History Jurisdiction Reputation
Namecheap VPN is from the United States, which can be troubling. There is no reason to not trust this company, however, as there are no records in the past that could suggest data leaks. Our Rating: 6/10. When choosing a VPN it is important to know where it originates. That’s because VPNs are dealing with personal and private information and you want to make sure that no one compels the VPN to collect any data. So, here’s what Namecheap needs to know.
Jurisdiction Applicable laws
Trying to persuade you to subscribe to Namecheap VPN would attempt to be blunt about its data logging operation. The company clearly says never collect your personal information. However some data are collected to allow the company to analyze and improve its software. Overall this is nothing to worry about. This is done by many VPNs (including those who call themselves ‘ no-logs VPNs ‘) and this should not be a problem unless the personal data is collected along the way. The problem now is that Namecheap originates from the USA. This country is a member of the 5/9/14-Eyes Alliance, a group of countries which gather and share intelligence data of all kinds. That’s exactly why VPNs are usually based in exotic locations with no data retention laws like the British Virgin Islands Seychelles and the like. In other words, using a VPN in a country without a data collection record or asking data processors to log some type of information is always a better idea.
Previous Data Leaks
Typically VPNs allow you to link from multiple devices to secure servers at a time. This means you need to know which platforms are being supported and whether at home and on – the-go you will be able to protect yourself. Here’s how this part of Namecheap VPN ranks. MacOS Windows Desktop Platform Compatibility Platform. Mobile Web Browsers Platforms N / A DD-WRT Routers (v2 v3) Tomato routers. Other Devices You can find native apps for Windows and macOS when it comes to desktop platforms made by Namecheap VPN. Both have user-friendly interfaces, and are easy to use. Namecheap VPN is available for mobile platforms on both Android and iOS. In addition to these platforms, Namecheap VPN can also be used on routers such as DD-WRT and Tomato. This is a feature recently introduced that surely increases the overall value of this VPN. Finally let’s not forget to mention that you can use Namecheap VPN simultaneously on up to 5 devices. This is in line with what other VPNs are selling so there are no surprises there. Using this VPN on a single router will of course function as a single device no matter how many computers or smartphones you connect to your router.
Installation Initial Configuration
Fortunately it is quite simple to install VPN software from Namecheap. Use your credentials to download the app from their official website, install it and then sign in. Our Score: “10/10. You first need to get a subscription to Namecheap VPN before you get to use this VPN. To do this, you need to pick your chosen subscription model and finalize the payment. You will then obtain your user credentials by email, which you will need to use back on this VPN’s official website (if you want to access your account to verify your subscription information).Easy to download Unblocks Netflix Affordable The Bottom Line Pros Good for complete beginners.

This is known as the most basic feature of any VPN, as its primary role is to avoid data leakage. Unfortunately there is no IPv6 here (you will have to disable this protocol manually on your system), which means you can rely on IPv4 instead. You won’t find them in here when it comes to more advanced options. This ensures the anti-malware or ad-blocking split-tunneling can not be found in this VPN. Thankfully Namecheap VPN doesn’t enforce any limitations that mean you’ll get unrestricted bandwidth and data transfers from the server.
Database Count
“3/3.1997.jpg” You want access to any part of the globe. And you need a VPN with lots of servers scattered across the planet for this to happen. Here’s what the VPN has to offer. Server Count Data Server Number 1000 + Country Number of Locations 50 Local Cities Availability YES Open Switching Namecheap VPN has been increasing its applications across the board rapidly. Some inconsistencies still exist between different versions but the situation is much better than before. Our Rating: 7/10. First of all, you should be aware that Namecheap has recently been revamped, and now comes with fully featured desktop applications. Now you will see a redesigned UI and an application that might be your primary VPN. The home screen helps you to pick a server shift between the protocols available and more-all while using a beautifully designed UI. “3/3.1999.jpg” You can select a country manually, or you can search for something specific when choosing between different servers. Just click on any server and you will be instantly logged in. You will then be returned to the home screen where you will see the chosen VPN protocol and the length of your session on your virtual IP. Namecheap VPN will also let you know every time you attach or disconnect via a nicely designed notification at the bottom right corner of your computer. “3/3.2000.jpg” “3/3.2001.jpg” Now let’s look through the iOS app. When you open it and log in, you will see a beautifully designed UI in the background, with a prominent world map. You can easily connect and reconnect to any of those countries (servers) anytime. The application also provides you with a nice server list which allows you to see their country of origin and ping values. There is also a list of settings that allows you to choose whether to secure cellular and/or Wi-Fi networks. You can also create lists of trusted and blacklisted Wi-Fi networks, so you can use Namecheap VPN to automatically protect you in various situations. All in all the application is beautifully designed, and is also ideal for absolute beginners. “3/3.2002.jpg” Figure 1 iOS vpn namecheap. All we have said about the iOS app is also for the Android app from Namecheap. It opens with a prominent world map that lets you pick and connect to a server. The top-right corner also contains a hamburger button which gives you a list of countries. We were shocked to see however that the Android app comes with a row of barebones settings. You can choose between two types of OpenVPN protocols to automatically re-connect the switch and choose a VPN port number. Figure 2 An Android VPN namecheap. All in all the mobile apps of this VPN are fully functional although it looks like the Android app needs more improvement to suit what top-rated VPNs deliver. When it comes to Windows Namecheap VPN’s software is rapidly improving and you can now see a really nicely designed user interface.
