Good News For SmartHide V.I.P. and Two Continents Subscription Users

Monday, January 23rd, 2012

Today we have some new things that we implemented to make the process of port forwarding easier on Personal USA IP or Personal EUR IP. This opportunity will help advanced users to configure personal SmartHide connection according to personal preferences.

We have improved the port forwarding process considerably. Before that, some users had issues with port forwarding. Now all these issues are fixed and the work with ports is smooth and stable.

Port Forwarding is a technology used to connect to your local Computer behind NAT (NAPT) from the Internet. The process of accessing means the directing of certain Ports traffic from external IP of a router to any computer in the local network.

This port forwarding is helpful when someone use peering networks (p2p) or there is a need to set up a server on a local computer with the access to the Internet. Moreover, port forwarding is used for multiplayer online games (MMOG).

SmartHide is ready to release another update of its software. As always, it looks modern and all the users will notice an increase in stability and speed of Internet connection.

1. The main innovation in a new release for Windows is an improved Portable edition performance.

2. Another great thing is that now everyone can use full or portable SmartHide with other Open VPN at once at the same PC.

3. SmartHide users now are able to run SmartHide Portable with a key “/notapinstall” which means that software will check if there’s already appropriate TAP driver in the system and will use it. If there’s no TAP driver in the system, SmartHide will suggest to install it.

When SmartHide Portable (with /notapinstall key) session is over, TAP driver won’t be removed as it happened in older Portable editions. It ensures the performance of other clients that use this driver. It is also should be noted that even if TAP driver is installed with SmartHide and used itself by SmartHide, the key above won’t allow to delete a driver when software is switched off.

4. SmartHide Update process became faster and easier.
