Two new WireGuard locations

Published on 2019-11-18 by AzireVPN team

New location in Gothenburg, Sweden

We have deployed a second location in Sweden, which is the home country of our service. This location may interest users from western Sweden or even western Europe as it may provide better latencies, saving a network round trip to Stockholm.

We are currently renting rackspace in the SHG5 facility and use the network upstream and hosting services of Obehosting AB, which is the same company hosting and connecting our servers to the Internet in Stockholm, Sweden and Oslo, Norway. We are leasing a dedicated 10 Gbit/s uplink, with dedicated 1 Gbit/s ports on the server for up and down traffic, meaning a real 1 Gbit/s capacity.

This location features a WireGuard server using shared IP addresses.

New location in Phuket, Thailand

We have deployed a new location in Phuket, Thailand. This location may interest all our users from eastern Asia or Oceania, especially from China. Thailand is a country close to Singapore therefore this location features great connectivity towards the Internet and should be able to deliver fast speeds.

Even that far, we strove to find the right partner and as with other locations, we got our hardware installed by our team in their data center with a dedicated Internet line.

We are currently renting rackspace in the Phuket Data Center facility and use the network upstream and hosting services of KeFF Networks. We are leasing a dedicated 1 Gbit/s uplink.

We would like to emphasis that we are still evaluating the services of this data center, and therefore, we are interested in feedback and tests from users geographically close to this location. If this location does not give us satisfaction, we will look for another privacy minded data center in Asia.

This location features a WireGuard server using shared IP addresses.

About these two new locations

Having two more locations, this now brings their number from seven to nine, splitted around the world, in seven countries and three continents. They always meet the same quality standards as our other locations, and include all the main features that we propose on them: strong no logging policy, unlimited bandwidth, P2P support, and more.

As with other locations, we did not lease servers, or even worse, rented virtual servers. We bought servers and switches, then some members of AzireVPN's staff traveled abroad to install the hardware themselves ensuring a complete mastering of the procedure for security and quality reasons, without any involved third party.

If you wish to use one of these locations, we invite you to generate configurations on our WireGuard configuration generator.
