What is a VPN Kill Switch?

Frequently asked questions

What is a VPN Kill Switch, and how does it work?

A VPN Kill Switch is a critical security feature designed to prevent data leaks. It continuously monitors your connection to the VPN server. The moment it detects any instability or a drop in the secure connection, it automatically blocks all internet traffic to and from your device. This ensures your real IP address and online activity remain hidden until your VPN protection is fully restored.

Why do I need a Kill Switch? Can't I just rely on a stable VPN connection?

Even the most stable internet connections can drop unexpectedly due to Wi-Fi hiccups, server maintenance, or background software interruptions. Without a Kill Switch, these brief moments of disconnection can expose your IP address and unencrypted data to your ISP and anyone else on the network. The Kill Switch acts as an essential safety net, guaranteeing your VPN security is never compromised.

Is GatewayVPN's Kill Switch enabled by default?

Yes. To provide always-on kill switch protection from the moment you start using our service, the Kill Switch is automatically enabled on all our apps. You can rest assured that you are protected immediately after installation.

How do I test if the Kill Switch is working?

We provide easy-to-follow guides on how to test a VPN kill switch. A common method is to try to access a website while intentionally disrupting your VPN connection (e.g., by turning off your Wi-Fi for a moment). If the Kill Switch is active, your internet access will be completely blocked until the secure VPN connection is re-established, confirming the feature is working correctly.

Is the Kill Switch important for torrenting?

Absolutely. A VPN kill switch for torrenting is considered essential. It protects your privacy by ensuring that your real IP address is never exposed to other peers in the torrent swarm if your VPN connection falters during a long download, preventing potential legal or privacy issues.

Does the Kill Switch work on all devices and operating systems?

GatewayVPN's Kill Switch feature is available on our Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android apps. The implementation is seamless and integrated into each platform's native app, providing consistent data leak protection across all your devices.

Can I turn the Kill Switch off?

Yes, you can disable the Kill Switch from within the app's settings. However, we strongly recommend keeping it enabled at all times to maintain the highest level of VPN security and ensure your privacy is never accidentally exposed.
