Try “connection”, “billing”, “speed”.

VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a technology that creates an encrypted connection between your device and our server. All your data passes through this secure "tunnel", which ensures:

  • Privacy - your ISP does not see what sites you visit
  • Security - data is protected from interception
  • Anonymity - your real IP address is hidden
  • Bypassing locks - accessing blocked resources

NvoVPN uses modern AmneziaVPN and IKEv2 protocols for maximum speed and security.

Both protocols have their advantages:

AmneziaVPN:

  • Speed:Maximum fast, minimal speed loss
  • Security: Modern cryptography, only 4000 lines of code
  • Stability: Works great when switching networks
  • Recommended for:Streaming, gaming, downloading

IKEv2:

  • Reliability:Time-tested protocol
  • Mobility:Restores connection better on mobile
  • Compatibility:Supported by all modern operating systems
  • Recommended for:Mobile devices, travel

At NvoVPN, we recommend AmneziaVPN for desktop devices and IKEv2 for mobile devices.

A decrease in speed can occur for several reasons:

  1. Distance to server: The further away the server, the greater the latency. Select the nearest servers.
  2. Server load:During peak hours, servers may be overloaded.
  3. Your Internet connection:A VPN cannot increase your base speed.
  4. Encryption protocol:Some protocols are faster than others.
  5. ISP restrictions: Some ISPs limit VPN traffic.

Tips for maximum speed:

  • Use the AmneziaVPN protocol
  • Connect to the nearest server
  • Avoid peak hours (19:00-23:00)
  • Disable functions like "Kill Switch" if not needed

Setting up a VPN on your router protects all devices on the network at the same time:

Supported routers:

  • ASUS (Merlin/Stock firmware)
  • TP-Link with OpenWRT
  • MikroTik
  • DD-WRT compatible
  • GL.iNet

Basic steps:

  1. Download the AmneziaVPN configuration from your personal account
  2. Log into your router's control panel (usually 192.168.1.1)
  3. Find the VPN/AmneziaVPN section
  4. Import the configuration file
  5. Activate the connection
  6. Reboot your router

Advantages of router VPN:

  • Protection of all devices (IoT, smart home)
  • No need to configure each device separately
  • Works even with devices without VPN support
  • Permanent connection

Kill Switch is a security feature that blocks all Internet traffic when the VPN connection is lost.

How it works:

  1. VPN connection is active - traffic is flowing normally
  2. VPN connection is interrupted
  3. Kill Switch instantly blocks the Internet
  4. Your data is not exposed to the open network
  5. The Internet is resumed only after the VPN is restored

When it's critical:

  • Torrents: Protects against real IP leakage
  • Banking:Prevents the interception of financial data
  • Working with confidential information
  • In censored countries:Hide the fact of using a VPN

NvoVPN Kill Switch is enabled by default for your security.

Some sites block VPN connections for the following reasons:

Main reasons for blocking:

  • Geo-restrictions: Sites determine the country by IP and block VPN servers
  • Anti-bot systems:Cloudflare and other systems see the same IP
  • Banking systems:Banks block suspicious IP addresses
  • Streaming services:Netflix, Hulu struggle with bypassing geo-blocking

Solutions from NvoVPN:

  • Dedicated IP: Individual IP addresses (additional service)
  • Bypass servers: Special servers for streaming
  • Obfuscated servers: Mask VPN traffic as regular HTTPS
  • Protocol change:Switching from AmneziaVPN to IKEv2

If the site is not working, try:

  1. Change server
  2. Use a different protocol
  3. Clear browser cache and cookies
  4. Temporarily disable browser extensions

Split Tunneling allows you to split traffic: some goes through the VPN, some goes directly.

