eDarussalam Survey

What information were you looking for?
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) often impose restrictions that can severely affect online gaming experiences, such as blocking access to popular gaming platforms and tools. To combat these challenges, gamers can use Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) or proxy servers. VPNs offer a secure, encrypted connection that masks the user's IP address, thereby circumventing geo-restrictions and ISP throttling. Proxy servers, although faster, provide less security as they do not encrypt data. Additionally, changing DNS servers is another effective method to bypass ISP filtering, allowing gamers to access blocked services by using alternative DNS addresses that do not restrict traffic to gaming sites.
