Putting the “network” into VPN
VPN stands for virtual private network, but, in most cases, it’s hardly a network at all. Traditional consumer VPNs work by connecting users to a selected server using VPN technology. This means that their traffic enters and exits the same server.
Our solution is Nexus — a technology that connects all our existing VPN servers together. Connecting to Nexus means your traffic is routed through a network of servers rather than a single VPN tunnel. This obscures and hides your traffic, stabilizes performance, and enhances your VPN connection speed.
New technology, new unique VPN features
Rotating IP
Automatically switches your IP address every five minutes within your chosen location. Even if you stay connected to the same country or city, your IP address will change.
Multi IP
Routes your internet traffic through a different IP address for every new session or website you visit. All your resources and sessions will have different IP addresses.
Multi Hop
Allows you to select both double VPN servers manually and create completely custom server pairs, controlling where your traffic enters and leaves.
Nexus for unmatched VPN performance
In addition to the new features, you will benefit from:
Better VPN performance
Nexus optimizes network performance by directing traffic according to its patterns. Whether you are downloading, streaming, or browsing, you’ll be able to do it faster.
Important: Surfshark does not track your activity or the pages you visit.
Better speeds
With Nexus, many speed issues — both local and international — are solved. You’ll be able to connect through the best–performing server and exit the Nexus network anywhere you want.
Better connection
Experience more stable connections and receive better protection from DNS and data packet leaks. Overall, there will be fewer network disruptions during connection optimizations and server maintenance.
