Playing online behind VPNPass

Route a match through VPNPass and opponents run into our server's address instead of your house. That does not make every game faster. The trick is keeping the detour as short as possible, which is what the steps below are for.

Home IP out of sight

Peer-to-peer lobbies and some voice tools expose your IP to anyone determined enough to look. Behind VPNPass, what they dig up points at a data center, not your street.

On a shared dorm network or a PC room line, the stretch from your machine to our server is encrypted, so the person at the next seat cannot read your game traffic.

Choosing a city for ping

Every tunnel adds a leg to the trip. Pick a city close to home or close to the game's own servers to keep that leg short.

Our route may be steadier than your provider's on some evenings and a few milliseconds behind on others. Test two or three nearby cities and go by the ping the game reports, not by guesswork.

  • Protocol: WireGuard
  • City: your own country or a neighboring one
  • Watch in-game ping, and change cities when it climbs

Consoles through the router

Consoles almost never run VPN apps. Once our router WireGuard file is ready, put it on the router and the console rides through VPNPass on its own.

Your pass counts the router as one device, even with a console, a PC and two phones behind it.

Game rules first

Some publishers ban VPN use or region switching outright. Check before you sign in from a foreign server, because the penalty lands on your game account.

Bans like that are the publisher's call, and we cannot lift them.

Large patches outside the VPN

Want only voice chat or the browser covered? Add the game launcher to the leave-out list in split tunneling, and multi-gigabyte updates download over your own line.

That option is on Basic, Plus and Pro alike.

Common questions

Does a VPN cut lag in games?

No promise there. A tunnel normally adds some distance, and choosing a city near you or near the game servers keeps the gap small.

What about my PlayStation or Xbox?

Use the router. If it can run WireGuard, load our router file there once it is ready, and the console is protected like every other device on that Wi-Fi.

Do big game downloads count against anything?

No. VPN passes have no data or speed cap.
