This guide will demonstrate how to set up and use a VPN while you’re cheating in your favorite game
1. Choose a Reliable VPN Service
- Select a VPN service that is reputable and has a good track record for security and privacy.
- We recommend using one of the trusted providers listed below:
PAID (recommended)
FREE
- Nord VPN (free 30 day trial)
- PrivadoVPN Free
- Proton VPN
2. Install the VPN Software
- Download and install the VPN’s software on your device. All VPN providers should offer very specific and easy-to-follow instructions for setting it up on which ever operating system you have.
3. Configure the VPN Settings
-
Open the VPN software and log in with your account credentials.
-
Also, make a point generally to pick a server location that’s geographically close to you, as that will help minimize latency.
-
Switch on any extra security features the VPN offers, such as a kill switch or DNS leak protection.
4. Connect to the VPN Server
-
Once you have configured the settings, connect to the chosen VPN server.
-
Wait for the connection to complete and make sure the VPN is running and working.
5. Verify Your IP Address
- You can test that your VPN is working properly by checking your new IP address – either by doing an IP address lookup online or by looking within your computer’s software for the VPN.

6. Launch Your Game
- With the VPN active, launch your game and log in to your account.
- Play the game with an extra security blanket that protects you from likely strokes of the banhammer.
