User reviews

Users initially found SetupVPN useful with easy access to multiple servers and good unblocking capabilities. However, many currently experience frequent connectivity failures, persistent captcha problems, and forced limited free usage after mandatory registration. Stability issues like sudden disconnections and slow speeds are common complaints. While some praise its simplicity and occasional reliability, the extension struggles with consistency and user trust due to these repeated faults.
Pros
  • Has multiple server locations available.
  • Can connect quickly and sometimes unblock services like Spotify and YouTube.
  • Free to use with some limitations.
  • Provides good support when it works.
  • Simple interface and easy to use.
Cons
  • Frequently stops working or fails to connect.
  • Requires registration but limits free use time (often 15 or 30 minutes).
  • Has persistent captcha issues that prevent completing setup.
  • Unstable connection requiring frequent reconnections every 15-30 minutes.
  • Reported slow speeds and occasional crashes or the need to restart Chrome.
