    You can also use the obvious 'whats my ip' in a browser and check if it's changed. But as always, we like to show you different ways 😃

      Thanks, Adam but I think VPN safety dot is the best has a lot of vpns don't let you know if they drop connection and some don't cut off the internet if it's lost where the green circle or red is great has you know straight a way .hope ur family have a great xmas mate .

      I don't know if anybody will reply to this but let's hope somebody will.
      I can afford $34 a year if all of my devices in the house can use the IP Vanish but I'm not rich enough to be paying $70 or $100 a year regardless of whether it's one device or all 6 devices. I.E. Cell Phones (2) or laptops (2) or Firestick's (2)

    An open question please - I have a PC at home that needs to be on our regular "home" IP address, if I install a VPN on my firestick does that have any effect on our home IP address, or are VPN's device-specific?
    Also...if I subscribe to a VPN on my Firestick or laptop, can I take it to another location (friends house, or abroad on holiday) and will it work on another internet connection, or does it have to stay at the original location?

    I’ve noticed that if you turn on Blokada it knocks your VPN off, & vice versa.
    For some reason the ad blocker doesn’t work with the VPN, which is annoying if you don’t want pop up adverts.

    Hi there, new to your channel, have installed safety dot, which seems to run ok, but when I try the other way of testing by following your instructions and installing Tubi TV, then connecting to USA server and relaunching Tubi, I still get same message, that Tubi is not available in Europe, any idea what is going on? BTW I use Surfshark VPN and when trying to reconnect to Tubi, whilst connected to USA server safety dot is still on.

    I used Downloader and typed in VPN safety dot. Linked to their website and downloaded it from there OK.
    You need to check your file host.