Media Streaming Torrenting Support
Namecheap can help you unblock and watch Netflix, and lets you access and upload P2P files. Other streaming services continue to be blocked. Our Rating: 3/10. Many of us rely on VPNs these days when traveling abroad to access websites that are only available in our native countries. That’s why we’re checking every VPN with a number of popular streaming media websites so check out the table below. Media streaming aid Netflix US YES NO BBC iPlayer NO Amazon Prime Video NO3/3.2005.jpg The strong encryption and capable VPN protocols can be counted on. Although it has no DNS leaks, a very vague and somewhat problematic Privacy Policy is in place. Our rating: 6.5/10. Let’s not forget the primary purpose of applying for VPN. They need to protect your online identity and ensure there is no leakage of your private data. So let’s inspect Namecheap VPN for features relating to security and privacy.
Support Encryption Protocols You will be pleased to know that the highest level of encryption (AES-256) comes from Namecheap VPN. By encrypting your data you are making it basically unreadable to anyone else. With this said you need the highest level of encryption, which means you’re safe even if somebody gets to your data (as it’s going to be uncracked). So Namecheap VPN is delivering on the promise. Next we also have VPN protocols which determine how your data is transmitted and received via the secure VPN tunnel. OpenVPN and IKEv2 are available in 2 protocols. Now, it is important to understand that you are going to get a certain VPN protocol based on the OS that you are using. Which is OpenVPN on Android. MacOS and iOS on Windows-that’s IKEv2. You can not switch between different protocols unfortunately. However it is thought that both OpenVPN and IKEv2 are highly secure.
Logging Policy
Typically, VPNs depend on their User Terms and Privacy Policy to tell you what type of information is being collected and how. The Namecheap VPN does not collect data on your Web browsing according to these papers. However this VPN reserves its right to collect data for purposes of troubleshooting. The company’s ToS reads: “We do not log any user activity (i.e. websites visited emails from the DNS lookup etc.). We do however monitor and collect errors for security and troubleshooting purposes so that we can improve the app’s stability. “The question remains-how do you define these errors? How does a consumer know exactly what kinds of data are being collected? How exactly are these data being collected in what instances? As you can see this is somewhat vague text. And even if Namecheap VPN comes with the best of intentions it needs to be more transparent and demonstrate its commitment to its users.
DNS Leak Test
As is apparent from the above screenshot Namecheap VPN does not leak your data. We have carried out an extended DNS test and we are pleased to report that third parties will only see what Namecheap shows them-and that is your ISP and country virtual IP hostname.
Speed Quality
“3/3.2007.jpg” Through a round of speed tests, we will now check how well this VPN is doing. Just like every VPN review we will first test the speed of our ‘ naked ‘ Web connection and then connect to both nearby and remote servers. So let’s get going. “3/3.2008.jpg” Figure 3 Our stats. We need to create some basic data first. This is achieved by conducting a speed test without activating the VPN. We got 148.01 Mbps for downloads and 9.87 Mbps for uploads as you can see from screenshot. “3/3.2009.jpg” Speed Reduction Baseline Speed 148.01 Mbps 9.87 Mbps 0 per cent 42.91 Mbps 9.20 Mbps 71.0 per cent Remote Server 61.54 Mbps 58.4 per cent On average this VPN slowed down our network connection speed by an average of 64 percent. This is not the worst result we have seen so far, but it is lower than average.
Customer Support
While different communication channels are open, it may be somewhat difficult to get support. Our rating: 6.5/10. Namecheap is not a newly established company so you can expect a comprehensive support system for your customers. There are several ways to communicate with the organization and have the answers to your questions. Live Chat: Namecheap only offered live-chat to registered customers a while back. Luckily that’s not the case any more. Even before you purchase this VPN, you can speak with representatives of the company who will answer your questions. However with this method of communication we must communicate our dissatisfaction. We approached the company to ask about the VPN protocols supported, and if P2P is enabled. It took 45 minutes to come up with a response, and two support officers. It can be frustrating even if this is the fastest way to get help. Support Tickets: By explaining your problem and providing your name and email address, you can open a support ticket too. We’ve found that Namecheap uses CAPTCHA from Google which seems to gather some data that certainly seems strange. Support Center: There is finally a dedicated support center where you can find frequently asked questions status updates about the company’s blog page and other forms of self-help content. You can also count on setup guides for all Namecheap VPN applications, and handy setup guides are available for VPN routers as well.
Pricing
“3/3.2012.jpg” Among the most affordable VPNs is Namecheap VPN. Basically we must admit it brings good value for its overall price. Our Rating: 8/10.0 per cent 1 Year $34.56 $2.88 51 per cent $67.68 $1.88 68 per cent Let’s check out the monthly plan for Namecheap first. It’s priced at $5.88 which is currently among the most affordable offers. In general, top-rated VPNs are priced at $10.00 to $15.00 per month so it’s obvious that Namecheap VPN knows its value. You also pay for the first month only $2.99 and you’ll be charged $5.88 each month that follows. If you are looking for a way to subscribe to Namecheap VPNsave on Namecheap VPN 68 per cent.
Do we recommend VPN with Namecheap?
“3/3.2013.jpg” Although this VPN comes with strong security features, data logging is a matter of concern. We can currently only recommend it to those who want to unblock Netflix at an affordable rate and who are not overly concerned with their digital privacy. CONS: US based Privacy Policy Vague Semi-helpful customer support. OUR SCORE: 6.1 From 10! If you think this VPN meets your needs go ahead right now and subscribe to Namecheap VPNbest VPNs.
