Today, April 12, 2021, ExpressVPN will be tested in IOS/iPhone for APP direct VPN connection in mainland China. Based on previous tests and today’s normal use of the connection in Macbook and Windows 10, it was determined that ExpressVPN currently still works very smoothly in both devices at this time.

PureVPN Windows10 IKEv2 Test in China
April 7, 2021 – Today will be a test of the IKEv2 protocol in PureVPN’s App in Windows 10. Before testing I checked the latest version of PureVPN and confirmed that 1.1.74.0 is currently the latest version in Win10. When checking its version, I found that the initial loading speed of PureVPN is quite long when opening, about 90 seconds, which is not a good experience for users. But then again, for mainland China users, being able to connect to the server successfully and securely is the most important thing.

Since this morning has been busy with their own work, so only now began to test, between the time is relatively tight on each protocol option for 5-8 servers. If you have any questions, please leave a message to communicate.

Yesterday I took the time to connect in Windows 10 and successfully connected to “UK – #4308”, and today I turned on my computer over the weekend [VPN micro test] and successfully connected to “UK – #4316”. I saw such a situation, I still can’t resist testing, perhaps NordVPN’s Chinese version has shown signs of resurrection. Perhaps some readers reading my test report will be puzzled, a good connection, and then can not be connected. But I tell you this is the actual situation of users in mainland China, always hovering between stability and instability, sometimes need to use some specific techniques to connect. And that’s why I need to keep testing.
