Does PureVPN offer dedicated IP?
I was going to ask if anyone has tried PureVPN and found a "dedicated IP" address assigned.
It seems to me that the server is very well connected to the internet, but is it actually possible to connect from anywhere without the use of a VPN? If it is then that would be an added bonus. I have no experience with their services, but if it's true, then I'm going to have to look into it! I also plan on using them. I use PIA's free plan and even though I can't stream HD at the moment, I love it, because it gives me the feeling of privacy.
PureVPN provides dedicated IP addresses so yes, you can connect without a VPN. Their servers are located in many countries, and also in all major cities of the US, Canada and Europe.

It's easy to figure out. PureVPN is one of the cheapest VPN providers out there. It's free, or at least it used to be free. I think that they got bought by Private Internet Access.
When you connect to a PureVPN server, your traffic is encrypted (and it's sent over the Internet) and sent over the PureVPN servers instead of your ISP's servers. Once you exit the PureVPN connection, your traffic is decrypted and sent to your ISP again.
Does PureVPN support port forwarding?
We all have our favorite VPN providers but what happens when your preferred VPN provider goes down?
How will you still be able to access Netflix while offline? What if your choice drops support for your preferred operating system, browser or device? A lot of VPNs drop support for old devices or operating systems. However, only a handful of the premium VPN providers have a dedicated desktop and mobile application with a built-in VPN client. This means that they can always keep your browsing experience working even on older devices and operating systems.
PureVPN has over 4 million users, this is their top selling product. I highly recommend PureVPN as they support Windows 7, 8, 10, Mac OSX, and Linux.
Does PureVPN support tunneling? A tunnel is an encrypted connection between two points. It is typically used to help circumvent government censorship or surveillance. The tunnel itself consists of two parts: a tunnel endpoint which hosts an encryption key and the second part is a tunnel provider which generates the encryption key and provides the tunnel between the two endpoints.
When you create a tunnel you choose the VPN endpoint where you want to send your internet traffic through (for example your computer). Your traffic then enters the encrypted tunnel. Your computer sends the encrypted traffic to the VPN endpoint and the VPN endpoint decrypts it before passing the decrypted data to the other endpoint.
PureVPN is probably the best and most used tunnel provider in the world. You can even use multiple tunnels at the same time.
Does PureVPN support OpenVPN and other types of protocols? There are several different types of protocols. OpenVPN is one of the most popular and common protocols for secure VPN tunneling. There are others such as L2TP/IPSec which uses the Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) which is also a common protocol for tunneling.
With PureVPN you get both OpenVPN and PPTP protocols. Can you tunnel your traffic over an OpenVPN connection or do I need a separate PPTP connection? You can use OpenVPN protocol and PPTP protocol on the same connection. Some people do so because it is more flexible. For example, you can connect to one location through one tunnel or you can use two tunnels.
Does PureVPN provide server based clientless connectivity? Clientless connectivity means you are connected without using the IP address of the connection.
