I did a test for speed of Surfshark in Shanghai, China. More or less, all VPNs will slow down your internet connection speed, this is true in most cases, as your internet traffic will travel through an additional server, the exception is when you are accessing internet in a country with internet censorship, in that case, VPN will increase your speed of connection to blocked websites, because without a VPN lots of data will be blocked by the firewall used for blocking, VPN can bypass the block and improve the speed of connection (only to sites that are affected by the firewall), though the actual overall internet connection speed is slowed down by VPN.Ī fast VPN will not significantly slow down your internet connection speed, the speed drop rates is usually less than 50 percent, but a slow VPN can greatly impact your connection speed, the speed can drop 80 to 90 percent. The speed and reliability of connection is one of the most important things to consider when choose a VPN service, a slow VPN will significantly slow down streaming speed and increase loading times when you browse the internet. By default, Surfshark will start itself when your operating system is started, so that it can protect your privacy at any time, even if you don’t remember to turn on it, but if you don’t need this feature you can disable it at the app’s Settings panel. You can also click “Settings” tab in the vertical bar to adjust other settings like Kill Switch (more detail in Security section of this article) and VPN protocol, though the app will automatically choose a best protocol for you. It’s very easy to select a server location, a list of server locations can be found by clicking on the “Locations” tab in the vertical bar on the left of the interface, there are 50 locations, so it will always have one or more locations that are not far from you. (If it’s the first time you use Surfshark VPN service on that device you need to log in within the app with your user details you provided when you subscribed the service)īy default the app will detect your physical location and select a server location that is nearest to you to connect, in most cases that server will bring you the fastest connection speed, but occasionally it can become slower if the server has lots of users connected to it, in this case you can select another server location. To use Surfshark VPN, all what you need to do is open the app and click or tap the blue “Connect” button shown in the lower area of the app, and your device will be connected to VPN in a few seconds.
