Howdy,
Fiber internet is right around the corner. Some neighbors are already
connected and they working their way to my area. Once I get connected,
I also want to use a VPN but only for some programs. Example, I want
Ktorrent and a couple Firefox profiles to use VPNs but at least one
Firefox profile I want to remain outside of VPN. I watched a few videos
but want to be sure I understand this right. If I want software to use
a VPN, I put the IP address of the VPN into the proxy settings of the
program and that makes it use the VPN. If I want it to not use the VPN,
I leave the settings as they are now. Am I understanding this correctly?
Also, the package I'm getting is 500Mbs/sec. What speeds should I
really expect? If memory serves me right, that is about 50MBs/sec, note
the size of the B. By the way, that is about 50 times faster than what
I have now. Also, up and down is the same. Current up stream is a lot
smaller. Basically, I can upload files as fast as I download them. Now
I can upload videos or something.
I'm looking at Surfshark and NordVPN. Both seem to be good and at a
decent price. Anyone used one or both of these?
Just trying to make sure I'm on the right path.
Thanks.

P. S. Seamonkey is still not fetching emails automatically, I'm waiting
on a upgrade to see if it gets fixed then. If not, revive old thread
and bring out the hammer. ;-)
