  • Here we go and welcome to this in-depth Deeper Connect Mini review. Deeper Network reached out to me to try out their latest and greatest decentralized VPN and Firewall solution. In times of gigabit internet connections, Wifi 6, and a ton of network devices this tiny box checks all the boxes for a modern and inexpensive network security device with a one-time payment. We take a look at the device itself, the basic functionalities and I tried it for a couple days in my own home network setup to give you some insights.

      Thanks for your comment. I did some speed tests and I had no problem whatsoever to reach the estimated 1Gigabit network speed. It sometime fluctuates but this is more likely due to my ISP and my cable network connection with Docsis 3.1. You definetely get the best results with the smart route features. But even when you go full tunnel the results are in the 100Mbit range. So pretty good in my opinion.

    My internet connection is Fibre, since there is no fibre connection on the deeper connect what would be the work-around? I have been waiting for many months for mine but as yet no delivery. I think this may not be a good option for me as i have several devices connected to the Fibre modem/router directly and then the rest are connected through wireless.
    Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

    • @HansHenderson
      @HansHenderson 3 роки тому +1

      2 1gbps ethernet ports - either one can be "in vs out". The out side is the normal internet. Everything on the in side is protected by Deeper. Put a wifi or wired router on the inside for multiple servers / clients to be protected at the same time.
      Keep devices you don't need the VPN for on the out side.
      The fact you have a fibre connection is irrelevant.

    • @allanmuir5465
      @allanmuir5465 3 роки тому +1

      @@HansHenderson I think it does matter as the fibre connection connects to the modem which has ethernet ports and I have devices connected to these ports on the modem. So I guess any device connected to the modem will not benefit from deeper connect.The deeper connect will connect in between this modem & hard wired to another wireless router in another location. Only the devices connected to the second router will benefit will it not?

      @@allanmuir5465 I clearly stated how to tell / create the In vs the Out sides. Everything you leave on the Out side is unaffected and unprotected.
      You need to build out your In side infrastructure so you have enough connections for the devices you want to keep protected.
      If you think you need more than 1 Gbps buy more than one Deeper Mini, each one will be a separate such In network.

    Well..
    First of all, this is the most high-quality review, of this device, I had seen so far. Thanks for that!
    However, several thing still interest me:
    1. Isn’t “DPN” just a hardware solution, based on a same principal to a TOR, without access to a “dark web”?
    If so, it will heavily depend on a number of such devises in use and on a quality and a speed of their connections.
    2. Either I missed it, or it doesn’t give you an option to do not use it as an exit node. I’m not against such a use, but it heavily depends on a country you’re using it at. In Russia, we had a widely discussed case, when, a persons PC was used as an exit node and someone else had done something illegal, through this node. As a result, despite describing, how it works and having an alibi, the man with a node had been sentenced to jail, just because they couldn’t find a real culprit (you can check it out). So disabling this feature is sometimes important.
    3. Not sure, what the devices business model is. Usually, such devices require a subscription fee for a reason. If they’re free/cheap, 90% of the time it is due to cutting corners or due to a somewhat misleading information (like advertising a proxy as a vpn). Thus, Have anyone checked this device from an hardware and software viewpoints?

      If the government wants your data, they can get it. There’s laws in the U.S. requiring that this is built in to every electronic device sold in the U.S., since the Clinton administration and expanded under Bush. Private companies, however, can be limited. Also, your personal habits will expose you more than the device itself. If you use facebook or any fb apps, for example, there is no way to protect your privacy since you’re giving your identity and data freely to them to use and distribute as they wish.
