charcircuit 11mo agoThe financial incentives for VPNs as they get bigger cause them to both put as many subscribers on the same IP as possible and to share IPs over the entire subscriber base. It's possible for a VPN to sacrifice profit to avoid being detected as easily.
- HNisCIS 11mo agoTbh between that and cgnat I'm kinda hoping that the entire ipv4 space gets sufficiently tainted that sites stop blocking by ip
- friend-monoid 11mo agoAre you expecting a public IPv4 from a VPN?
- aaomidi 11mo agoAirvpn does it
- greatquux 11mo agoYep they are great! Wireguard support on Linux too
- pteraspidomorph 11mo agoI'm happy Airvpn is rarely mentioned in mainstream vpn lists and don't typically mention them myself (sorry airvpn folks, but here's my apology) because I suspect its relative obscurity is in great part the reason it works so well. Not only reputation - it's technologically good too, supports all the payment methods, good prices, lots of exit points, no nonsense. I've been using them continuously for several years.
- zrm 11mo agoA VPN provider could easily support Port Control Protocol / NAT-PMP without giving each VPN client its own public IPv4.
- Dylan16807 11mo agoNot a whole public IPv4, just one port on it (or a couple). And the public IP should change every reconnect.
- edm0nd 11mo agoThey had to disable port forwarding due to abuse and spam iirc.
- dheera 11mo agoMullvad is one of the few that work in China today, any others? Or is it possible to run your own Mullvad server? Rolling your own L2TP/IPSec gets flagged by the China firewall these days
- endgame 11mo agoWhich other VPN providers support the range of payment methods that Mullvad does?
