Q: What is the best VPN to use in August 2013 to get on the American web (use netflix and such)?

I used to use hidemyass, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.  I use freegate but it can be slow.  Some recommend oneclickVPN and strongVPN.   Any others you think that don't break the bank?

The best VPN will always be to have a nerd-friend in your home country set up a VPN for you, of course that friend needs to have a decent internet connection that can handle the additional traffic.

EarthVPN - doesn't break the bank at 4 dollars a month, or 40 dollars for the whole year. Fast, reliable and has never had any problems in China.

Well,China is great but thinking about the internet really made me crazy, I read a review from a vpn provider "Saturnvpn.com" that some one already used it in China and that was OK there.As it was cheap I bought an account for 2Month and for $5 before I leave for China,I was not sure if it really works or not.When I got there the first thing I tried was the Internet and I saw that allmost all the websites are blocked.I hited the vpn connect button, and in just few seconds it says you are connected, I tried to access some blocked websites and yes! It worked. no problem! There are 3 protocols PPTP, L2TP and OpenVPN saturnvpn offers.And when you buy a account, You can use all of them.I could connect using PPTP at the hotel. But I was in a resturant and PPTP didn't work, So I tried OpenVPN and as saturnVPN  staff said, OpenVPN works even in saturn! It worked like a charm.I know many of you who want to travel to china are looking for a service to bypass the censorship there and this is my recommendation. http://saturnvpn.com It has also free test account and you can test the service before you pay.

I don't think we need VPN or free gate .  Goaqent software usually works with Google and you can open Facebook or YouTube in seconds . Most importantly ,it's totally free .

 

Pls contact me freely if you have any questions about installation .

Pure Vpn are currently having a special. 50 USD for a year and they allow 2 simultaneous logins with the same account. They have 7 or 8 US servers that you can use plus servers from other countries, Iv used HMA before and it cost too much in comparison.
