For a long time now, ExpressVPN has been recommending only 4 servers for mainland China: Hong Kong – 4 / Japan – Yokohama / USA – Los Angeles – 5 / Singapore – Marina Bay. These servers provide a better service for most of the users who need to flip the wall safely in China. In addition with the site’s long-term testing of the IKEv2 protocol wall connection as a supplement.
Today I’m going to do a quick test of these 4+2 servers with a total of 6 servers using Windows 10 as the test device. Today I will do a quick test of these 4+2 servers with Windows 10 as the test device to give you an idea of how they are being used. By the way, the IKEv2 protocol is still available, so for those who don’t know, you can check out the previous ExpressVPN tests for reference.
