What is VPN?

VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. Its function is to establish a private network on a public network for encrypted communication. For example, we often use VPN to bypass internet censorship. Many people have obtained VPN accounts online but do not know how to use them. If you are using the Windows 7 operating system, you generally do not need to install additional software to connect directly. Let's take a look at the specific steps below.

1. Open Network and Sharing Center

In Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> Network and Sharing Center, as shown in the following interface, click on "Set up a new connection or network."

2. Connect to a Workplace

3. Create a New Connection

4. Use My Internet Connection (VPN)

5. Enter Internet Address

In most cases, it is the server IP or a specific link. You can ignore the other options and click Next.

6. Enter Account and Password Information

7. Connection Successful

After entering the account and password information, click Next to connect. If the Internet address, account, and password are correct, you will see a successful connection prompt after a while. If you encounter error 619, you can try again. Finally, let's check our outgoing IP address.

Now we can easily access websites like Google and Facebook. If you don't have a VPN account yet, you can add my QQ 337003006 to request a free 3-day trial account.
