Experiences with Game VPNs? (hackertalks.com)

Game overlay networks, game onion networks, game VPNs, they're all words for the same thing. Like mudfish http://mudfish.net

For people playing across the globe, you connect to their servers, and they give you a better global transit to the other side of the planet. For better latency for games.

Do people have recommendations for a game performance network they use? They've had good experiences with?

I've been playing with mud fish, and it's okay, I was just hoping people had some other recommendations.

The only use-case I van provide I'd at some point FFXIV was being routed to a bad tower or something which caused constant dc's / horrible lag and using a vpn to change the area / towers I would route to totally removed that issue.

It has since fixed itself and the vpn did help, but I don't think its a magical fix for bad internet
