First time VPN customer, Is Torguard the service of choice?

I switched to Cyber Ghost.

for the heck of it, you should see why this “reviewer” hold a bit more credit than the louder ones. He is very low budget, and his top choices are mostly/all the ones that compensate him the least https://www.vpntierlist.com/
Like you said, there are a ton of VPN’s out there, and none really stand out, but his rankings do seem impartial at the very least.

Refer to this video so set it up

Also I’d suggest not using uTorrent or anything like that, use qBittorrent, it’s open source and has no adware like uTorrent does (which can actually get you caught)

24

If you want to believe him and his views then by all means go ahead and do but I won’t. Id rather do my own testing than be blinded.

Honestly only seen two videos and that’s enough. He seems the same as any YouTube ‘reviewer’ always pushing his products and payment / affiliate ain’t got nothing to do with it, not saying it bad but read my comments for my reasons.

I use Deluge. I don’t have any of those settings.

26

Fair.

So what is the VPN of choice in your experience?

27

Yeah I’d switch for now then, better safe than sorry, also you can customize the UI theme for qBittorrent if you find it to be an eyesore, just search for skins

I was using Airvpn but now nothing as don’t need a VPN right now.

30

I used qBittorrent for a while, but had issues with it. Wouldn’t always start my torrents.

Had that happen too, though that was usually because of a weird glitch which gets resolved by just closing/reopening it or the torrent just has few seeders which makes it get stalled
