Why Cyberghost VPN?
Hide your IP address and surf anonymously

CyberGhost VPN lets you surf anonymously by hiding your IP address and replacing it with that of the server you choose to connect to, making it impossible for hackers, third parties or other organizations to track you or meddle in your business.
Protect your private data

Every time you connect through CyberGhost VPN a protective tunnel is formed around your information and all your data becomes encrypted. You don’t have to worry anymore about passwords, financial transactions or private conversations.
Unblock websites

By using CyberGhost VPN you can bypass filters and firewalls and access location-restricted or blocked websites. like Facebook, Twitter, Skype and YouTube from school, university or work.
Safely use torrents

If you want to be secure and anonymous while using programs like BitTorrent to download or upload content, make sure your internet connection is encrypted and your IP hidden with Cyberghost VPN.
A must if you're an expat or travel a lot

CyberGhost VPN allows you to unblock sites like NBC, Netflix, Hulu or CBS and watch your favorite TV shows from another country. It also keeps you anonymous and protects your data when connected to public Wi-fi.

    No mac support ? :(

      Currently some of our users are facing some problems setting up an OpenVPN connection on their Tunnelblick. It is a known problem and we're currently working on it. Until it's solved, we recommend you to connect via Viscosity. You can download it from here and we've prepared a tutorial which will guide you through the setup. Read it here.

    • Their "premium" service (which I assume this code is for) supports OpenVPN, L2TP/IPSec and PPTP. They also have instructions for OS X and iOS here: https://support.cyberghostvpn.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/L…

    Fk. I just paid $15 for this

    • -1

      This isn't the premium service, these would be the same sort of codes given out last year, where you don't get access to all servers and only get a set amount of priority bandwidth. I assume the premium servers would fast:

      FYI:

      Free VPN

      A 1 Mb/s speed cap
      Advisements – users will be shown at least 17 seconds of advertisements when they first connect, plus some more ads every 2 hours
      No free choice of servers - free VPN users are automatically connected to an available server, although CyberGhost do say this will usually be located close-by
      Automatic disconnection after 6 hours of use (users can immediately reconnect, but see below…)
      Users must manually reconnect after disconnection (no auto-reconnect)
      Users of the free plan are connected via the secure OpenVPN protocol, but only its weakest (128-bit) version.

      VPN Premium (£4.49 / $6.99 p/m)

      The Premium plan is quite reasonably priced compared to the competition, and offers the following advantages:

      Unlimited bandwidth – CyberGhost claim an average throughput of 6Mb/s, which we will put to the test later in this review
      Unlimited traffic
      Free choice of servers - over 50 are available, however all but 5 are located in Europe, with the other 5 being located in the US
      No adverts, waiting queue, automatic disconnection after 6 hours, or other such restrictions placed on the free service
      Automatic reconnection
      Not mentioned on the website, but when you open a new account in the VPN client you are offered a 30 day absolutely free trial of the Premium VPN service.
      Open VPN encryption is still 128-bit, but Premium users can also connect via PPTP and L2PT with IPSec (all also with 128-bit encryption).

      VPN Premium Plus (£6.99 / $10.99 p/m)

      The Plus plan builds on the VPN Premium package, offering the following additional advantages:

      Up to 5 devices can be connected simultaneously
      Access to VPN servers on an extended server park, which have been configured for secure 256-bit OpenVPN encryption

      • Hey there,

        Thanks for sharing this about the privacy service, CyberGhost VPN. Just a few important corrections that would make people ever happier:
        - CyberGhost VPN does not have a speed limit, you can now manually choose your servers from 20 servers from 14 countries.
        - We have 256-bit encryption on all our servers, FREE & Paid :)
        - On the Premium version we have 38 servers in the US and almost 200 in Europe and no disconnection at all.
        - 256-bit encryption with Open VPN also since you connect to our servers.

        Cheers and enjoy using CyberGhost VPN!

        p.s. you can contact us on FB and Twitter also ;)

    Its tell me my serial is invalid

    • i received my code within a second and i've successfully activated it. followed the instructions and installed Viscosity soft. downloaded the configuration for MAC and initially it was struggling to connect…but finally when i visit whatismyip.com it shows US address. But i don't know i am using VPN or DNS. But i can confirm that it is working and my account with cyberghost shows i have 364 days left.

