What is everyone's VPN of choice when using StreamFab

DaveRip

I tried to search for VPN, but it would not bring any results. I have been looking at VPNs based on unlimited data, high bandwidth, and allowing multiple simultaneous logins. But I am wondering what everyone's actual real world experience has been like with StreamFab and your choice of VPN.

ProtonVPN is what I switched to about a year ago. Been with them for a year now and I get incredible unlimited speeds and most of the servers have worked flawlessly with streaming services. Using the wireguard setting in proton has enabled me to use a full gig up and full gig down on most speedtests and how busy the particular server is that I'm connected to. It's truly a great VPN.

I use a dns proxy called dns4me

Thanks everyone. I had been reviewing NordVPN and ExpressVPN and then I used the link that Wilson sent and saw those were the two being compared out there as well. With Corey's recommendation, I went out and took a look at Proton VPN as well. I ended up getting NordVPN. It appears to be working for:

SUCCEEDED
=========
Tubi
Crackle*
HBO Max
Peacock
Amazon
Hulu
Roku
CW

FAILED
=======
PlutoTV*

I also noticed that PlutoTV was not one of the sites checked in the link Wilson sent. So I am not sure if there is a workaround for them yet. But the rest is running a little slower, but all working well.

Ok, so I have tried everything I can think of and Pluto still fails through VPN. Any advice or is it just a fail for VPN? Everything else runs slower, but it all runs.

when you connect through a VPN, are you choosing a US IP address ??

Pluto works for me through Proton.

Anyone know how to get any to work with Netflix Korea? I tried expressvpn and with a Korean server and couldn't even log in. I contacted their support too and they tried and couldn't see the movie I was trying to see (Sinkhole). Maybe they have some restriction on email accounts needing Korean Domain.

I actually fired up a test virtual machine in Korea and even that didn't work.

So you have personally been able to connect and watch Netflix Korea with Nord? I mean I keep hearing generalities, but I have yet to actually hear from someone who has successfully connected to Korea and watched something exclusive with their account, such a Sinkhole.
And considering I created a virtual machine on a Korean server farm and it couldn't log in, I don't know what else to try other than a Korean email domain and address and credit card and a new account ...
