FAQ

In this section of our website you can get recommendations and instructions for installing and configuring our VPN on your device.

Frequently asked questions

    • VPN is the common name of a technology that allows you to provide a secure network connection over another connection. In other words, your IP is hidden when you connect to the VPN, and all data that you transmit or receive from the Internet is protected by encrypting this connection.
    • The vast majority of users use the VPN in order to remain anonymous when entering their personal data, credit cardor login and password data on important sites. Due to the fact that all traffic that passes through the VPN is encrypted, even if the traffic is intercepted by intruders, it won’t be decrypted. Because decrypting traffic demands a long period of time no one bothers to do that.
      As with the anonymizer, many people need to buy a VPN to circumvent various geo-restrictions, restrictions on providers or the country to visit their favorite resources, including social networks.
      Since we support the most popular OpenVPN, IKEv2, PPTP protocols, you can configure the L2TP connection once on any device and use it until the period of paid subscription expires. At the same time, when using anonymizer, you have to connect every time you start your session.
    • In order to start using VPN you need:
      • Register with us on the site.
      • Buy VPN.
      • Then you need to decide whether to connect the VPN, downloading the configs, or using the application.
      • Follow the instructions, depending on the decision taken.
    • Do you have a test, and can I return money if I do not like your VPN? We do not have a test period, since we provide a quality product. The refund is provided, however, only within 7 days after activation of the subscription. Also there is one free server in the application, one server is enough to make up your mind about us.
    • In fact, there are no limitations or restrictions, as logging on our servers is disabled. However, in the rules of using our service there are a number of prohibitions that are written to protect you as a customer, and us as a service provider.
    • If you want to always remain anonymous on the network, not to be afraid that your traffic can be intercepted and your authorization data on sites to be decrypted, if you want to make purchases on the Internet safely, and to circumvent various geo-restrictions on sites - then you need to buy a VPN.

    • If you decide to buy a VPN from Netmap, then you have the opportunity to use 4 connection protocols: OpenVPN, IKEv2, PPTP and L2TP.
    • The settings of our system provide for the use of one device per protocol. Thus, you can connect one device to the OpenVPN protocol to one subscription, one - IKEv2, one - PPTP, and also one - L2TP. This is more than enough for comfortable use of VPN on all your devices.

    • L2TP / IPSec and OpenVPN are considered the most reliable encryption protocols. Both protocols are provided with 256-bit long encryption. However, OpenVPN doesn’t suit every device. Therefore, different protocols are suitable for different devices.
    • We have several protocols for mobile devices: PPTP and L2TP. Because the PPTP protocol does not support encryption, it is better to use the L2TP protocol. However, if the data transfer speed is important to you, the PPTP protocol certainly works faster then.
      Also, if you do not want or do not have the opportunity to configure VPN manually, we suggest you use our application. The application is implemented on the IKEv2 protocol, and data encryption is also supported. Therefore, your data will always be safe.
    • Of course, the most convenient is the OpenVPN protocol. Download the OpenVPN client and configs, install the client, copy the configs and everything is ready. However, if you do not want to install third-party software on your PC, then L2TP is the best choice. We recommend to use our application for maximum ease of usage, security and speedy VPN.
    • The most likely cause of the “AUTH FAILED” error when connecting OpenVPN is not a broken VPN session. Or you have exceeded the limit on the number of devices you can use per subscription.
