Why use a VPN for Oculus Quest?
While security and privacy are always the main reasons for using a VPN (Virtual Private Network), there are other benefits to be gained from a VPN whenever you’re using Meta Quest 2.
DDoS protection
Sore losers or bad actors online can launch DDoS (Distributed Denial-of-Service) attacks to mess with your gaming experience. Such attacks target you by your IP (Internet Protocol) address, and since a VPN hides your real IP, you’re safe from DDoS attacks as long as you maintain a VPN connection.
No ISP throttling
Whether you’re playing video games, watching videos, or engaging in other online VR experiences, you’re probably using a lot of data with your Meta Quest 2. And your ISP (Internet Service Provider) may not like it. Thankfully, a VPN hides your activity, so the ISP can’t see what you do online and can’t throttle your connection as a result.
Industry-leading encryption
Your VPN connection is only as secure as its encryption. Surfshark uses AES-256-GCM encryption, which is recognized by many VPN industry leaders as the best option on the market today.
No activity tracking
Surfshark does not keep any logs of your activity while connected to the VPN. So, not only do we protect your data and hide your IP from anyone trying to snoop on your activity, but we don’t keep any of that data ourselves. Your online activity stays solely your private matter.
RAM-only servers
If you want to make sure your data stays safe, a VPN with RAM-only servers is the way to go. Since the server doesn’t have a hard drive, it stores very little data, and any data that’s actually on there gets wiped out every time the server shuts down. As a result, there’s no way to steal data from the servers physically.
Fastest VPN protocols
VPN protocols play a large role in the security and speed of your connection. And it’s no secret that a fast connection is crucial for gaming. Surfshark offers WireGuard, the fastest VPN protocol out there, to ensure that you always maintain an optimal connection speed with the protection of a VPN.

Additional Surfshark features VPN for Meta Quest 2
Unlimited simultaneous connections
A VPN is great for secure gaming, but there’s no reason to keep other devices unprotected. Surfshark offers unlimited simultaneous connections, which means you can keep your phones, computers, gaming consoles, and all other devices that connect to the internet protected at the same time.
Kill Switch
Kill Switch is a feature that shuts down your internet connection if your VPN connection drops. This ensures that your sensitive information is never vulnerable, even if there’s an issue with the VPN. And if you value your gaming experience more than your privacy, you can toggle this feature on or off in the Surfshark app settings whenever you start playing.
A vast server infrastructure
A VPN with a wide selection of servers is a must for gamers. That’s because your connection speed depends largely on the distance between you and the VPN server. Surfshark has 3200+ servers in 100 countries, which means you’ll always be able to find an uncrowded server nearby.

FAQ
Can I use a free VPN for Meta Quest 2?

VR activities tend to use quite a lot of data, so a slow connection is definitely not desirable.
