  9. Surfshark Bypasser: what it is and when you should use it
  10. Customize your VPN protection in just a couple of clicks.
  11. A VPN is a fantastic tool to keep your personal information private, hide your real location and encrypt your data. However, this layer of protection can sometimes hinder you from carrying on some activities smoothly.
  12. When your phone is connected to one of the best VPN services, you might not be able to access your online banking app for example. And this can happen with various applications, websites or wireless devices like your home printer.
  13. To save you the hassle and risk of switching on and off your security software, Surfshark - one of the cheapest VPN providers around - has developed its Surfshark Bypasser feature. This allows you to customize your VPN protection by excluding or including which data you want to secure inside the encryption tunnel.
  14. How? Let's have a closer look at what Surfshark Bypasser is, how it works and when you should use it.
  15. What is Surfshark Bypasser?
  16. Surfshark Bypasser is the provider's very own split tunneling technology.
  17. Every time you connect to your security software, this reroutes all the traffic to its VPN tunnel. Here, it uses various encryption tactics to safeguard your data and anonymity while providing you with a fresh IP address. The latter depends on which servers are you opting for, among the 3,200+ available.
  18. Enabling Surfshark Bypasser, you will be the one in charge to decide which traffic to direct through your VPN encryption and which one to leave under your usual internet connection.
  19. When should you use Surfshark Bypasser?
  20. Surfshark Bypasser can come in handy for several purposes. As we mentioned before, some apps, services and websites may not work properly unless you turn off your VPN. Banking sites and business networks might require your actual location to work. Also your wireless home devices will need your right IP address to establish a connection.
  21. An active streaming VPN will change the content you can watch on sites like Netflix, Amazon Prime and Disney+. Although this is great for bypassing catalogs' geo-restrictions, you will need to exclude these sites from your VPN traffic to keep streaming locally.
  22. The same principle applies in case you want to keep your real IP address to access some local news online outlets, but you need a secure and foreign location to protect your data when browsing other sites.
  23. A VPN connection can slow down your connection at times, too. You can then enable Surfshark Bypasser to allow data-heavy apps that do not require encryption to run at your normal speed.
  24. Instead of excluding what doesn't need protection, you can even have more control on your sensitive information instead.
  25. It is worth a reminder that the apps and websites on that you will apply the split tunneling option (on the Surfshark app this comes under the name Bypass VPN), will no longer benefit from the VPN encryption. This means that malicious actors and your ISP will be able to snoop on your activities and access your data. We recommend always keeping your sensitive and personal information secure inside the VPN tunnel.
  26. How to set up Surfshark Bypasser
  27. Now that you know everything about Surfshark Bypasser, learn how to customize your service's protection following this step-by-step guide:
  28.  
  29. Login to your Surfshark App - it is available for almost every device, including macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android.
  30. Head on the settings - then click Bypasser.
  31. Customize your protection - Add the apps, websites and IP addresses you want to exclude (clicking the Bypass VPN option and taking your pick) or include (toggling the Route via VPN button and browsing your choices) from your VPN protection.
  32.  
  33. What about other providers?
  34. Surfshark is not the only VPN giving this option to its users. Other providers offering a split tunneling feature include ExpressVPN, NordVPN, Private Internet Access, CyberGhost, IPVanish and Hotspot Shield.
  35. However, every service has very different levels of support and customization.
  36. For example, IPVanish only has split tunneling in its Android and Amazon Fire TV VPN apps. ExpressVPN has it everywhere but just for apps or devices, while NordVPN and Hotspot Shield works on both an app and URL-based split.
  37. As a rule of thumb, you will always have to head on your VPN settings in order to enable split tunneling and customize your choices.
  38. Split tunneling: what it does and why you need it
  39. VPN split tunneling – called Bypasser on the Surfshark VPN app – is a VPN functionality. It allows users to choose what data will use the VPN connection (with encryption and routing via the VPN server) and which will be transmitted via the usual internet means.
  40. Let’s say you’re using your Windows 10 computer and notice that YouTube is running slow with the VPN. So you select the split tunneling function on your VPN app and add YouTube to the list of addresses that will use split tunneling. Then, you’ll be able to watch YouTube as if you didn’t have a VPN, even though the VPN will still be working and protecting other services.
  41. How does VPN split tunneling work?
  42.  
  43. When you use the internet the regular way , you just connect to a website or service.
  44. When you use a VPN , all your traffic is first encrypted by the VPN client, then sent to the VPN server, and only then transmitted to a website or service.
  45. When you use a VPN and split tunneling, you essentially have two connections: the VPN for most of your data and a regular connection that goes straight to a website or service you chose via the split tunneling feature.
  46.  
  47. What are the different types of VPN split tunneling?
  48. There are three main types of VPN split tunneling:
  49. Inverse split tunneling
  50. This may be a little confusing, but a lot of internet literature describes inverse split tunneling as routing most of your traffic via VPN and only some via the regular internet. You’ll notice that this is how we’ve been describing split tunneling up to this point because that’s how the use of Surfshark’s Bypasser function is imagined to be used the most. What follows is that non-inverse or regular split tunneling would transmit most of your data via a regular connection, and only some specific stuff would go through the VPN.
  51. URL-based split tunneling
  52. This kind of split tunneling operates on website-by-website basis. So if you’ve designated only, say, YouTube.com to use split tunneling, your normal browsing will be protected by the VPN, while anything you do on YouTUbe.com will be transmitted over the usual public internet.
  53. App-based split tunneling
  54. This kind of split tunneling can be used to make certain apps not use the VPN connection. Say you are a PC user and don’t want Steam to go over the VPN connection - by adding it to the split tunneling list, you’ll make Steam connect normally
  55. Why use split tunneling?
  56. Secure sensitive data
  57. Although sometimes you may want to turn the VPN off for certain things, there is information you always want to secure. That’s where split tunneling comes in. You can encrypt some data and leave other data unencrypted.
  58. Use different IP addresses
  59. A VPN changes your IP address to the VPN server’s IP. When you choose to bypass some apps from VPN use, those will use your own IP. This way you can use two IPs at once and access local content on specific apps while staying hidden on the others.
  60. Access wireless home devices
  61. Your wireless home devices (e.g., printers) use your real IP to connect to your other devices (e.g., phone). If a VPN changes your phone's IP, things could get tricky. Simply add the app connecting your phone and printer to Bypasser, and they will always be connected!
  62. Exclude data-heavy apps
  63. Using a VPN may slow your speed down. Usually, this drop won’t impact you much, yet there may be times when this interferes with what you want to do. Simply use Bypasser to choose which apps do not require encryption, and they will run at your normal speed.
  64. Split tunneling for Windows, Android, and routers
  65. When it comes to Surfshark, Bypasser, the split tunneling feature, is supported on Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11 and Android apps. So any device that can run Windows or Android apps should also be able to run Bypasser.
