Regions
Browse International Routes by Region
VPNAmp covers 100+ countries and 160+ routes. The table below is an index of popular regions, not a complete server list, and does not mean the same entry points, cities, or route types are available in every region at all times. Sign in to the user panel to see current routes. After importing your subscription, the names shown in your client should match the current subscription.
When reading the table, distinguish between country or region, city, and route type. Country or region gives an initial indication of the exit location; city narrows down the destination; route type describes how the connection is routed. These fields are not interchangeable: a region in a route name does not confirm a dedicated route, nor does it mean every website will identify the exit as the same city.

On narrow screens, scroll the table horizontally. The public index does not show connection performance readings, and its row order does not rank route quality.
To find a destination not listed in the index, first check the route information in the user panel, then update your client subscription. Don’t rely on old screenshots or route names saved by other users to determine current coverage. If the panel and client don’t match, confirm that you’re using the correct account and subscription source, then follow the guide to update your subscription. This helps prevent an outdated configuration from being mistaken for the current service directory.
How Routing Works
IEPL, Relay, and Direct Routes
Route types describe how a connection is arranged; they are not ratings of the experience. The following explains common networking terms and does not mean VPNAmp offers every type in every region. Check the user panel for explicit route labels. If a route isn’t labeled, don’t classify it based only on its name, price, or a single test.
IEPL: A Managed Transmission Segment
IEPL generally refers to an international Ethernet private line, with managed transmission links connecting different locations. In a network service, a private line may cover only one segment of the full connection path, rather than running all the way from your device to the destination website. Your local Wi-Fi, ISP access, and the connection from the exit to the destination service can still affect the experience.
These resources typically involve dedicated link procurement and maintenance, with a different cost structure from ordinary public network routes. For meetings, ongoing work, or tasks that benefit from a steadier connection, check whether the user panel explicitly identifies a relevant route. But “private line” does not mean every app will be faster at all times. Test the full task in your actual environment before choosing a route.
Relay: Connect Through an Intermediate Entry Point
A relay route sends the connection to an intermediate entry point first, then forwards it to the relevant exit. Separating the entry and exit gives the service more flexibility in how it organizes the path. Whether it suits your network depends on each segment: device to entry, entry to exit, and exit to destination. The entry point’s proximity to you alone isn’t enough to judge.
Relay routes involve costs for entry resources, forwarding, and link maintenance. The investment varies with the route arrangement, so it can’t be summed up with a fixed price multiplier. For everyday browsing or tasks involving different destinations, consider a relay route as an option to test. If a route performs poorly, try a different path rather than repeatedly switching between similarly named entry points of the same type.
Direct: Fewer Server-Side Forwarding Steps
A direct route generally means your device connects to the relevant service entry point over the public internet, without an additional, purpose-built relay entry point. “Direct” describes the routing arrangement; it doesn’t mean the physical distance is shorter or that fewer network devices are involved. The actual path still depends on ISP peering and network conditions.
This approach typically avoids the resource overhead of a dedicated relay, but exit resources and maintenance still have costs. It shouldn’t be assumed to mean lower prices or lower quality. If your ISP has a suitable path to the entry point, a direct route may work well for browsing and research. Compare results for the same use case instead of ruling out or favoring a route based on terminology alone.
Use Cases
Choose Cross-Border Routes by Use Case
Different apps have different network requirements. Being able to open a webpage doesn’t mean video will keep playing; sending a short message doesn’t prove a large file will transfer reliably. Test with the tasks you do most often, note the connection region and results, and build a shortlist of primary and backup routes suited to your network.
Everyday Browsing: Check That the Whole Page Loads
When reading, viewing documents, or visiting international websites, check that the main content, images, sign-in components, and attachments all load. Start with a route that fits the destination’s regional requirements, then open the site you actually use. If text loads but images don’t, check for split-tunneling rules or differences in domain resolution before assuming all routes are unavailable.
For regular use, keeping a route that works well makes it easier to spot problems than choosing a new one each time you open the client. During testing, avoid changing browser extensions, proxy mode, and network settings all at once. Otherwise, even if things start working again, it’s hard to tell which change made the difference.
