Q: 💡 Can a router help me get more device connections with my VPN?

Yes, it can! If you have a lot of devices to cover, like in an office setting, you can set up a VPN connection on your router. By encrypting your router connection, every device that connects to the router is protected. You don’t have to set up a VPN on individual devices, which is especially useful if you have a device that isn’t supported by a VPN. As a bonus, it only counts as 1 device connection when you connect your VPN to your router. This means you can still use every other VPN connection on individual devices. There are step-by-step guides for setting up a VPN with your router . The instructions will vary depending on the kind of router you have.

Q: 💰 Can I use a free VPN for torrenting?

Using a free VPN is not the best option for torrenting. There are some reliable free VPNs available but they are limited when it comes to P2P file sharing. Reputable free VPNs have to make revenue. They do this by limiting your data allowance, download speeds, and server options to prioritize the service for paying users. Some free VPNs have strong encryption and security features , but restrict your data to 500MB or less per month. If you regularly engage in torrenting, you know that this small data allowance won’t allow you to download much. Not all free VPNs are so strict when it comes to security. To make money, free VPNs have been known to log and sell your data to third parties and advertisers . This compromises your data security and puts you at risk of being targeted by hackers and spies.

Question 1

❓ Why is it important to use a VPN with all of my devices?

Accepted Answer

It’s important to set up a VPN connection for every device because we all have more than one device we regularly use. It makes sense to protect your main device with a VPN, like a computer for sensitive work or school information. But you probably check emails on your phone, bank online with your tablet, and even make purchases using your game consoles. Performing these actions without the protection of a VPN leaves your data exposed. Buying VPN plans for each device is costly — purchasing a subscription to a quality VPN that offers multiple connections is much better value. By using a single VPN with multiple device connections, you can get full protection for your home or small business with minimal fuss. Just download the VPN app to every device and you’re able to stream, browse, and download while your online activity is anonymous.

Question 2

💡 Can a router help me get more device connections with my VPN?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it can! If you have a lot of devices to cover, like in an office setting, you can set up a VPN connection on your router. By encrypting your router connection, every device that connects to the router is protected. You don’t have to set up a VPN on individual devices, which is especially useful if you have a device that isn’t supported by a VPN. As a bonus, it only counts as 1 device connection when you connect your VPN to your router. This means you can still use every other VPN connection on individual devices. There are step-by-step guides for setting up a VPN with your router. The instructions will vary depending on the kind of router you have.

Question 3

💰 Can I use a free VPN to get multiple device connections?

Accepted Answer

You can, but most free VPNs don’t offer multiple device support on one account. There are a few notable exceptions, like Windscribe and TunnelBear, which are two of the best free VPNs available. These free VPNs let you add more devices but still limit your server connections, data allowance, and download speeds. Any buffering, lag, or slow speeds you experience with one connection will increase with every extra device you add.

Some unreliable free VPNs have been known to log user data and sell it to third parties and advertisers to make money. Using a free VPN without a trustworthy privacy policy compromises your data security. Rather than putting your information at risk, you can try a premium VPN for free by using its money-back guarantee. This way, you can try the service at no risk and get a full refund if you change your mind about a subscription.

Question 4

🔍 Is Google Chrome’s incognito mode really anonymous?

Accepted Answer

No, incognito mode won’t encrypt your online activity or make you anonymous. When you go incognito, Chrome clearly states that your activity can still be seen by websites you visit, your ISP, and the network administrators (like your school or employer).

Incognito mode won’t hide your internet activity

Incognito mode is useful if you don’t want your browsing history or log in details saved. If other people use Chrome on your device, they won’t be able to see which sites you’ve visited or log in to accounts you accessed while using incognito mode.

Question 5

💰 Which free VPNs for Chrome should I avoid?

Accepted Answer

With so many free VPNs available to download, it’s important to make sure you only use a VPN you can trust. Here are a couple of free VPNs you should never use with Chrome:

Hola VPN

While this service downloads and installs to your Chrome browser effortlessly, it should be avoided at all costs. , so any information sent or received from sites is easily read and identified. It also logs a huge amount of your information during use, including the websites you visit and your personal identifying data. To make money, this service then shares your information with unknown third-parties.

