*Manual IKEv2 setup is available to Premium users only.
**Freemium users can connect to IKEv2 protocol via the PrivadoVPN app. 

 

 

1. Log in to your Privado Admin area; copy and save your Privado Username for a manual connection. The Password will be the same as the one you use to log in to the Privado Admin area or the PrivadoVPN application. You will need these details later on to set up your IKEv2 connection. 

 

2. After saving your username, click https://app.privadovpn.com/en/server-list or https://app.privado.live/en/server-list. Find your preferred server location on the left. Next, under "Server" copy and save your server name.

• Optionally, you can use either the server name (ex. ams-005.vpn.privado.io) or the server IP (ex. 91.148.224.50) from the next column as your server name.  
  "Capacity" means the percentage of free available slots on a particular server; i.e. the higher the number is, the better.
