Testing out a VPN that works with Ubuntu/Kubuntu

Sometimes Paying is better!

I’ve been playing around with the Free PPTP services but thought it would be nice to check out a paid version. I never like the idea of getting something for free because you never really know who might be doing it for nefarious reasons. Now that doesn’t mean that these free services are bad but they are better than not using anything. That being said, I came across a possible site that may be something that I will recommend in the future. The Idea is a simple, being able to use a VPN that can be used with Kubuntu and Ubuntu. They support Linux by helping people keep secure in today’s ever changing world.

I won’t know more until I test it!

This isn’t going to be a long post, because they seem to want me verify that I am a blogger. So in order to test this service I have to provide them with a link and you can see:

I will also be having a how to for those of you who might want to connect to this service and actually have more security then PPTP. I like having more security while browsing and also hiding my IP from those people who are watching. All I can say is this is looking like a better service than anything that could be free. I’ll be reviewing their speeds and everything in the coming weeks but for the time being. I will being giving people an How To set up the service on your Kubuntu System.

  1. I use Astrill VPN on my ubuntu laptop. It’s really great, they have simple and powerful VPN client (OpenWeb and OpenVPN protocols). Astrill offers VPN servers in 44 countries around the world. Connection is really fast and reliable. Sometimes I’m connected for more than 1 day and it keeps connection reliable. I highly recommend Astrill VPN. Get a free 7 days trail and test it yourself.

  2. Alex,

    Thanks for the suggestions. Just got done emailing them to find out if that would be possible and I can’t wait to try this service out myself. They actually do have a great UI for Ubuntu/Kubuntu and this might be the simplest way to get a Paid vpn that I have seen yet! I will know more later on, I’d like the pricing of it though!

  3. A paid VPN’s terms of service almost always protects its users, has a staff or team dedicated to maintaining the stability and integrity of the service, and a sound business plan that allows the service to remain in operation essentially indefinitely. Get better security too with an extremely secure AES algorithm with 256 bit keys when you pay for the service.