Usage examples:

By application:

  • Torrent client → via VPN
  • Browser → directly
  • Banking application → directly
  • Games → via VPN (for DDoS protection)

By sites:

  • netflix.com → via VPN (to access other regions)
  • bank.ru → directly (so as not to block)
  • youtube.com → via VPN (for privacy)

Advantages:

  • Speed:Local traffic does not slow down
  • Access:Banking sites work fine
  • Flexibility:Full control over routing
  • Performance: VPN connection offload

Split Tunneling is available in NvoVPN apps for Windows, Android and routers.

At NvoVPN we use dynamic IP addresses with infrequent rotation:

Parameter Dynamic IP Static IP (additional service)
Changing IP Once every few days/weeks Never, fixed
Security Higher, harder to track Lower, but can be changed manually
For streaming Reconnection may be required Stable access
Price Included in the tariff Additional 200₽/month

When you need a static IP:

  • Access to corporate resources with an IP whitelist
  • Server hosting via VPN
  • Frequent problems with blocking streaming services
  • Using APIs with IP restrictions

95% of users use dynamic IPs without problems.

NvoVPN provides protection against DDoS attacks through several mechanisms:

Multi-level protection:

1. Hiding real IP

Attackers only see our server’s IP, not your real address.

2. Distributed infrastructure

Our servers have excess bandwidth and traffic filtering systems.

3. Automatic migration

When an attack is detected, we automatically redirect you to another server.

4. Anycast network

Traffic is distributed across multiple servers, making the attack more difficult.

For gamers and streamers:

  • Games: IP protection in games like Dota 2, CS:GO
  • Streaming: Protection from “bandit attacks” on Twitch/YouTube
  • Competitions: Stable connection during tournaments
  • Servers:Game server protection

Turn on VPN before playing or streaming for automatic protection.

Double debiting usually occurs for several reasons:

Main reasons:

4. Different currencies

  • Reason: One amount is in rubles, the other is in dollars/euros
  • Solution:Check conversion rates

What to do:

  1. Don’t panic - 99% of double charges are a hold
  2. Check the status of payments in your personal account
  3. Wait 3 banking days
  4. If the hold has not disappeared, contact your bank

  • Session hijacking:Stealing cookies and sessions
  • Data in clear form:Passwords, messages, photos

How VPN protects:

  1. Encryption:All data is encrypted before leaving the device
  2. Protection against sniffing:Even if intercepted, they will not decrypt
  3. Secure DNS:Requests go through our secure servers
  4. Hiding activity:The WiFi provider can't see what you're doing
  5. Attack Protection:Makes it harder for attacks to attack you

Setting up for public WiFi:

  1. Enable "Auto-connect to unsecured networks"
  2. Activate Kill Switch
  3. Use AmneziaVPN for maximum speed
  4. Check for DNS leaks
  5. Turn off file sharing

What else needs to be done on public WiFi:

  • Use HTTPS everywhere (browser extension)
  • Don't log into banking apps without a VPN
  • Disable auto-connection to WiFi
  • Do not transmit confidential data
  • Use mobile internet if possible

Places where VPN is required:

  • Airports and train stations
  • Cafes and restaurants
  • Hotels and hostels
  • Shopping centers
  • Libraries and universities
  • Conferences and events

Enable VPN BEFORE connecting to a public network.

Yes. There are two ways to try the service:

1. Free trial — 1 hour

  • Duration: 1 hour from activation, with no speed or server limits.
  • How to get it: sign up and confirm your email — access turns on automatically, no card needed.
  • Conditions: once per account and per network. Not available via VPN, proxy or data-center addresses.
  • Auto-renewal: none. When it ends, access simply stops — nothing is charged.

An hour is enough to install the app, connect and check speed and the sites you need on your network. Tip: activate the trial when you have 10–15 free minutes, so you can test everything calmly.

2. 5-day trial plan

If an hour isn't enough, there's full access for 5 days at a symbolic price. It's the most common first choice among our users: test the service on all your devices without rushing.

Bonus days

Invite a friend through the referral program and you both get extra days of access. Details are in the "Referrals" section of your dashboard.

If you couldn't get connected during the trial — contact support, we'll help and extend your access if needed.
