SVPN / FIELD GUIDE
Surfshark
The practical choice when your device list keeps growing.
Start here when device count is the constraint. Unlimited simultaneous connections are the differentiator; the trade-off is that you still need to check current plan bundles and renewal terms.

Change protocol
Try the automatic option, then another supported protocol in the app.

A single server can be busy; test a nearby alternative before reinstalling.

05 / FAQ
Questions people ask before paying
Is Surfshark really unlimited?＋
Its official paid-service materials state unlimited simultaneous connections. Fair-use rules still apply, and trial conditions may differ.
Should I use MultiHop all the time?＋
Usually no. It can add privacy separation but also latency. Use it for a defined need, not as a default badge.
Does a VPN block every threat?＋
No. Encryption does not replace updates, phishing awareness, strong passwords or endpoint security.
