What is it?

Port forwarding feature allows you to access services on your computer or home network remotely, while connected to Windscribe. This can include things like:

Plex server
Home security cam
NAS
Torrent client web GUI
Web server

Why should I care?

This has multiple advantages:

Your connection is protected — you can remain connected in our clients and gain all the benefits.
Your external IP is not exposed — you no longer need to use your ISP assigned IP to access the resource. These IPs change all the time. A static IP will not.
Free DDoS protection — if you get DDoSed, our servers will shield you from any attack.
Torrent seeding — To get optimal upload speeds, port forwarding is required.

All Pro users have access to ephemeral port forwarding. To get permanent port forwarding, you have to purchase a Static IP.

Why use Windscribe?

Stop tracking and browse privately

Governments block content based on your location. Corporations track and sell your personal data. Get Windscribe and take back control of your privacy.

Take your browsing history to your grave

Protect your browsing history from your network administrator, ISP, or your mom. We don't keep any logs, so your private data stays with you.

Unblock geo-restricted content

Windscribe masks your IP address. This gives you unrestricted and private access to entertainment, news sites, and blocked content in over 50 different countries

Stop leaking personal information

Prevent hackers from stealing your data while you use public WIFI and block annoying advertisers from stalking you online.

Go beyond basic VPN protection

For comprehensive privacy protection, use our desktop and browser combo (they're both free).
