WHAT IS A VPN? A Virtual Private Network (VPN) protects the data you upload and download from the internet, provides security for any data you send from your device, and anonymizes your internet activity.

HOW DOES VPN WORKS? Our VPN service protects you from data theft by using a virtual encryption shield ‘tunnel’ to secure your public/open WiFi connections. Once secured, your communications are impossible to spy on.

The AVG Secure VPN has worked great, but what I don't like is that it conflicts with the VPN that originally came bundled with the AVG Antivirus. I turned off that version (and kept on Secure VPN), but I am constantly getting alerts stating that "VPN is disconnected" even though Secure VPN is connected. Confused by what I just said? Well, welcome to my world of confusion. 😂 Other than that little hiccup, I think AVG is doing a good job!

Apps often don't download while VPN is active, it disconnects frequently, streaming often doesn't work or uses mobile data intermittently even when in WiFi. Not impressed with performance. 2024 update: it worked well for a while, but recently apps have stopped working while VPN is on. I've tried Gotham City and other locations with the same result. Not sure what has changed recently, but I will be cancelling my subscription and not coming back to this VPN in the future.

I like the VPN part. It works really well, EXCEPT for when I want to open something from my cell carrier and it won't open the browser at all. Very frustrating. Other times, I have to turn out completely off in order to access trusted websites that it just doesn't like. Very frustrating.
