REGION INDEX

Browse Routes by Region

Cities indicate the exit region, while route types describe the connection path. “Streaming supported” means a location may be worth trying for relevant viewing; results can vary by title library, account and timing.

ASIA PACIFIC

Asia-Pacific

Choose an exit region based on where the service you want to use is available. Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong can be starting points for everyday browsing and access to Asian services. For regional streaming content, check the library shown by the service.

NORTH AMERICA

North America

If you need a US or Canadian exit, first check which country the website or app requires, then compare routes in that region. A longer distance does not necessarily mean a worse experience; results also depend on your access network and the service you are using.

EUROPE

Europe

European locations can suit work platforms, websites and streaming services that require a local exit. When you know where the service is based, choose that country rather than relying on the broad label “Europe.”

Choose less commonly used exits based on your specific needs. If a website does not require a particular region, there is usually no need to keep switching to a distant city. If it does, verify the actual exit location.

PATH NOTES

IEPL, relayed and direct routes

These three terms describe connection paths, not a ranking from best to worst. Start with the region where the service is available, then consider your network and how you plan to use it. That is usually more useful than choosing by route name alone.

Dedicated routing

IEPL

IEPL stands for International Ethernet Private Line. It uses dedicated transport for cross-region traffic, with the aim of reducing the impact of changes to shared public internet routes. It can suit video calls, remote desktops and extended streaming sessions, where keeping a session connected matters as much as loading a page.

Dedicated routes typically require more resources to provision than standard public internet paths. However, “dedicated” does not mean every segment between your device and a website uses the same network. Your home connection, wireless network, the destination service and the route beyond the exit can all affect performance. After choosing IEPL, test it with the app you actually plan to use rather than assuming the route name guarantees speed.

Multi-stage routing

Relayed routes

A relayed route separates access and exit into different stages: a request first reaches an intermediate access point, then continues toward the destination region. This lets routes be combined based on your network and exit needs. It can suit users who need an exit in a particular country and want to compare how different paths perform. For websites, AI tools and streaming services, a relay is another option worth considering.

Relaying adds a route management stage and may involve additional forwarding costs. Results depend on the network conditions along each segment: an extra hop does not necessarily mean a slower connection, and a relay is not guaranteed to be more stable. If a route repeatedly reloads or drops sessions, try another path in the same exit region first. This helps you distinguish a destination-region requirement from an issue on a particular network segment.

Public internet routing

Direct routes

A direct route generally connects from your local network to the exit without an additional relay stage, making the path easier to understand. For everyday browsing, research or occasional access to a website in a specific region, start by trying a direct route. If the service has no strict location requirement, it can also provide a useful baseline for comparison.

The public internet path used by a direct route can still vary by time of day, access network or destination. Fewer route stages do not make it better than a dedicated or relayed route in every situation. If content does not load fully, first check whether the service requires a particular exit region. If the region is correct but the connection is unstable, compare other route types in the same region. Changing both region and path at once makes it harder to identify the cause.

Cost differences mainly reflect route resources and forwarding methods; they do not directly predict video quality or call performance in a particular app. The route list is a guide to your options. For a meaningful comparison, use the same device and service at roughly the same time.

USE CASES

Choose a Route by Use Case

Start with the service you need, choose an exit region, then compare paths. Considering these factors separately makes it easier to identify what to adjust if something goes wrong.

Browsing

Everyday browsing and research

For everyday browsing, check that pages load smoothly and images and documents appear in full. If a website does not require a specific country, start with a nearby region and test a direct route. If you need region-specific content, switch to the relevant exit. Once a page loads normally, there is no need to keep switching just because route names differ. When using several tabs, check whether the issue affects only one website; a single site failing to load does not necessarily mean the whole route is at fault.

Streaming

Video streaming

First check which region the content is available in, then choose a route in that region marked as supporting streaming. Open the app and check the actual library and playback. Libraries can vary based on your account, platform policies and content licensing, so a support label is no substitute for checking. If playback keeps buffering, try another route in the same exit region first. Switching regions may change the library, making it harder to tell whether the connection improved. For longer viewing sessions, keep an eye on your plan’s remaining data.

AI

Accessing AI tools

Tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini may offer different services depending on your exit region and account status. Check the tool’s regional requirements, choose the appropriate exit, then test the full process: signing in, submitting a prompt and waiting for a response. Seeing the home page does not mean the entire session will work. If generation keeps getting interrupted, keep the exit region fixed and compare direct, relayed or dedicated routes. Avoid changing your account environment and connection region at the same time, so you can identify what affected the result.

Gaming

Gaming and real-time interaction

Check which region hosts the game server, then prioritize routes in that region or a nearby one. Gameplay continuity depends on your local wireless network, the game server and the entire route; no route type guarantees a particular result. Test the connection in an actual match or real-time interaction rather than judging it by the login screen alone. If the connection is intermittent, check your local network first, then compare other available routes in the same region under similar conditions.

Work

Meetings and remote collaboration

Calls, remote desktops and collaborative documents are sensitive to connection drops. Confirm which services your team uses and which exit region the workspace requires. Then prioritize comparing dedicated and relayed routes, and test an actual call or file sync before an important meeting. Switching routes repeatedly during a meeting can interrupt and reconnect your session. To troubleshoot, note the current region and route type, then try alternatives one at a time when they will not disrupt your work. Completing the task reliably matters more than chasing a single test result.

CONNECTION CHECK

What to Check Before and After Connecting

Choosing a route is a process you can verify. Recording your destination, exit region and actual results makes troubleshooting easier than switching routes at random.

Confirm the destination region

Decide which website, app or region-specific content you want to access. If a service requires a particular country, choose that exit; if it has no regional requirement, start with a nearby location. The region answers “where are you connecting from?” while the route type answers “which path does the connection take?” Assess them separately.

Check your actual exit

Once the client shows that you are connected, open the network check page to verify your current exit details, then visit the service. If the result does not match your selected region, first check that your device is using the intended connection settings. Page load speed alone does not confirm that a route is active.

Test the complete task

For browsing, check pages and images; for streaming, check the library and playback; for AI tools, test a full interaction; for work, test a call or document sync. Each task has different criteria. Keep routes that reliably complete your intended task as your usual choices, and use other paths as alternatives.