Cross VPN

Cross VPN was flagged for containing potential trojan viruses by VirusTotal, a site that analyzes files and URLs to detect malware. Cross VPN has an AV-rank of 11, meaning it tested positive for malware on 11 different antivirus programs. Downloading this free VPN to use with Chrome puts your device at risk of being infected with malicious software.

Question 6

❓Will a VPN slow down my browsing speed?

Accepted Answer

Whether you’re using a free VPN or a premium VPN, you are likely to experience at least a small drop in speed. This is because your traffic goes through the encryption process before connecting to the internet, which impacts your speed. If you use a free VPN with server and bandwidth limitations, you’re likely to experience a more noticeable drop, particularly if you connect at high-traffic times. In the UK, that’s typically between 7pm and 11pm GMT. I ran a speed test for every free VPN on my list during peak connection times in the UK. I connected to the fastest available server for each VPN and compared it to my regular ISP speed. Here are the results:

VPN Name and Server Location	Standard ISP Speed (Mbps)	Fastest Server at Peak Connection Time (Mbps)	Speed Drop in Mbps
NordVPN - UK	52.15	45.49	-6.66
ProtonVPN - France	52.15	43.48	-8.67
Windscribe - UK	52.15	43.45	-8.7
Hide.me - Netherlands	52.15	29.84	-22.13
Hotspot Shield - USA	52.15	30.35	-21.8
TunnelBear - UK	52.15	41.64	-10.51

As expected, the VPNs with servers furthest away from me had the biggest drop in speed. However, every server had speeds fast enough to stream in UltraHD or 4K quality, even at the busiest connection times.

Question 7

⚙️ How does P2P file sharing work?

Accepted Answer

P2P (peer-to-peer) file sharing works by using a network of linked computers to store, upload, and download files. Rather than relying on a single server to store and distribute information, like a website, P2P stores files on every computer in the network. This creates a peer-to-peer computing network, as each computer becomes a server as well as a client. When you want to torrent a file, all the network computers work together to upload the data to you. As you download the information, it’s being uploaded at the same time (by you and other users in the network) for others to share. This makes torrenting a fast way to share files as the workload is distributed between all of the computers in the network. P2P file sharing can be risky if you can’t verify the torrent site as being reputable and safe. Some sites have torrents infected with malware that can compromise your data security. Make sure you only use trusted torrent software, reliable torrenting sites, and a quality VPN to safely share files with other users on the network.

Question 8

🔍 What’s the difference between BitTorrent and uTorrent?

Accepted Answer

BitTorrent and uTorrent are both torrent clients you can use to P2P file share. They’re both owned by BitTorrent Incorporated and are considered “sibling products.” With almost identical interfaces, you may think they’re basically the same, but there are a few differences you should know about before you choose which one to use.

uTorrent is the smaller of the 2 clients, taking up less than 1MB of space on your device. BitTorrent is considerably bigger, at almost 3MB.
uTorrent is compatible with more operating systems — Windows, Mac, Android, and Linux. BitTorrent has no Linux compatibility.
uTorrent is updated more frequently and is in a constant state of development. BitTorrent only releases stable updates, making it more reliable.

Question 9

Question 10

❓ Why Am I Seeing the “Our European Visitors Are Important to Us” Error Message?

Accepted Answer

Websites outside the EEA don’t have to conform to the same GDPR laws as websites within the EEA. The laws developed by the GDPR are designed to safeguard your personal data — preventing companies from misusing any information stored or collected from website visitors. If a website outside the EEA doesn’t conform to data protection principles, you will see the error message. This is because GDPR laws prevent access to any non-EEA website that doesn’t comply with its regulations. While it’s an annoying error message to encounter, these laws are there to protect you.

Question 11

🔍 Why do I need a VPN to bypass GDPR content blocks?

