Why the same VPN tests differently on every connection
Your NBN plan tierthe ceiling — a VPN never raises itDistance to serversame-city Sydney server: tiny costEurope or the US: much largerTime of daypeak evening congestion dragseverything — test both endsProtocol overheadWireGuard / NordLynx / Lightwaycarry less drag than OpenVPNFair test: same device, same server city, once off-peak and once at 8pm — with and without the VPN.Run it inside the refund window, and you'll know more than any review can tell you.

Your NBN plan sets the ceiling — a VPN can only subtract from it. How much it subtracts depends on three things you control: how far away the server is, whether you're testing at peak hour, and which protocol the app is using. That's why we don't publish speed numbers: your result on your connection is the only one that matters.
