A fast, private VPN for Amsterdam.

Why CueVPN works well in Amsterdam

Amsterdam users connect to our Nuremberg region (Germany). That single hop keeps latency in the 12–28ms range on a typical residential connection — low enough that voice calls, video calls, and routine browsing feel like an unprotected connection.

On public Wi-Fi at Amsterdamairports, hotels, and cafés, CueVPN encrypts every byte your device sends with WireGuard’s ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher. Network operators see only the encrypted tunnel — not the sites you visit, not session tokens, not metadata that could be linked back to you. ISP profiling and advertiser tracking based on your IP stop at the device.

We don’t advertise “virtual” locations or rented IP ranges: every region listed in the app is a real CueVPN server we operate ourselves. Today that’s Helsinki, Nuremberg, Singapore, and Boston — small enough that we can audit and harden each box, large enough to cover Europe, Asia, and North America at low latency.

Privacy on public and private networks in Amsterdam

When you browse without a VPN in Amsterdam, your ISP sees every unencrypted request — and even with HTTPS, they see the domains you look up through DNS. Advertisers and data brokers aggregate this traffic to build profiles that follow you across devices and sessions. CueVPN routes all DNS through its own encrypted resolver, making your browsing history invisible to your ISP and to anyone else monitoring the network you’re on.

CueVPN’s kill switch adds protection that matters especially on mobile networks common in Amsterdam. When you switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data — or when a network hiccup drops the WireGuard tunnel — the kill switch immediately blocks all internet traffic at the OS level. Nothing escapes unencrypted in the gap before the tunnel reconnects, so your real IP is never accidentally exposed.

WireGuard — the protocol CueVPN uses

We chose WireGuard over OpenVPN and IKEv2 because of its dramatically smaller attack surface. The entire WireGuard codebase is around 4,000 lines — compared to OpenVPN’s 100,000+. Security researchers have formally audited WireGuard’s cryptographic design, and it has been part of the Linux kernel since version 5.6. Fewer lines means fewer bugs, and fewer bugs means better security for Amsterdam users who rely on CueVPN every day.

The encryption layer is ChaCha20-Poly1305 — a stream cipher designed to run fast on mobile processors that lack hardware AES acceleration. The result is a full-strength encrypted tunnel that draws minimal battery compared to older VPN protocols, making CueVPN practical for all-day use whether you’re commuting, working remotely, or travelling through Amsterdam.
