There are various reasons to use a VPN for Bangladesh and they generally depend on what you normally use the internet for. There are other technologies that you can use to change IP address but the virtual private network service is considered to offer more benefits.

The Benefits of Using the VPN Service

There is a variety of benefits that you can obtain from using the virtual private network in Bangladesh.

• Avoid Censorship: The amount of censorship varies in this country from time to time. In the past, Google, Google search results, Facebook and other such sites have been blocked. The anonymous IP address from the VPN helps you to avoid this censorship especially when you have a US or a UK IP address. You can use the restricted sites for personal or business purposes.

• Obtain Added Security: The VPN encrypts your information to varying degrees depending on the protocol that you use. In any case, your location is hidden, you receive a new location, plus other types of data are unreadable. This prevents people from seeing you online not to mention it reduces the risk of your device being hacked.

• Prevent Locked Accounts: If you are traveling and you have a moving IP address, the security alerts on your bank accounts or other types of accounts can lock your accounts stopping you from accessing them. Having a static private IP address from the VPN not only provides more security but it also prevents the security alerts from locking your accounts.

VPN Protocols Available

One of the most confusing parts of choosing a VPN is the VPN protocol. Most people are hearing this term for the first time, and on top of VPN plans, discount prices, subscription lengths and server locations, it just adds to the confusion. Most VPNs are divided into two parts, the encryption part, and the VPN tunneling protocol. How it actually works isn't so important, but the results it has may change your VPN experience.

Using a VPN for Bangladesh is a wise idea but you still need to choose the right protocol for your intended internet use. The PPTP protocol is a bit outdated but it is easy to set up, it can be used on most systems and it is efficient with its bandwidth use. With the most recent updates, it is also more secure than in the past. The L2TP protocol is more secure and can be used on most systems but uses more bandwidth.

OpenVPN is a kind of secure VPN software available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. It's highly recommended although it may slow down your internet speed from increased encryption. Though some OpenVPN users say it's an obvious difference, I don't see much difference; then again, I don't do a lot of activity online that's bandwidth intense like gaming or torrent downloading. This particular software offers a lot of value for money.

SSTP is also a top notch technology as it is more advanced and it is more difficult to detect but it is only available for Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
