You can have up to 5 simultaneously connections on every default purchase. You can add more connections with a reasonable price.
There are 4 encryption strength for the anonymous VPN, they are none, BF-CBC (BlowFish), AES-128-CBC and AES-256-CBC. For better performance, you can select UDP instead of TCP protocol.