      • -4

        That doesn't help/relate to me at all?

        • What the hell is with all the negative votes?

          Akula's comment didn't relate or help my problem at all, I don't see how stating that is a bad thing. I recieved an invalid serial from CyberGhost, Akula didn't.

  • Serial number already activated or could not be found :(

  • Sorry guys i am pretty new to this VPN stuff. What protocol or what should i do for watching netflix and hulu. I hear DNS is a little bit better than VPN. How do i configure this into my modem/router and where does this PPTP/L2TP comes into play ? Cheers.

    • If your going to use only your computer get Hola Unblocker or MediaHint extensions on chrome or firefox

      • i tried all those above but shows like thedailyshow and colbertreport get struck or won't load after 10 mins or so.

  • And how do i subscribe to netflix. When i proceed to checkout through Paypal..it rejects because Netflix doesn't accept non-us account. ? and one more thing…i have 2 -3 CC (thankx OZB for Citi Signature). can i use them for 3 accounts and get 3 free months ?

    • Use a CC.

      • CC with US address ?

        • +1

          I just put my address but with Portland as city and zipcode

    • +1

      Whatever your billing address post code is for your CC (6150 as an example) is find a US zip code with the last 4 numbers being 6150.
      Put in your actual address in your "new" city and state.
      Should work.

      Also call your CC company and tell to please accept charges from Netflix. This step not necessary unless you CC company has a habit of freaking out every time you buy something weird on line.

      A better service for Netflix and Hulu is unblock-us.com rather than using a VPN.

  • Does it work for everyone ?

    • I got a code sent to me after entering my "spam" email address - so seems ok. Don't need it yet, I wonder if there is a time limit to use it… how's everyone's German?

      • I obtained a previous offer and did not activate for some months.
        When I tried to activate it the code had expired.
        I believe there is a time limit in which the code must be activated or it will expire

      • I missed out on this deal by a few minutes but I really needed it. If you decide not to use it soon (it will expire) may I please have it? I'll put it to good use, thanks.

    Works! Thanks OP!

  • +3

    It works, but the locations for the VPN are very limited..

    Poland, Netherlands, Russia (Yay!), Czech Republic, Switzerland, Romania, USA & Germany.

    The account is "Special Edition 3"

    • may i ask why yay for mother Russia ?

      • +5

        Steam, and other downloadable gaming sites..

        • u cant buy using vpn from russia and its against their tos which they can ban without warning

        • yawn

        • +1

          Yes you could get your account banned although very unlikely. No one in Australia will stop you and heres recommendation 5 from a Parliamentary inquiry:

          Recommendation 5
          The Committee recommends that the Australian Government amend the
          Copyright Act’s section 10(1) anti-circumvention provisions to clarify
          and secure consumers’ rights to circumvent technological protection
          measures that control geographic market segmentation.

          Recommendation 6 basically says the public needs to be taught how to do it.

  • I wouldn't trust the software included.

  • I got this free last year. It's not very good but I have it in my back pocket in case a friend needs a VPN.

    • Hey there?

      What problems did you encounter with CyberGhost? Please write them at [email protected] so we can help you.

      Thanks!

  • Sounds good but the installer is a special installer that has christmas in the exe file, which leads me to believe you won't be able to download any updates. The key will likely only work with this version of it.

    Still worth keeping as a back up just in case.

    I just use free VPNs since I'm only using it to bypass geolocking for price discrimination.

    • Hey,

      There is no problem with the installer :) You will be able to download updates and use the key on the following versions. Where did you hear that you can't?

      If you have any suggestions for any feel free to write to us on Facebook and Twitter, we are listening :)

      Thanks for using our service.
      Cheers!

    "There are no serial numbers at your disposal"

    Expired?

    • I really really needed this. If anyone has a spare serial would you kindly PM it to me? I'd be very grateful.

  • Expired.

  • Expired, I believe. It says "There are no serial numbers and costs supply" (translated in English) :(.

    • Can someone PM me a code, if you do not need it. Thnx in advance..

      • Can someone PM me a code, if you do not need it. Thnx in advance..

        I second that!
