It's not a VPN. Your traffic is not encrypted point-to-point. It's a DNS-based spoofing system that makes the host site "think" you're in a different part of the world, limited to that part of the negotiation protocol when the site is checking your geo. After that, it's business-as-usual. Consequently, it does not affect latency / throughput at all.

For more on this, google "how does unblock-us work?" - Teleport is similar, supports fewer sites and countries, but is free, while unblock-us is around US$ 5 / 6 pm. Also, Teleport doesn't require you to change your DNS to unblock-us - you use the native MyRepublic DNS. This means MR can route you to local caches and ISP-specific best-routes, which unblock-us has no idea of.

Thx. How about the other question?

What are the devices that you need so many Static IPs? In normal cases, 1 Static IP is more than enough.

Currently I do not have any broadband plan and need one latest by 1st March.

Checked with the staff at Causeway point outlet and he told me the queue is already till May.

Does this mean either I have to either survive 2 months without Internet or choice another provider?

Do you mean your existing contract has ended or totally no Internet as of now?

Hi, MR,

I have 2 questions:

1. What exactly is the technology behind Teleport? Is it just a US VPN service at the backend? In this case, will it affect the latency and throughput when accessing SG or other Asian sites?
2. Home voice: do you support BYOD? I have VoIP phone and asterisk at home and I hope I can use your service directly by configuring asterisk (such as your service name, port, credential, etc.). Possible? I really hate the route to connect your ONT via RJ11 and then convert to digital again.

Thanks a lot.

Varun answered the first...
second ....not meant to...and even if you wish to, the way it works is not the typical VoIP provider... I'm still talking to 3cx to resolve mine....
very Mafan..... better stick to HOIIO.

MyRepublic installation of 1Gbps will only take place in mid March onwards.

Will other ISP also launch similar 1Gbps connectivity package?
