VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a popular feature that helps you quickly change your internet connection to optimize gaming, speed up web surfing,… Hastega is supporting VPN protocols:
- OpenVPN: is a very good and fast VPN protocol. In particular, it is supported with the Split Tunneling for Gaming feature to help you play the game better. To use OpenVPN, you need to install additional drivers to use (click on MAIN MENU in Hastega Application to install the driver if you don’t have it).
- Microsoft SSTP (Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol): is a very secure VPN protocol and extremely effective in penetrating any firewall. It is recommended to use MS-SSTP when you are having outbound connections blocked. This protocol is already built into the Windows OS, so you do not need to install additional driver.
- L2TP over IPSec (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol over Internet Protocol Security): is the VPN protocol with the fastest speed and highest compatibility. Like MS-SSTP you do not need to install additional driver.
- WireGuard WARP 1.1.1.1: is a smart and fast VPN protocol developed by Cloudflare. You can easily create a VPN connection in seconds and automatically select the closest nodes from among Cloudflare’s CDNs. WireGuard also supports Split Tunneling for Gaming like OpenVPN.
