Use Cases of VPN Split Tunneling

VPN split tunneling enhances your overall network performance. Making your daily work and entertainment easier and funnier

Browsing

Flexibly Browsing

Split tunneling allows you to route sensitive activities, like online banking, through the secure VPN channel, while letting you browse non-sensitive content, such as local news or social media, using your regular network. This way, you can enjoy the benefits of enhanced privacy without missing out on localized recommendations or content.

Working

Remote Working

Remote workers can access working resources safely with the VPN encrypted tunnel while doing other online activities with no lag by enabling split tunneling.

Gaming

No-Lag Gaming

Gamers can route their gaming traffic through the VPN for stability, and leave non-essential apps outside the VPN tunnel so more bandwidth goes to your match, keeping gameplay smooth and responsive.

Streaming

Fast Streaming

Split tunneling lets you choose which streaming apps use the VPN and which connect directly. With less traffic inside the tunnel, buffering drops and playback stays steady. At the same time, keep one streaming service on its local catalog while another uses a different location, both stream smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the Difference Between Split Tunneling and Full Tunneling?

Full Tunneling routes all traffic through the VPN, which enhances security but may slow down speed. Split tunneling offers more flexibility by choosing which apps and sites pass the VPN, maintaining security while improving efficiency.

Is There Any Risks of Using Split Tunneling?

No, split tunneling brings no risks by itself. All you need to worry about is the apps and sites excluded from VPN protection.

Are All VPNs Have Split Tunneling Feature?

No, not all VPNs offer split tunneling. It is a feature that varies by VPN provider. Even some split tunneling enabled VPNs can only provide an app-based split, making them less safe than X-VPN.

Is X-VPN Split Tunneling Free?

No, X-VPN split tunneling is a premium feature, it's an enhanced security tool that needs to be paid for.

What’s the Difference Between Split Tunneling and Multi Tunneling?

Split tunneling lets you route specific apps or websites through the VPN while others bypass it, offering flexibility. In contrast, multi tunneling routes all traffic through the VPN (like full tunneling) but allows you to assign different VPN servers to specific apps or websites. For example, you can use a domestic server for secure tasks and an international server for streaming, improving both security and regional control. Multi tunneling offers better security and bandwidth management, but may be slower than split tunneling due to the extra routing.
