At theCubeNet we provide Unlimited, Secure and Reliable Usenet and VPN Service

VPN stands for 'Virtual Private Network', and it creates a secure, encrypted connection between your computer and one of our servers so you may obtain an anonymous IP address located anywhere our servers are located. Encryption improves your online security and keeps others from snooping or inspecting your internet traffic.

When using our VPN service, we do not log what your IP address is, what websites you visit, what protocols you use, or what data you send and receive through our service.

You can use our VPN with Windows 7/Vista/XP, Mac, Linux, iOS, and Android. If you have questions about compatibility, just ask us.

You will have access to gateway servers in over 76 cities in 44 different countries with unlimited switches among them. See the interactive map below for more details on gateway city locations.

For your convenience, all VPN questions can be directed through theCubeNet support desk. We have a dedicated OctaneVPN staff member ready to answer any questions you may have.

Absolutely, our services can be used to access streaming services. We do not restrict what protocols you use.

You'll be able to protect both your computer and your smart phone/tablet with just one VPN account. We allow at least 5 simultaneous concurrent connections.

Yes you can! In fact, we have two locations optimized for Usenet interconnects with locations in the same datacenter to minimize speed losses. (Washington, DC and Amsterdam)

Our SSL usenet servers are secure and you really don't need to make your Usenet connection through a VPN, but it does provide a layer of anonymity. There are many advantages to using a VPN service to secure your web browsing activities (listed under how does it work).

You could but there are many disadvantages to setting up your own VPN server. The cost of setting up, securing and maintaining a VPN server is very time consuming and costly. You are limited to one physical location and a static IP address, which still allows companies to track you and if someone asks the hosting provider may disclose your information. If you are looking to secure your connection when using free wifi or unfamiliar internet service or you are trying to access country-blocked content it’s better to utilize a company that specializes in providing VPN access than setting up your own service.

Whenever you connect to OctaneVPN, a connection will be created between your computer and our gateway servers. We encrypt any data transmissions or online activity and offer DNS leak protection so that your presence is anonymous. Your connection will be secured by OctaneVPN so that anybody who wants to intercept or steal your data or information is unable to do so. We shield your Internet activity, usernames, passwords, emails, instant messages, downloads, uploads, etc. so nobody can see them or determine where your traffic is going.

What's more, OctaneVPN hides your true IP address by assigning you an anonymous one. An IP address acts as a digital signature and allows websites and third parties to determine where you are located. Our anonymous IP address helps hide your true location by substituting the gateway city's instead.

People use VPN service in many ways and do so for a variety of reasons. A company may use a VPN to secure communications within their offices and with employees working outside the office. People who are on certain networks may be prevented from accessing the full internet by firewalls or web filters. A VPN allows an encrypted tunnel through a filter or firewall to allow full internet access. Travelers often use VPN's to secure public Wi-Fi hotspots or hotel Wi-Fi so they do not have to worry about someone eavesdropping on their connection. Many people are starting to use VPN's to secure their mobile devices as they are often connected on Wi-Fi. There are many use cases for both residential and commerical customers.

Our mission is to provide our customers with the best service possible at the lowest price point possible. We could have created our own VPN service but we do not have the economies of scale that OctaneVPN does. We have collaborated with OctaneVPN because their diverse network has gateway servers in over 76 cities in 38 different countries while offering great speeds and minimal logging policies not unlinke our Usenet service. You will not be disappointed in VPN performance or service!

Generally, there will be minimal impact on your effective throughput speed if you choose a gateway location relatively close to you. Our network has a lot of capacity and good interconnects. However, common sense does apply. If you are located in Chinaand want to connect through a US gateway and load a website in Australia, you should expect there will be some speed loss as the network distance your data must travel will be much longer than normal.