Accepted Answer

Sites that are blocked by GDPR use your device’s location information (your IP address) to stop you from accessing them. A VPN routes your connection through a server in a different location outside of the EEA, masking your true IP address and replacing it with a local one. When you visit a website with GDPR restrictions, it sees your device as being in a different location outside the EEA. The site then lifts the content blocks and you avoid the “European Visitors” error message.

Question 12

💰 Can I use a free VPN to avoid the error message?

Accepted Answer

You can — Hotspot Shield is one of several free VPNs available on the market that unblocks GDPR content. But not all free VPNs have the resources or security features to keep your data safe. In fact, many are incredibly limited in terms of data allowances, server connections, and data protection. If you’re able to connect to a server, you’ll likely experience slow streaming and loading speeds, hitting the data cap quickly. Your connection could be unreliable, which also puts your data security at risk if the connection drops, leaving you unprotected. As privacy is important to you, you should know that some free VPNs generate revenue by tracking your activity and selling the data to third parties, like advertisers. This compromises your personal information, including your location data. The only way to reliably connect to servers with strong security is by using a quality VPN, like . If you want to try a VPN for free before subscribing, you can use its money-back guarantee. I found getting my money back with ExpressVPN was easy — I had my refund within 3 business days.

Question 13

Can I use a free VPN to watch fuboTV?

Accepted Answer

You can use a free VPN to watch fuboTV, but if you want the best possible streaming experience, I wouldn’t recommend it. Free VPNs have limited encryption technology, unable to get around fuboTV’s content blocks or keep your personal data secure. Combined with small server numbers, you’ll struggle to get connected at all. If you do, you’ll find stream quality is bad because your connection is deliberately slowed down. Not only will your show be interrupted with a free VPN, but you could be compromising your data security too. Some free VPNs have been known to log user data (despite promising not to) and sell the information to third parties, like advertisers. The best way to stream fuboTV smoothly and securely is to use a quality VPN. Every VPN on my list has a money-back guarantee — you can risk-free. Just contact customer service and they’ll give you a full refund. I tested this for myself and got my money back within 5 business days.

Question 14

What devices work with fuboTV?

Accepted Answer

Question 15

What can I watch on fuboTV?

Accepted Answer

fuboTV started as a sports streaming service and that’s what it still does best — bringing you content from the NBA, Major League Baseball, NFL, the Olympics (including the Winter games), the FIFA World Cup, and more!

Question 16

What else can I do with a VPN?

Accepted Answer

A VPN gives you access to global sports streaming content. Not only can you stream fuboTV from anywhere, you can also watch regional games affected by broadcasting blackouts and catch up with worldwide events like the Fifa World Cup, Six Nations Rugby, or the Olympic games. Beyond helping you watch the game, a VPN will keep your internet connection secure and your browsing anonymous. When you use one of my recommended VPNs, you can be sure your online activity won’t be monitored or logged by your ISP, advertisers, or malicious third parties. and get you past location blocks and straight to the content you want.

Question 17

🔍 What else can you watch on Disney Plus?

Classic animated films such as The Little Mermaid, Snow White, and The Jungle Book
Every episode of The Simpsons
Documentaries like The World According to Jeff Goldblum and Dog Whisperer

Question 18

💰 Can I use a free VPN with Disney Plus?

Accepted Answer

I know a free VPN is tempting but I strongly advise against it when streaming Disney+. Even the best free VPNs have bandwidth restrictions and limited servers, which means you’ll struggle to watch Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United due to all the buffering — if you can even connect to a working server at all. However, my biggest concern is the risk to your online privacy, especially if you've got kids watching Disney+. Free VPNs often track and sell user information to make money. You could be exposing yourself and children to ads filled with malware and other inappropriate or dangerous material. Personally, my free hack is to download a premium VPN with a money-back guarantee, such as . It has a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can watch Disney+ for free for a month. This ensures that you can stream Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United at the highest quality and keep your internet connection secure, at no cost to you.

Question 19

❓ What else can I do with a VPN?

