So what is a VPN and what does it do? VPN is mainly used to help you stay private online.

Every device connected to the internet is assigned a sequence of numbers, called the IP address. One of the main ways it does this is by masking your IP address.

Another benefit of a VPN is that it will encrypt your data.
This way, instead of going from one device to another device, it will get encrypted by going through the VPN first. This will limit the chances of the data falling into the wrong hands.

VPN also provides online privacy. VPN services will not track your activity online.

One of the downsides of a VPN is that they do slow down your activities online. With the free VPNs, you’ll notice a significant reduction in speed, and the paid options still have a reduction in speed, but it’s not as noticeable.

Now, let me show you two options for VPN providers that you can use and exactly how to set them up.

First, let me show you NordVPN. Nord VPN is the biggest and most reputable VPN provider. I will also show you Proton VPN. This one is free. One downside of free VPNs is the reduction in speed.

I’ll walk you through setting up NordVPN here, which is the one I’ve used for several years. And the process is very similar to other VPN providers.

You can also use a plugin called similar web if you want to compare how popular a VPN is and how many people are using it.

Once you install NordVPN, you can simply click connect or pick a country.

You can also set this up on your Phone or Tablet once you’ve protected your desktop. I’ll show you again with the NORD VPN app.

Simply search the App Store or Google Play store for NordVPN and install it.
