German Torrent & P2P Server In Beta. Your Help Is Needed!

As you probably know already, we, the team at HideIpVPN, are constantly working to improve our service and to enhance our users’ anonymous browsing experience.

During December, we have added a Canadian server and also we have started to provide proxy connections to our servers. The feedback from you, our users, was great and we are happy we are able to provide better service every day.

These days we are testing new server located in Germany (Erfurt). It’s still in beta but when it will be fully functional it will allow torrent & p2p traffic. Great, isn’t it?

We need your help!

We need your help to test the new servers. If you are subscribed for any vpn online free package you can be part of the testing process. If you are interested, please follow the steps:

- Setup a connection to the our Germany server.

- PPTP Connection: follow the tutorials for PPTP setup and use de.hideipvpn.com as host.

- OpenVPN connection: download the following config file and place it in the same folder as it is described in the OpenVPN setup tutorial.

- Proxy: use hideipvpn as proxy address and 3129 as the port. Then setup up your browser: Internet Explorer, Opera, Firefox, Chrome or Safari.

- Perform a Speedtest test.

Post a comment to this post to tell us the results, something similar to: I have tested using PPTP connection, my location is Poland and the speed is 10Mbs.
