Download SoftEther VPN

SoftEther VPN is a powerful, open-source, multi-protocol VPN software developed at the University of Tsukuba, Japan. It supports SSL-VPN, L2TP/IPsec, OpenVPN, MS-SSTP, L2TPv3, and EtherIP protocols, making it one of the most versatile and compatible VPN solutions available.

SoftEther VPN can penetrate corporate firewalls and NAT devices more effectively than traditional VPN solutions, as it uses HTTPS (port 443) for its SSL-VPN tunneling — a port that is almost never blocked. It is suitable for both self-hosted VPN servers and connecting to public VPN Gate relay servers maintained by volunteers worldwide.

Free, open-source, and feature-rich, SoftEther VPN is trusted by organizations and individuals worldwide who need a flexible, high-performance VPN solution without licensing costs.
