More Down Under! New VyprVPN Server Cluster in Melbourne, Australia!

Golden Frog is adding more options Down Under for VyprVPN users. The company just announced a new server cluster in Melbourne, Australia, the second of its clusters in the country. Earlier this year Golden Frog launched a server cluster in Sydney, and the company is scheduled to launch one soon in Perth.

The new server cluster in Melbourne is available for all VyprVPN protocols, including PPTP, L2TP/IPsec, and OpenVPN. VyprVPN users now have access to 40+ server cluster locations worldwide.

A remarkable 90% of Australia’s 22 million residents have internet access, of the highest rates in the world.

  • VyprVPN Desktop – For VyprVPN desktop users, the new cluster will automatically be available when you choose your server location.
  • VyprVPN Mobile – To enable Melbourne as an option for VyprVPN Mobile, just log out and log back into the app.

Golden Frog Adds New VyprVPN Server Cluster in the Philippines!

Giganews members with VyprVPN now have even more options in Asia! In a continued effort to provide people everywhere with a free and open internet, Golden Frog is happy to announce the launch of a new VyprVPN server cluster in Manila, Philippines! The new server cluster in the Philippines is available for all VyprVPN protocols, including PPTP, L2TP/IPsec, and OpenVPN. Members can easily access, select and switch between 39 server cluster locations in North America, Europe and Asia.

Internet freedom in the Philippines has been severely impacted by the controversial 2012 CyberCrime Prevention Act. Human rights activists and the Electronic Frontier Foundation have been protesting a section of the law which criminalizes anonymous online criticism. This section has led to restricted internet freedoms and the shutdown of multiple websites by their justice department.

  • VyprVPN Desktop – If you use VyprVPN Desktop, the new server cluster will automatically be available when you choose your server location.
  • VyprVPN Mobile – To enable the Philippines as an option using VyprVPN Mobile, simply log out of the app and log back in.