Accepted Answer

With a VPN, you can access location-restricted content from any country worldwide. You'll get to stream Disney+, as well as other TV shows and movies on Netflix, BBC iPlayer, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and more. A VPN will also protect your online data and privacy from third-party surveillance, including governments, hackers, and advertisers. This is important if you frequently bank or shop online, or if you conduct internet research on sensitive topics. A VPN will secure your internet connection on your home network or public WiFi.

Question 20

💰 Can I use a free VPN to watch Disney Plus?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but there’s a catch — your streaming quality will be lower. Most free VPNs have limited bandwidth and fewer servers. This means your streaming speeds will be slower and you’ll experience buffering and connection errors. When I tested free VPNs, I didn’t find one that could access Disney+ — I always got the dreaded error message. Even if you manage to find one that works, you’ll be inundated with ads, which doesn’t make for a good streaming experience. Free VPNs have less resources to protect you and some are known to log and sell your activity. For a connection that is reliable, secure, and free, you can get a quality VPN with a good money-back guarantee. . This means you have a full month to request a refund using the customer support live chat. I tested this for myself and got my money back within 5 business days.

ExpressVPN makes it easy to get a refund with its 30-day money-back guarantee

Question 21

🔓 Will I be banned for using a VPN with Disney Plus?

Accepted Answer

No, your Disney+ account won’t be banned if you try to connect with a VPN. Disney+ is blocking VPN servers that try to access its content library from outside of the service area. This is why only a few VPNs are able to access the content. It is not banning accounts that have tried to stream Disney+ with a VPN. I streamed Disney+ with a VPN and my account is still active.

Question 22

🔍 What else can I watch on Disney Plus?

Accepted Answer

Disney+ has a remarkable catalog of content for you to enjoy. From the highly anticipated original series The Mandalorian to old favorites like Toy Story and Cinderella, there’s something for everyone. You can also stream:

Both animated and live-action movies from Disney’s extensive history
All original content created just for Disney+, like Forky Asks A Question
Marvel, Pixar, and National Geographic movies and TV shows
And much more!

During my tests, I noticed that the content libraries in each country are slightly different. For example, the Disney classic Anastasia is currently only available in Australia, and only the US streams Dan in Real Life and Around the World in 80 Days. You’ll have access to the most TV shows and movies if you stream from the US. Disney+ in the US has an expanded bundle deal — you can enjoy Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ under one subscription. But if you’re not in the US, you’ll need a VPN to access content on all three streaming services.

Tip: To find the content you want on Disney+, use accurate search terms. “The Incredibles 2” has different results than “Incredibles 2,” which gives you the movie. “Spiderman” and “Spider-Man” give different results too.

Make sure you use the right search terms to find the Disney+ content you want

Question 23

❓ What else can I use a VPN for?

Accepted Answer

A reliable VPN is a useful tool for accessing restricted content and protecting your data security. Apart from streaming Disney+ from anywhere, you can use a VPN to:

Access geo-restricted streaming services, like Netflix, Hulu, HBO, and BBC iPlayer
Watch sporting events with broadcasting restrictions in your location
Torrent safely with secure peer-to-peer file sharing
Keep your data protected when accessing sensitive information like your bank account
Enjoy a secure connection when using public Wi-Fi
Prevent your ISP from slowing your connection on purpose
And more!

Question 24

Can I use a free VPN to watch NBC Sports Live?

Accepted Answer

You could use a free VPN to live stream NBC Sports, but I wouldn’t recommend it. Free VPNs are limited by bandwidth restrictions and download speeds. While a free VPN can be great for secure browsing, these restrictions will spoil your live streaming. Slow speeds mean lag, buffering, and interruptions — not ideal when you want to catch every moment of the action. With data caps, it’s likely you won’t be able to live stream the entire game before your data allowance runs out. The best way to live stream with NBC Sports is by using a quality VPN. You’ll have unlimited bandwidth and super-fast speeds to keep your stream running smoothly. Try a VPN with a money-back guarantee so you can see how smooth and buffer-free your NBC Sports streaming can be. and had my money refunded, no questions asked.
