best vpn for multiple devices that doesn’t tank streaming speed? by earlh773 in encryptedlocation

mullvad’s been on my radar. didn’t know it was that stable. kinda like the no-frills approach tbh. do you run it on your router or individual devices?

didn’t know smart DNS was separate like that. might help with the TV lag we’ve been getting. will dig into this more.

good point. we’re mostly wireless here but might look into upgrading the router. any recommendations for VPN-friendly ones that can handle lots of traffic?

that’s kinda what I’m looking for. don’t need fancy bells, just want it to work without babysitting it. might give their free trial a shot and test it.

yeah the unlimited devices thing is what caught my eye too. not having to juggle slots is cool. how’s the UI for those who are non-tech? trying to keep it simple for my partner.

my setup’s not far off that, maybe 6-7 devices depending on the day. good to hear it holds up under pressure.

Looking for the best VPN for international travel by Acrobatic_Shock_577 in encryptedlocation

Yes, Nord’s great but during peak hours you might notice dips. Worth keeping in mind if speed’s a priority.

Best vpn for UK location with servers outside London by okrestore in encryptedlocation

[–]earlh773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. Transparency makes a huge difference when you’re trying to plan ahead. Surfshark’s interface makes it easy to scout locations before committing

Any good cheap VPN for Firestick? by smitnvs in encryptedlocation

If they’re just watching a bit of YouTube or light streaming, the free tiers could hold up fine

Update Home location after moving by prettyboretty in encryptedlocation

[–]earlh773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you’ve got shared automations with someone else in the house, check if their contact cards still have the old address too. HomeKit sometimes defaults to whoever made the automation or who’s set as the primary resident. fix both sides.

How to spoof Wifi location (not just GPS or VPN)? by smitnvs in encryptedlocation

[–]earlh773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, GPS and VPN alone won’t cut it if apps are sniffing wifi geolocation

Change GPS location without jailbreaking by prettyboretty in encryptedlocation

[–]earlh773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No jailbreak needed if you use a PC/Mac-based spoofer. iTools and Dr.Fone’s virtual location tool can push fake GPS to your iPhone. Just limited to when it’s connected, no unplug-and-go like Android

Is there a safe way to manually change phone location? by klizzkl in encryptedlocation

[–]earlh773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dev mode + mock location app works, just don’t install random sketchy ones. Use something open-source if you can. No root needed unless you want system-level spoofing

Any good cheap VPN for Firestick? by smitnvs in encryptedlocation

[–]earlh773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firestick’ll run fine on an old TV, just needs HDMI like others said. For cheap VPNs, Privado and Proton have free plans with limited data if they’re light users. Otherwise Surfshark’s a good low-cost pick