Streaming: Test the Regional Catalog and Playback Separately
Streaming catalogs may depend on the exit region, account settings, licensing arrangements, and the platform’s detection policies. Choosing an exit in a particular country doesn’t guarantee access to all content there. First check whether the title appears, then test playback; catalog visibility and playable content are separate checks.
Test on your usual device and at your usual video quality. Check whether playback continues smoothly and resumes after seeking. If browser and app results differ, check whether they use the same proxy route. After switching routes, close and reopen the streaming app if needed so it doesn’t keep using an existing connection through the previous exit.
AI Tools: Keep the Access Region and Session Consistent
When using AI tools such as Cursor and Gemini, check more than whether the website opens: verify sign-in, responses, file uploads, and in-app requests. The destination service’s regional rules, account eligibility, and service status are independent of your network route. Connecting does not change eligibility or guarantee that every feature will be available.
If the website works but the desktop app doesn’t, first check the app’s proxy settings and the client’s split-tunneling mode to confirm the relevant requests use the proxy route. If you already have an active session, avoid switching exit regions repeatedly, as this may trigger additional account checks or make troubleshooting less conclusive. See the troubleshooting guide for more details.
Gaming: Check the Region and Connection Method First
Game connectivity may involve the launcher, account system, update service, and live game servers. Being able to sign in to the launcher doesn’t mean gameplay traffic follows the same route. Check the game region first, then confirm that your client supports the connection method the game requires. Don’t infer compatibility from the region name alone.
This page does not guarantee support for any specific game. If there are no clear setup instructions, check the app and client compatibility requirements before proceeding. During testing, avoid downloading updates or syncing large files at the same time; these tasks affect your local connection and can make route comparisons unreliable.
Work: Test Meetings, Documents, and File Transfers
For work, test your actual workflow: signing in to your organization account, opening shared documents, joining meetings, uploading attachments, and reconnecting after a drop. If your company provides a dedicated access tool, follow its network and data-handling requirements. Avoid using multiple proxy tools that change system settings at the same time.
VPNAmp supports unlimited devices online at the same time. Actual performance may still vary between devices: a computer connected by Ethernet and a mobile device on Wi-Fi have different local network conditions. Troubleshoot each device separately; one device working doesn’t prove the others are configured correctly.
Connection Checks
Build a Repeatable Route-Selection Process
-
Check Your Subscription and Client
Sign in to the user panel and check your subscription status, then update the subscription in your client. Confirm that you’ve selected the newly imported configuration, and check that the system proxy or in-app proxy is enabled as described in the guide. Settings differ across Windows / macOS / iOS / Android / Linux; follow the instructions for your platform rather than copying option names from another device.
-
Start Testing with the Destination Region
If the app has regional requirements, choose an exit based on those rules. If not, start with a route in the user panel that fits your use case. After connecting, use the IP lookup tool to check your browser’s exit location. Keep in mind that a browser lookup doesn’t confirm that other apps use the same route.
-
Complete a Real Task Before Changing Anything Else
Use a website or app you visit regularly and complete a full task. If something goes wrong, keep your current settings and change only the route, then repeat the same task. If the result doesn’t change, check your local network, split-tunneling rules, or the destination service. This order helps distinguish routing issues from app issues and avoids changing multiple settings at once with no clear way to trace the cause.
-
Keep a Backup and Refresh It Regularly
Once you find a suitable route, save it as a favorite if your client supports that, and keep an alternative with a different path. When the route directory is updated, check that your favorites still point to valid configurations. Don’t rely on old names copied down manually, and don’t share your subscription URL with someone else to configure it for you.
Troubleshooting
When a Route Fails, Identify Where the Problem Is
If no apps can connect, first check that your local network is working, your subscription is valid, the client is running, and the system proxy points to the current client. If only one website fails, investigate the destination service, app routing rules, regional requirements, and domain resolution. Different symptoms call for different checks; there’s no need to delete every configuration right away.
If switching to another local network fixes the issue, investigate the original connection environment. If other devices work on the same network, compare the client download source, selected configuration, and system settings first. A single test doesn’t prove that a route is permanently unavailable. For the full troubleshooting process, see Troubleshooting.
For help, submit a support ticket through the user panel. Include your platform, client name, selected route, affected app, approximate time the issue occurred, and steps you’ve already tried. Mask account credentials, subscription URLs, and private content in screenshots; include only the relevant error message, not your full browsing history.
