As with any VPN, it's nearly impossible to verify that claim. The core of that question relies on whether a VPN can be trusted not to log usage data. More people sharing IP addresses, they reason, dilutes the likelihood that any individual IP address' activity will be linked to any individual person. While a greater number of IP addresses can contribute to faster speeds, some aficionados argue it's safer to use fewer IP addresses. One clue as to why IPVanish may be inching past NordVPN in speed tests may lie in its amassed 40,000-plus IP addresses, a factor of contention among the privacy-minded. Encryption: AES-256, Perfect Forward Secrecy.Read more: NordVPN review: Still the best value for security and speed Security and Privacy And IPVanish is reaching those speeds with about a third of Nord's server count. But IPVanish regularly gives NordVPN a run for its money in the thrice-daily tests conducted by ProPrivacy, and was outpacing NordVPN in that race at the time of this writing. UK servers were strong overall, but came in third place for speed averages with 40Mbps after a couple of tests at peak traffic hours came back at less than 10 Mbps.Ĭompared to high-profile speed players like ExpressVPN, it's tempting to paint IPVanish's speeds as sluggish. New York speeds led the results with a 53Mbps average, followed by European servers in Paris and Berlin with 45Mbps averaged for both. Australian speeds were more even, but maintained the lowest average, about 28Mbps. We hit a peak speed of 76Mbps connecting to Singapore servers, where we found the highest number of results above 65Mbps among all the servers tested, but also the most uneven experience, with a country average of around 35Mbps. IPVanish performed similarly to other VPNs, achieving only about 20% of the average 222Mbps speed achieved on a 1Gbps-capable fiber connection during testing, while still maintaining a respectable speed average of around 41Mbps globally. That's one reason we're more interested in testing the amount of speed lost (which for most VPNs is typically half or more) across both high-speed and slower connection types, and in using tools like to even out the playing field. And with any speed test, results are going to rely on your local infrastructure, with hyperfast internet service yielding higher test speed results. Internet speeds in the US vary widely by state and provider. We ran our IPVanish speed tests over the course of three days, in two locations, using both wireless and Ethernet connections - one location offered slower broadband speeds, and the other offered higher speeds via fiber-optic internet. We recommend IPVanish as a flexible, configurable choice for users who are new to VPNs.
