Browse Routes by Location
Destinations are grouped by Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, and other regions as a general guide, not as a list of currently available servers. Route examples are shown where confirmed; other route types are not inferred. Check the panel for available countries, cities, and entry names.
How to read the streaming column: “Check availability” means this page makes no definitive claim about support. It does not mean a service is supported or unsupported. Regional licensing, account region, egress detection, and platform policies can all affect access; verify directly in the app you plan to use.

Location labels describe the route’s intended destination; they should not be taken to mean that the entire transmission path stays in that region. The client’s entry point, the networks used for cross-border transmission, and the egress location identified by a website may all be different. For region-specific services, check the final egress location rather than relying only on the route name or entry point.
Coverage does not mean every region has the same route types or that all options will always be available. After signing in, update your subscription and check the current list. If a tutorial screenshot differs from the client, follow the information in the panel and avoid outdated configurations.
IEPL, Relay, and Direct Routes
Route types describe how traffic is carried, not a performance ranking. The following explains general principles and cost structures; it does not promise fixed performance for any route or imply undisclosed charges for different types.
IEPL Routes
IEPL generally refers to an Ethernet private line. Its cross-border segment uses dedicated transmission resources to separate some business traffic from changes in public internet routing. Its value lies in how the path is managed, not in serving as a substitute for testing your apps. Your local network connection to the access point and the connection from the egress to the destination website still affect the experience.
These resources generally involve dedicated capacity, access, and maintenance costs, with a cost structure different from public internet transmission. They may suit work, interactive tools, and extended viewing where a consistent connection matters. Test with your usual tasks at typical usage times to see if a route works for your network. “Private line” does not guarantee a fixed speed, a dedicated egress, or access to every app.
Relay Routes
A relay route connects to an intermediate node first, which then forwards traffic to the destination egress. The extra hop is intended to adjust the combination of access and cross-border routing, not simply shorten the geographic distance. More hops do not necessarily mean a slower connection, and similarly named relay routes can perform differently in practice.
Costs typically involve access resources, forwarding capacity, and egress resources, depending on the network arrangement; they cannot be assumed to be lower or higher than those of a private line. Everyday browsing, video, and work are all worth testing. If something goes wrong, try another route in the same region first to help distinguish a location mismatch from a path issue.
Direct Routes
A direct route generally means the client connects to the destination node over a public internet path without a separate business relay entry point. The path is more direct in form, but traffic still travels through carrier networks. Routing, interconnection between networks, and the destination egress all affect performance; “direct” does not mean there are no other network hops between you and a website.
Direct routes generally use fewer additional business relay resources, but egress and public internet transmission still have costs. Lower resource costs do not necessarily mean a lower-priced plan. A direct route can be a daily option or a backup when local network conditions are suitable. If it performs poorly on only one access network, keep the egress region and try a different route type.
Compare Routes by Use Case
Start with the task you need to complete, then choose a location and route. Change one variable at a time to get useful results; changing the location, client mode, and app settings all at once makes issues harder to pinpoint.
Everyday Browsing: Check the Whole Page
If you have no specific location requirement, start with a nearby egress available in the panel. Don’t just check whether the homepage loads: open a familiar site and test images, search results, and content after signing in. If text loads but images or attachments do not, check split tunneling and DNS settings before assuming the region is unavailable. Keep a route with a different path as a backup for comparison.
Streaming: Check Regional Availability First
Streaming availability depends on platform rules by region, account status, and egress detection. First check whether the content is offered in that region, then test sign-in, playback, and sustained viewing. If you see a regional restriction message, note its wording to distinguish licensing restrictions from connection failures. 4K playback also depends on content quality, your platform plan, playback device, and local network; route type alone cannot determine the result, and no fixed streaming quality is promised.
AI Tools: Consider Regional Eligibility and Stable Connections
Services such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini each have their own supported regions and account policies. Choose a region permitted by the service and try to keep your connection environment consistent; avoid switching egress locations repeatedly while signing in. Go beyond loading the website: submit a prompt and test streaming responses and file uploads. Website access does not guarantee that an API or IDE extension uses the same route. Check proxy settings and access separately for developer tools.
See the AI Connection GuideGaming: Check the Server Region and Compatibility
Games can be sensitive to brief connection drops, route changes, and protocol support. Check the game’s server region first, then confirm whether your client routes the relevant traffic. A website loading does not prove that a game connection is compatible. VPNK9’s international route subscription is not a promise of dedicated gaming optimization. Compare routes using the same game and server region under similar network conditions, and follow the gaming platform’s rules on network tools.
Work: Prioritize Session Stability
Video calls, remote desktops, code repositories, and cloud documents each need different checks. For calls, monitor audio and video over time; for documents, test saving; for code, confirm that both pushes and pulls complete. Company systems may use egress allowlists or access reviews, so check with your administrator before changing egress locations. A standard subscription route is not a static IP service and cannot replace company-required authentication or access controls.
Separate Network Issues from App Issues
A connected status in the client only confirms that the connection state has changed. Also check that your target app is actually using the selected route and that the egress region meets the needs of your task.
Check Egress and Split Tunneling
After connecting, visit the IP Check page to view your egress details, then test the app you actually use. Browsers, command-line tools, and other programs may use different proxy settings, so one test result does not automatically apply to every app. If only one program fails, first check its connection method and whether the expected split-tunneling rule applies.
Interpret DNS results in the context of your client mode. If different tools show different resolver locations, don’t draw conclusions based on location alone. First check that DNS requests and application traffic are handled as expected, then decide whether rules need adjusting. Have an administrator review any changes to a company network configuration.
Keep Reproducible Troubleshooting Details
Record your device platform, current network, route name, target app, and exact error message before comparing results. Try another route in the same region first, then consider changing regions to reduce account-region changes as a confounding factor. If you need to refresh your subscription, get the current configuration from the panel; don’t use configuration files from unknown sources.
When reporting an issue, hide your account password and subscription credentials. Say whether you can’t establish a connection, a page won’t load, or an app shows a region or account message to help narrow down the cause. For assistance, share these details through a support ticket in the panel.
Rules Beyond Route Selection
VPNK9 supports Windows / macOS / iOS / Android / Linux, with unlimited simultaneous devices. Unlimited devices do not change your plan’s data allowance; check your account usage against the tasks running across your devices. Get the client from the user panel and access your subscription after signing in. Downloads for Windows, macOS, Android, and Linux are available after sign-in; the iOS link requires an active plan.
No email address is required to create an account; you can sign up with a username and password. Monthly plans are ¥9.9/month for 60GB, ¥18/month for 250GB, and ¥28/month for 500GB. Data resets monthly on your activation date; mid-cycle upgrades are prorated by the remaining days. Estimate your browsing, video, and work usage before choosing a plan rather than inferring data needs from route names.
For occasional use, data packages are also available: ¥158/300GB, ¥358/1000GB, and ¥658/3000GB. They remain valid until used and never expire. Payment methods include Alipay / WeChat Pay / USDT, and a 7-day refund policy is available. Check the plans page for full pricing and billing details, and read the Terms of Service for the refund rules.
This service follows a no-logs policy. When choosing an egress region and route type, follow the laws where you are, the target service’s terms, and account security requirements. Network routes carry traffic but do not provide third-party account eligibility, content rights, or business authorization. Test your connection with these boundaries in mind for more reliable route selection.
