Two Ways to Protect Your Netherlands Traffic

SOCKS5 or WireGuard VPN — your choice

Both route your torrent traffic through our Amsterdam server. Pick the one that fits your workflow — or use both.

Option 1

SOCKS5 Gateway

Secure only your torrent client through the Amsterdam gateway. Other apps keep their normal connection. Perfect if you already have a VPN.

App-only protection — other traffic unaffected

Works alongside any existing VPN

Auto-configure via Proxy Setup Tool

Managed credentials — auto-generated per profile

Lightweight — minimal performance overhead

Best for: Split-tunnel users, existing VPN users, lightweight setup

Option 2 — Most Popular

WireGuard VPN + Port Forward

Full-PC protection through Amsterdam. IPs with pre-configured port forwarding — built for seeders who need maximum ratio performance.

Full system protection — all traffic secured

IPs with pre-configured ports

Kill switch — traffic stops if VPN drops

Optimized for seeding & private tracker ratios

WireGuard protocol — modern, fast, minimal overhead
