Cross-border network acceleration service

Global nodes and routes across 100+ countries

VPNBF runs 230+ routes across Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe and other regions, organized into three types: IEPL dedicated lines, relay routes and direct routes. This page lists routes by region, explains how the three types differ, and gives route picks by use case.

Route list

Global routes by region

The table below lists representative route entry points by region. Country and city show where the exit actually lands; route type describes how that entry connects. The Streaming column marks the platforms this route most often reaches in everyday use — platform policies change at any time, so what actually opens is the final word. The full route list is visible after signing in to the app.

About route status

This page lists static route information only: country, city and route type. Live availability, current latency and bandwidth figures are read in real time from the dashboard after you sign in to the app — they are not hard-coded here. This page shows no online user counts, load percentages or uptime promises: numbers like those cannot be verified by a third party, so publishing them would mean nothing.

Route type

How the three route types differ

The same cross-border access need can feel very different — and cost very different — depending on the route type you use. Below we break down all three: how traffic travels, what each one suits, and what you give up. When picking a route, start with your use case, then the route type; that works better than going by country name alone.

Point-to-point link Dedicated cross-border segment

IEPL dedicated line

IEPL is a point-to-point international Ethernet private line provided by carriers: both ends of the link are connected directly by the carrier, and the cross-border segment never shares a public internet exit with other users. Traffic enters the private line at the local entry point and exits abroad, on a fixed path with few detours. It suits workloads that are sensitive to jitter: streaming output from AI tools, long-lived remote desktop and video conference sessions, and development environments that need to stay online. The trade-off is the highest cost of the three route types, so IEPL is deployed mainly at high-demand core locations such as Singapore, Tokyo, Frankfurt and Zurich.

Best for: AI tools, long-session meetings, remote work

Relay landing Skips peering bottlenecks

Relay route

Relay routes also use optimized links for the cross-border segment, but traffic is forwarded once at a relay node before reaching the exit in the target region. Compared with direct routes, the extra hop is worth it because it bypasses peering bottlenecks between some carriers, making packet loss less likely during the evening peak. Compared with IEPL dedicated lines, relay routes cost less and can cover more cities, which is why they are the largest group in the route list. When choosing, check first whether the relay node sits close to your local network — within the same country, entry points in different cities do not perform the same.

Best for: everyday browsing, streaming, general cross-border access

Local exit Clean region detection

Direct route

Direct routes exit straight into a local data center in the target region, with the cross-border segment relying on optimized public internet routing. Their strength is a genuine landing location and clean region detection, which suits cases that need a local exit in the target region: signing up for and logging into region-sensitive services, viewing content that is only available in certain regions, and reaching apps that authorize or rate-limit by IP location. How well a direct route performs depends heavily on the public internet quality from your local carrier to that region, and results can vary by location and broadband provider. Test with a short-term data pack first, then decide which one to use long term.

Best for: region-sensitive logins, local content, light browsing

Route picks

Pick a route by use case

No route is simply good or bad — what matters is whether it matches your use case. Below are priority picks for five common scenarios: choose the region first, then the route type, and finally compare two candidates in the app and keep the one that performs better.

Everyday browsing and search

Start with relay routes in Asia-Pacific: Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore entry points work well with most broadband connections in mainland China. Web and search apps are not sensitive to jitter, so a dedicated line is unnecessary; keep one entry point fixed and switch less often for more stable region detection.

Streaming

Check which region your target platform serves, then pick a route marked as supporting it: Netflix and Disney+ usually work through US, Japan and Singapore entry points, while European content goes through UK and Germany. For 4K playback, prefer an IEPL dedicated line or a high-quality relay route, and avoid switching exits mid-stream.

AI tools and long sessions

AI chat sessions run on long-lived connections with streaming output, making them far more jitter-sensitive than web browsing. Prefer an IEPL dedicated line (Singapore, Tokyo, Frankfurt, Zurich), and keep the same route during sign-up and login to reduce the extra verification that frequent region changes can trigger. For more detailed setup notes, see the Complete AI Guide.

Online gaming

For gaming, what matters is a nearby entry point and a stable path. Japan, Singapore and Seoul are the easy picks; for US or EU game servers, choose the region where the server sits. Once you are in a game, avoid switching routes frequently — switching resets the session, and some games flag it as a suspicious login.

Cross-border work and meetings

For work, pick one IEPL dedicated line and stay with it: meetings and file transfers are sensitive to packet loss, and a fixed exit keeps your collaboration platform's login history clean. When several people share one account, the unlimited simultaneous connections policy lets a laptop and a phone each hold their own connection without affecting each other.

Coverage

What makes up 100+ countries / 230+ routes

VPNBF routes cover 100+ countries, 230+ routes in total. That figure does not count different ports on the same machine as separate routes: each route is an independent landing entry point with its own city location, access type and exit ownership. Asia-Pacific centers on Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea, rounded out by Malaysia, Thailand and Australia. North America covers Los Angeles, San Jose, New York, Vancouver and Montreal. Europe is led by Frankfurt, London, Paris, Amsterdam and Zurich, extending to Stockholm, Milan and Madrid. There are also entry points in Mumbai, Dubai, Istanbul and São Paulo for access needs in South Asia, the Middle East and South America.

Routes are organized into three types: IEPL dedicated lines sit at the core locations with the heaviest demand, relay routes handle most everyday use, and direct routes provide a local exit with a clean landing location. In the app you can filter by region or type, or search for a country or city by name. When a region has several routes, test each one first, then keep your usual pick fixed.

Simultaneous connections and devices

An account allows unlimited simultaneous connections, and one subscription covers all five platforms — Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and Linux. A laptop, phone and tablet can be connected at the same time, with no extra charge for a second device. Signing up takes only a username and password, no email address, so you will never receive marketing email either.

Pricing and refunds

Monthly plans come in three tiers: ¥9.9/month with 60GB, ¥18/month with 250GB and ¥28/month with 500GB. Data resets every month on your activation date, and if you upgrade mid-cycle the price difference is converted into remaining days. Data packs last until used up and never expire, which suits occasional users or anyone who wants to run a small test first. Payment is by Alipay / WeChat Pay / USDT, and you can request a no-questions-asked refund within 7 days of your first payment. See the pricing page for plan details.

How to read speed numbers

This site does not publish speed test results, because the same route performs very differently across regions, carriers and times of day — a single hard-coded number would tell you nothing useful. Instead, test it yourself with a data pack: pick two or three candidate routes, run a test during the evening peak and again during the day, and watch latency variation rather than just the peak figure. See the full guide to testing speed yourself.

For setup and per-platform import steps, see Guides. If a route connects but you are not sure it is working, follow the exit IP and DNS checks in the Help Center. For a systematic look at how cross-border access works and how to choose tools, read the Complete AI Guide. Streaming regions and playback requirements are covered in Streaming support.
