iVPN overview

iVPN is the original VPN server for non-server Macs. It uses Apple's built-in, rock solid VPN server; the same used in OS X Server.

iVPN easily creates a standards based PPTP and L2TP VPN server on your home or office Mac. With just a few details and a couple of clicks, you'll be ready to connect securely to your Mac from anywhere in world and from nearly any device!

Using a public WiFi hotspot? iVPN is perfect for you…just connect to iVPN from your device and you instantly have a secure tunnel for all your internet traffic. Never worry about internet banking on the move again!

You can easily keep an eye on all connections to your Mac with the built-in iVPN Monitor. Check what IP address they have connected from and how long they've been connected.

Advanced if you need it! iVPN allows you to add as many users as you want, but if you already have a directory server with all your users, iVPN can link to that too! Custom DNS and static routes means that iVPN can fit into nearly any network environment.

Warning: Do not use iVPN on macOS Server. You will no longer be able to use Server to configure your VPN server.

Currently testing this VPN on a one-month plan. App seems to work well, VPN speeds in U.S. are generally fast, your choice of Wireguard or OpenVPN. Macupdate's price listing for the app is... odd. The app is actually free, and pricing depends on the length of the plan chosen: a week is $2, a month is $6, and so on. (The cheapest deal currently is 3 years for $140, or $3.89/month.)

The MacUpdate link to the Developer Web site results in a 404 Not Found error. So the web site is no longer on that server. Similar issue with the link from the Apple Mac App Store. Is this still a supported product? And does it work on Mojave?

Just installed this on 2 new macOS 10.14.1. Now that Apple has removed the GUI to VPN this is a needed program. In both installs it is working fine. Make sure you are on the newest one from the Website. It does what it is intended to do.

Doesn't start under Yosemite. Support is crappy. Don't buy this !!!! But if this program would work, it would be great and worth 5 stars.
