As the title states, let's compare which VPN providers slow down your IPTV connection and which work at full speed.
Currently using PIA VPN and it regularly kills my speed from 100+ Mbps down to as low as 8 Mbps.
I'm finding their service extremely inconsistent.
What is everyone else using and what is your experience?
PIA is the fastest for me.
Another vote for Nordvpn. I've heard that vpn in general most of the time slow down your internet speed, but it hasn't been the case for me with Nord.
ExpressVPN, create trial account and test it.
I use PIA too, it give me 8.5m out 10m ,what did you changed of the default settings to work better with iptv
Surfshark gives me in avg 25 mbs.
Thankfully I have a router that lets me set it the vpn for specific devices. 25 Mbs for iptv is plenty fast!
ExpressVPN & NordVPN would be my choice.

How are you running your VPN? Off the desktop app I would get 80Mbps, so about 1/4 of my bandwidth speed, off my "cheap" $120 router with OpenVPN I would get maybe 20Mbps. I ended up building a PFSense box and now run my VPN off of that and average about 70-75% of my full 400Mbps. I couldn't believe it either but every IP Leak test I throw at it shows I'm behind a VPN with this $70 box ($90 counting the Gigabit LAN NIC).
I found a vpn with dedicated ip was most reliable which I run on an Asus router. Over the last few years I used dedicated vpns from Nordvpn and Purevpn both worked great. I have a 76Mbps connection and speed tests were virtually the same with or without vpn.
I also tried a dedicated ip from Trust-zone, speed test was around 50Mbps but my iptv buffed and so I cancelled the service.
i use Nord with my iptv007 sub, no issues so far

I’ve ran tests for myself and for me, nordvpn was faster than expressvpn. I prefer express due to features.
I use nordvpn.
Dont use one. All VPNs slow down your connection.
ExpressVPN.
