Proton VPN Windows client prevents LAN access. Help!
When the Proton VPN Windows client is connected to the VPN, I am unable to access other PCs on the LAN. If PVPN is disconnected, then the PCs are accessible. The setting in the client to allow LAN access is enabled. The PCs on the LAN all have static IP addresses, as do all the networking devices. So, how can LAN resources be made available when PVPN is connected?

Toggle option to exclude Smart Routing servers in settings
For all ProtonVPN clients, there should be a toggle option in Settings that allows you to exclude Smart Routing servers from your connection. Something like:
"Exclude Smart Routing servers (use only servers physically located in your selected country)"
When you set up your Default Connection to be in your own country, you may be connected to Smart Routing servers which are physically located in another one and therefore will have worse latency.
For example:
A user in Argentina sets their Default Connection to "Argentina" for minimal latency. Without excluding Smart Routing servers, they might connect to a server physically in…

Replace location switch timers with advertisements
The way that the free version of Proton VPN currently works (on mobile, at least) is that the locations users can switch to are randomised, and there are timers that force you to wait between switches. Not only is this annoying for users, but from a business perspective, it doesn't seem very profitable. I understand that these features are here to encourage people to buy the premium version, but that leaves the people who don't want a subscription not being profitable at all. My proposal is to replace the timers and randomisation with needing to watch an ad to switch…

Physically Located VPN Server on the Philippines
Hello,
Could you please consider adding or switching to a server provider that is physically located in the Philippines?
I’ve noticed that other VPN providers like Mullvad and Windscribe use Zenlayer for their Philippine servers. Perhaps Proton could explore incorporating Zenlayer as well to enhance local connectivity and performance.
Thank you for your consideration.

Low Profile VPN Servers/IPs
Almost all Proton IPs are polluted with bad reputation due to various malicious acts made through its VPN. This is really really annoying for good users.
I think a large percentage of malicious acts made on Proton VPN servers are done via new accounts that are pretty quickly banned by Proton and by victims- but it still leaves a bad trace on the history of that ip.
I propose a solution that could at least reduce ip pollution for quite a few users- what if we had few servers (or ips) that you only get access to after a year…

new feature to test all servers in a country for speed and latency and get the result as list
(1) Please offer a feature to test all servers in a specific country for speed and latency and get the result as a list to chose the best server for use in other apps or as server on the router which doesn't have quick connect.
(2) Similar feature to find the best available, reachable server for countries with censorship which blocks VPN.3 votes -

Maintain 'Open' or 'Moderate' NAT Type While Port Forwarding for Enhanced Multiplayer Gaming Experience"
Why does enabling port forwarding change the NAT type from "Moderate" to "Strict"? It should either be "Open" or remain "Moderate." This distinction is crucial for many online P2P multiplayer games, such as GTA Online & many more, where a "Strict" NAT type severely hampers multiplayer functionality.
I hope that in the future, Proton VPN can address this issue, allowing users to achieve an "Open" or "Moderate" NAT type while port forwarding is enabled.
I hope this concern is taken seriously. Thank you.

make it possible to use on a Macbook Pro with a Brave and/or Safari browser
I have been having increasing difficulties accessing websites with my Proton VPN turned on -- I updated the Brave browser this morning and suddenly I am denied access to nearly every website unless I turn off Proton VPN, which pretty much makes it useless.

Add a timer to do automatic release and re-connect (adding reconnect to lowest # connections server in group)
I find, on the Mac at least, that my VPN connection will become saturated and will fail after a while. I can solve this by disconnecting and then reconnecting. This seems to flush the tcp/ip stack and allows for network traffic to begin again. I then see qBitorrent is transferring on multiple connections again. Sometimes I need to restart qBitorrent as well, but not nearly as often. I don't know if this is a bug in the tcp/ip stack or how Mac handles the traffic on an OS level. It may also be from the saturation in the network stack…

iOS widget background: remove gradient
I’m grateful for the iOS vpn widget, but the gradient background is an eyesore.
Other apps use a consistent, flat background in their widgets, dark gray in dark mode, and white in light mode. This means widgets from different apps still look nice when arranged into a “dashboard” next to each other — until I add the Proton widget, with its gradient-fade background.
I suppose the gradient is part of the Proton branding but it gets in the way here and should be skipped.

macOS - Enhanced support for fast user switching
Currently, it appears that ProtonVPN does not support multiple ProtonVPN users of the same macOS machine, while using fast user switching.
After fast switching to a second user who also launches ProtonVPN, any attempt to establish their own VPN connection is unsuccessful. If the second user's instance ProtonVPN remains open, this also causes the original user to be unable to connect if their account is later returned to.
Logging out rather than fast switching does not appear to cause the same issue. Nor does manually closing ProtonVPN before making a fast switch to another user.
Other VPN providers enable multiple…

Apple tv NetShield support
The apple TV app needs NetShield Ad-blocker support. Without this its almost useless as it is now. I really should match feature parity with the Ipad version at the minimum but NetShield would at least make it usable.
