split-tunneling

Welcome to the latest update for VPN Unlimited, version 9.2.0, now available for Windows users. This new release brings several exciting features to help you manage your internet experience more effectively. Whether you're working from home, browsing through different websites, or streaming media, VPN Unlimited aims to support your online activities securely and efficiently.

In this update, we're introducing a feature called Split Tunnel mode, designed especially for Windows 10 and 11. This option allows you to choose which apps use the VPN and which can connect to the internet directly, without VPN protection. It’s great for when you need fast access to local web services without compromising the security for other global activities.

Read on to learn more about how Split Tunnel mode works and other updates we've added to make your VPN experience better. Whether you're a long-time user or considering your first VPN, these new features are designed to meet your needs and ensure your online safety.

Overview of Split Tunneling

Split tunneling is a handy feature in VPNs that lets you choose how to use your internet connection. Think of it as directing some of your traffic through a safe, private tunnel (your VPN), while letting other traffic go directly to the internet through your regular connection. This can be very useful depending on what you're doing online.

Here’s why split tunneling is useful:

  1. Balance Speed and Security: Some apps don't need the extra security of a VPN, like streaming your local news. Split tunneling allows these apps to connect directly to the internet, which can speed things up. For everything else that might need more security, like sending emails or online banking, you can still use the VPN.
  2. Save Bandwidth: VPNs can use more of your internet bandwidth, which might slow down your connection. With split tunneling, you can reduce this by only using VPN protection for tasks that need it.
  3. More Control: You get to decide which apps use the VPN and which don’t. This is great for when you want to access services from your local area that might be restricted if you're connected to a server in another country.

In essence, split tunneling makes your VPN more flexible. It lets you keep your sensitive activities secure while enjoying faster speeds for everyday tasks.

Detailed Look at Split Tunnel Mode in VPN Unlimited

The new Split Tunnel mode in VPN Unlimited is specifically designed for users on Windows 10 and 11. It gives you the flexibility to choose which apps should use the VPN for their internet connection and which should not. Here’s how you can set it up and start using it:

  1. Accessing Split Tunnel Mode: First, make sure you have the latest version of VPN Unlimited installed on your computer. Open the application, and you'll find the settings option. In the settings menu, look for the 'Split Tunneling' section.
  2. Setting Up Your Preferences: In the Split Tunneling section, you’ll see a list of all the applications installed on your computer. Here, you can easily choose which apps you want to route through the VPN. Simply check the box next to the apps that you want to secure with VPN protection.
  3. Customize as Needed: You can change these settings anytime. If you download a new app that you want to secure, just go back to the Split Tunnel settings and add it to the list. Similarly, if you decide an app no longer needs VPN protection, you can uncheck it.

This feature is all about giving you control over your internet experience, ensuring that you can stay secure where it matters while keeping other activities fast and smooth. Whether you’re working, streaming, or browsing, you can tailor your VPN usage to fit your needs perfectly.

How Split Tunneling Improves Your Online Experience

One of the biggest advantages of using split tunneling in VPN Unlimited is how it balances your online security with speed. Here’s exactly how it benefits your daily internet use:

  1. Work and Play Separated: You can keep your work-related tasks secured through the VPN while streaming or gaming directly via your regular internet connection. This means no more compromising on speed or security depending on what you are doing.
  2. Local and Global Access: If you need to access local websites or services that require a local IP address, you can set these apps or browsers to bypass the VPN. Meanwhile, you can keep your global browsing secure through the VPN, giving you the best of both worlds.

Tailoring VPN Use to Your Needs

With split tunneling, you’re in control. You decide what gets the extra layer of security and what doesn’t. It's particularly useful if you have limited bandwidth or a data cap because you can minimize VPN usage to only essential activities. This selective use can help improve your connection speeds while maintaining the necessary security for sensitive tasks.

Conclusion

Split tunneling in VPN Unlimited is a feature that puts you in charge of your internet connectivity, balancing security and efficiency. By choosing which applications and services use the VPN and which connect directly to the internet, you optimize your online activities without sacrificing security or speed. Whether you are a tech newbie or a seasoned internet user, this feature enhances your VPN experience, making it fit seamlessly into your everyday life.
