Cache server IP addresses on load
Have VyprVPN Cache the IP addresses it needs to connect a VPN tunnel and optionally use those instead of DNS based connections.
Let me explain why.
One or another of the development tools that I use cause a weird but persistent problem on my PCs. Whenever a new network connection appears on my PC for whatever reason, DNS resolution fails for approx. 5 minutes before starting to work again. The result being that when I need to turn off the VPN I cannot reconnect it again for over 5 minutes, and during that time my PC does not have internet…

Improve performance of VyprVPN client / disable graph
On my laptop, the VPN service takes very little resources, but the client always spikes to 20% CPU every 2 seconds on average, event when no VPN is connected.
Is suspect the speed graph to be the culprit. It looks cool the first time we launch the tool, but is not very useful. The Windows Task Manager displays the same info, and doesn't take so much CPU. It would be great to have a cross icon to completely disable this gimmick.29 votes -

Changing protocol - Make it easier
I would like it to be a little bit
easier to change between the protocols. As it is right now, I feel it is
very clumsy how you change between the protocols. I understand that this is
meant to do only once, but some sort of side menu in the main client window
instead if in a separate tab in the settings would be a better solution.13 votes -

Add an option to Settings to not minimize to taskbar on launch.
Is there a way you can add an option to allow the application to launch in the default active windowed mode versus as minimized to the taskbar?

I just installed and used the new VPN client. I feel there is much needed improvement on the user experience side. The technology side is an
The client interface window is way too BIG! You are not providing alot
of information, but you are taking up alot of desktop room.Too many clicks to get the server I want to connect to.
The fonts are HUGE, thus taking up more app window room.
Overall, i feel that the new VPN app has an accessibility focus instead of
a feature rich focus. I understand the old app is dated, but the user
experience was much better than the new one.4 votes -
Option to stop the connection, if it takes too long trying to connect to a server.

LoopBack / Resource Hog / Color Scheme ?
I'd look to see some sort of loopback thing, where you can force an email client to only work if the vpn is connected. Similar to giganews accelerator where you use local host as the server in the news client, and it runs only if the accelerator is running. I would like this for travelling, with the old vpn it would disconnect on its own in hotels / airports / public wifi etc, and the email client would auto check for emails on the public wifi network in the clear. In the same vein when travelling force the browers to…

Better location for the Log out button
Someone mentioned this for iOS app, but i would like the same feature in win 7 (x64) desktop, either on the VyprVPN app screen itself, or a right-click option in the task bar icon.
A log out button.
Instead of having to open the app's interface, then go into options, then account. Just seems convoluted to me. Could be much simpler.

Open the "Feedback"-Website in the default browser
If I click the "Feedback"-Button the program (VyprVPN for Windows) open a website in Firefox. But my default browser is Chrome.
A notice that the programm open a website to sent feedback would be also good. I click this button often by mistake.

Reykjavík
Something is wrong with the city name "Reykjavík"... Even after your correction. Check out my screenshots.
English spelling: Reykjavík
German spelling: Reykjavík
French spelling: Reykjavik
Spanish spelling: ReikiavikJust my two cents.

Translate the full VyprVPN program
The user interface is in the appropriate system language, but the error messages ("Connection could not be established", "disconnected") are as usual always in English. Very low priority, but can you please translate this in the next (major) versions?
6 votesWe have translated the error messages and application connection states “Disconnected” etc. Please let us know if you see any other translation issues.

Location on the tray icon
When I pass my mouse arrow over the tray icon, the information is Vyprn Connected 10.xx.xx.xx . The internal IP is not very usefull, it would be better to give the location (I know we can obtain it by clicking on the icon).

Full ability to switch to any vpn from the mini icon tray
At the moment we can only select from a few recently connected vpn server with the associated protocol when right clicking on the mini icon tray.
It would be great if we had the ability to switch to any vpn server with any protocol directly from drop down menus for the location and protocol when right clicking on the vypvpn mini icon tray instead of having to open the full setup window to do it.
30 votesUsers can use the server window to desginate favorites. The favorites will appear in the slide-out menu in the taskbar menu.
Support for switching protocols in the taskbar is not on our roadmap.

Add more Indian Server
Add more Indian Server. Add locations like Chennai, Delhi. India is huge. Locations are far away. I'm planning to purchase but locations are too less. Add Some P2P Servers too. Thanks
