Port Forwarding and getting set up

3) PureVPN is extensive in features. You will need:
** NAT-Firewall Add-On, and configure it in the web interface.

Thanks for re-stressing the usual info.

All the people I know who use PureVPN (including me), don't specifically need the NAT-Firewall Add-On. Most people find they need the dedicated IP address add-on only.

I don’t have the NAT add-on and it works fine. The only time I have needed to contact their support is to get it through the great firewall of China.

A suggestion would be to introduce a + vote feature in this forum's feature-set would save time and make it easier to find / focus the correct info.

Sorry, that wasn't meant as a sarcastic remark. It's always good to keep stressing what's important.

I don't think that type of functionality is available, but I don't know everything that's possible in the forum software.

Hey nicolaskf! So glad you were able to get PureVPN working. Works great for me too. Don't know if you saw, but I was able to get AlgoVPN working as well. Lots of options now which is outstanding!

I am using simple remote port forwarding over SSH tunnel that I open to the cloud server. No need to have VPN servers, clients, just a putty and good keep alive

Great to hear! the more options the merrier!

Thats actually pretty smart For me VPN is also about security and some basis of anonymity, so just a port forward isn't enough though...

Why I landed on PureVPN is because I can chose to either connect to a static server with NAT configured, OR I connect to a fully secured server with no ports open, OR I connect to servers that allow streaming (e.g. Netflix US). Which was another use case I didn't get working in AlgoVPN.
