REGIONS

Countries and regions index

Start with the region your service requires, then check the specific routes in the client. The table below is a regional reference, not a complete coverage list.

“See client” means this page does not list details for that item; it does not mean every route type is available in that region. “Other covered regions” points to a list and is not a route name.

Coverage figures and choosing a route

110+ countries / 160+ routes describes VPNKM’s coverage; more options or a farther location do not necessarily suit your task better. Start with the target service: which region it requires, which entry points the client offers, and whether your current network can complete the connection. Use this static index to explore locations, then refer to the client’s route list for actual use.

City and exit region are different levels of information. The region determines the network location seen by a service, while the city provides a more specific location. Route type describes how the connection is arranged. Don’t infer network quality from a region name alone, or assume a service will accept an exit just because a city is listed.

PATH STRUCTURE

Route types and how they differ

IEPL, transit and direct routes describe different link structures. The label alone does not predict how a route will perform on your current network.

Local access, transit path and destination exit.
Each segment affects the connection.

IEPL

Focus on the transit path

IEPL generally refers to cross-region transport carried over dedicated Ethernet. In subscription services, it describes the transport segment of a route; it does not mean every segment between your device and the target website uses a dedicated connection. Local access, the exit network and the target service’s response all affect performance.

These routes may be worth considering for tasks that need a sustained connection, such as work sessions, longer file transfers or evening browsing. Dedicated transport resources typically have a different cost structure from ordinary public internet routes, but that does not reveal the cost of any individual VPNKM route or imply exclusive resources. See the plans page for pricing.

To see whether a route suits you, compare it with other entry points on the same network and for the same task. Check whether pages load fully, sessions stay connected and transfers finish. If your local Wi-Fi is unstable, changing the transport type may not address the underlying issue.

Transit

Connection routed through an intermediate entry point

A transit route sends the connection to an intermediate entry point before forwarding it along another link to the exit. The extra hop makes it possible to combine paths across different networks; it is not simply a way to reduce geographic distance. The entry point and exit region serve different purposes: the destination region shown in the client does not reveal which intermediate networks the connection uses.

Transit routes may be a good option for everyday browsing, video streaming and accessing tools. Resource costs depend on the entry point, forwarding path and exit, so transit is not a fixed price tier. A well-organized path may work better on a particular local network; congestion along the way can also affect performance.

It can be useful to keep an alternative entry point in the same region. If a service requires a consistent region, you can try a different path without changing the exit location. After switching, test the task itself rather than treating a successful client connection as the final check.

Direct

Connect more directly to the exit

A direct route generally connects to the destination exit without an additional transit entry point. “Direct” describes the route structure; network traffic may still pass through carrier routing and interconnections. It does not mean there are no other networks between your device and the exit, nor does it guarantee better performance at all times.

Direct routes have a simpler structure. They can help check basic connectivity from your current network to an exit, and serve as a reference path for everyday access. They typically require fewer additional transit resources, but actual costs also depend on the exit network and transport resources. This does not mean a particular subscription tier offers direct routes only.

If a direct route completes your task on your current network, there is no need to switch just because another route name sounds more sophisticated. If the same entry point performs differently across networks, check local access and carrier routing as well as the client settings.

Route costs are not plan prices

The cost differences above are a general explanation of route structures, not VPNKM’s route tiers. This page does not assign prices to IEPL, transit or direct routes, or imply benefits that have not been published. For monthly subscriptions and data packages, including allowances, billing periods and prices, see the full plan details.

USE CASES

Choose a route by use case

Set the destination and use case first, then compare possible entry points. Change one factor at a time to make the source of any difference easier to identify.

Everyday browsing

For everyday browsing, first check whether the target website requires a specific region. If not, try a geographically nearby exit, but don’t use distance as your only measure. Open familiar pages and check that images, login status and embedded resources load properly; seeing the homepage does not confirm that every site resource followed the expected path.

Rule-based mode can route traffic by app or domain, depending on the client configuration. If some resources fail to load, check the rule matches first, then test the same route for comparison. If switching modes fixes the issue, review your routing rules instead of cycling through regions.

Streaming and content libraries

Before streaming, check your account’s region, membership access and whether the title is available there, then choose an appropriate exit. Platforms may identify exits differently, so the same region name does not guarantee the same catalog. Test by opening the title and starting playback, rather than checking only whether the platform homepage loads.

Try to keep the same exit throughout playback. Repeatedly changing regions can make issues harder to diagnose and may prompt the platform to verify your account again. If playback buffers, first determine whether all websites are affected or only this title or platform, then check your local network, route or platform status as appropriate.

AI Tools

Accessing AI tools depends on both your network connection and eligibility to use the service. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Cursor and other tools have their own regional and account requirements; choosing an exit does not override them. Check the service’s terms and availability, and use an account and region combination that complies with its rules.

For everyday use, check whether sign-in, ongoing responses, file uploads and editor requests work. If a website loads but app requests fail, check the proxy settings in the browser and app separately. Keeping the exit relatively consistent can help distinguish account verification, app configuration and network path issues. For more on this use case, see AI access guide →

Gaming connections

Gaming depends more on connection stability and route changes than on download speed alone. Check the game server region, account region and client compatibility, then test sign-in, matchmaking and gameplay. A subscription service can provide network connectivity, but a general-purpose route is not a dedicated optimization for every game.

Choose a route before joining a match, and avoid changing exits repeatedly during a session. If your browser works but the game cannot connect, check whether the current routing mode includes the game process and whether the client supports the connection method it needs. If the problem continues, save the error message and follow the troubleshooting steps.

Work and meetings

For work, follow your organization’s requirements for networks, data and accounts. A cross-border route does not replace company authorization and should not conflict with your organization’s approved connection methods. When choosing a route, consider document saving, file transfers, meeting audio and video, and keeping sessions connected—not just how quickly one website opens.

Before an important meeting or long transfer, test the same app on the same network. If you also use a corporate connection tool, check how the two routes interact to avoid conflicts caused by both handling the connection. VPNKM supports unlimited devices, but check the settings on each one. Data allowances are determined by your chosen plan.

BEFORE SWITCHING

How to check connection results

Separate issues into access, configuration, exit and target service instead of switching routes repeatedly without a clear diagnosis.

Check local access and subscription status

First, make sure your current network is working, then sign in to the account dashboard to check your plan and subscription status. The client and subscription are available after signing in; a valid paid plan is also required to download the client. For specific Windows / macOS / iOS / Android / Linux instructions, see the getting started guide. Don’t replace your account subscription with configuration files from unknown sources.
Check the exit and the app you’re using

A connected status in the client only confirms that the connection process reached that state. Check whether the target app is using the connection and whether the region seen by the service is as expected. Browsers and desktop apps may use different settings, so test them separately; one app’s results do not represent the whole device.
Keep conditions constant, then try another route

Keep the target website, device and local network unchanged, then try another entry point in the same region. If the task requires a specific region, don’t switch countries first. If the issue persists, try a different access network. Note the affected app, route name, error message and circumstances. When submitting a support ticket, do not include your password, full subscription URL or sensitive payment details.
