CyberGhost VPN costs $2.19 a month right now, an 83% discount off its $12.99 monthly price. The 2-year plan includes 2 extra months, so $56.94 covers 26 months up front. I use it for streaming more than for privacy, and that side of it surprised me for the money. Here’s why this is quietly the best low-cost VPN for streamers, gamers, and torrenters.
The Server List Names the Platform You Want
CyberGhost labels its streaming servers by service. You scroll to Netflix US, BBC iPlayer, Disney+, or Hulu and click once. The app connects to a server maintained for that platform. You don’t have to try five locations to find one the service accepts. In my testing, the connection came up in a couple of seconds, and 4K playback started without buffering.
Speeds stayed high enough that I never dropped to a lower resolution. I expected a $2 VPN to be slow on US servers from Europe, and it wasn’t. It actually beats more expensive VPNs I recently tested, including the notoriously expensive Astrill VPN. On that note, I compared Astrill VPN to NordVPN recently, and the Panamanian VPN came out ahead in most cases.
Living Room Gets the Same Treatment
CyberGhost has apps for Amazon Fire TV, Android TV and Google TV. A Fire TV Stick installs it straight from the Appstore. Login uses a PIN generated on your phone, so you don’t type a password with a remote. Apple TV, Samsung and LG sets, and the PlayStation get Smart DNS, included in the subscription.
You copy the details from your CyberGhost account into the device’s network settings, and Netflix or Disney+ opens the library you picked. Setup takes about 2 minutes. Smart DNS changes where the streaming service thinks you are without encrypting the traffic, so the TV keeps its full speed.
Protect All Devices With CyberGhost
What $2.19 a Month Includes
The 2-year plan is $56.94 for the first 26 months, charged once. That’s where the 83% comes from, off the $12.99 CyberGhost charges per month. The subscription covers 7 devices at the same time, so a phone, a laptop, and a TV stick can stay connected. The network spans 11,700 servers in 100 countries.
The US, UK, Canadian, Japanese, and Australian catalogs are all in the same server list. There’s a 45-day money-back guarantee on the 2-year plan.
