I have been using StrongVPN for several months now and I am less than satisfied with the service. I currently live in Malaysia and have a 4 mgb connection. By the time it reaches San Francisco (the closest opennet connection which is supposed to be 2 mgb) it is down to less than 1 mgb. I wanted to use StrongVPN for streaming US TV but the connection is so slow that it next to impossible. It will still work for internet companies that require a US IP address, but that is about all. When I contacted the customer service people, they told it wasn’t their fault. They don’t throttle the connection speed. It was all the connections between here and there. I have changed opennet connections a number of times trying to find a faster connection to no avail. The average number of hops is 7 and there is degradation at about 4 of them. By the time it reaches SF, it is below 1 mgb. I will definitely search for a better service once this contract is up. Additionally, while traveling here in SE Asia, I have had difficulty in using the connection at many locations. I try to connect and it is not recognized.
