CyberGhost VPN's blazing-fast network gives you the speeds you need to watch seamlessly in the highest resolution available. Our busiest locations have 10-Gbps servers.

Do you experience slowdowns or drops in video quality whenever you start streaming? Some ISPs throttle your streaming traffic to conserve bandwidth.
Don’t let your ISP stand between you and your Lauchhammer marathon. Use CyberGhost VPN to encrypt your traffic. VPN encryption prevents your ISP from monitoring your activity, meaning it won't throttle you because you're streaming.
Take CyberGhost VPN for a test drive risk-free with the 45-day money-back guarantee.
Escape ISP Throttling
Enjoy ARD on Public Wi-Fi
Public Wi-Fi is convenient but can be risky. Unsecured networks are an easy target for cybercriminals looking to steal your data.
CyberGhost VPN keeps snoops and bad actors away from your data, so you can live stream ARD without worrying about your privacy. We use tough encryption and a built-in kill switch to protect your data at all times.
As an extra measure, you can set up the Wi-Fi protection feature to automatically launch CyberGhost VPN when you’re about to join an unsecured network.
It’s getting harder to protect your online privacy. ISPs and websites track your activity and some companies even sell your data. Most countries even have data retention laws, which force ISPs to store your activity logs.
That’s why CyberGhost VPN is headquartered in Romania, where there are no data retention requirements. Our dedication to your privacy is upheld by our strict no-logs policy.
We don’t track or collect any of your browsing data. Our RAM-based servers are routinely wiped so nothing remains.

FAQ
No. In fact, you’re unlikely to find a free (and safe) VPN with fast servers in Germany.
Free VPNs are typically slow and have limited bandwidth, which results in significant buffering and lag. Worse, free VPNs often sell usage logs. If you’re not paying with your private data, then you’ll have to deal with annoying in-app advertising.

Everything You Need in a VPN
Can I use a VPN to unblock a streaming service from a different country?
Some streaming fans may connect to a VPN server in the country where a certain streaming service is available in order to watch from a different country. While we don't snoop on our users' online activity, this is against our terms of service and is not acceptable.
Rest assured that CyberGhost VPN never logs your browsing data and your activity is always private, but you should always comply with all relevant terms and applicable law, including copyright.
