Multihop VPN

Network Privacy

A VPN route that goes through two or more servers.

Definition

Multihop sends your traffic through multiple VPN servers (hops) instead of one, adding extra layers between you and the destination.

In plain English A VPN route that goes through two or more servers.

Why this matters

Why it matters: It can reduce correlation risk, but usually costs speed and still depends on provider trust.

Example

Example: Your traffic exits from country A but also passes through country B first.
