Best VPNs for Fox Sports Go

ExpressVPN Demo

ExpressVPN is the best VPN for accessing Fox Sports; I think the way it combines some of the best speeds in the game with all the security features you need to keep you safe online puts it ahead of the competition. 

ExpressVPN allows up to five simultaneous connections so you can protect all your devices without having to purchase new accounts. It has great apps for all the popular platforms and a great one for routers too if you'd like to protect your entire home network. 

Built for streaming 

If streaming is your top priority, look no further than ExpressVPN. As I said just above, you can use it on five devices at once – which is less than other VPN providers, but more than enough for me – and the servers are amongst the fastest on the market.

ExpressVPN has over 3,000 servers worldwide, and services multiple locations in the USA including New Jersey, Tampa, and several others. This makes it a great choice for unblocking Fox Sports, as there's much less chance of server congestion and slower speeds. 

If privacy isn't your main priority, you might want to use ExpressVPN's smart DNS service called MediaStreamer. Smart DNS services help you spoof your location without encrypting your traffic, and can sometimes be a bit quicker than normal VPN services. 

TrustedServer Technology

ExpressVPN is no slouch when it comes to security either. In fact, it was one of the first VPN providers to switch to RAM-only servers, for instance. RAM-only servers are much more secure than hard drives because every time the server is powered down, all session data is lost - nothing is written to a disk. RAM servers need power to store information, and when that's cut off, they can't any longer. This helps ExpressVPN guarantee that no activity logs are kept in a much more meaningful way. 

ExpressVPN also uses the AES-256 bit encryption standard to encrypt user data and provides a kill-switch so that there's never a second you're online without your VPN connected. The provider also has a split tunneling feature, which will allow you to route some traffic through the VPN and other bits through your normal internet. 

The price of your privacy

ExpressVPN, for all its bells and whistles, is one of the most expensive providers out there. I can confidently say, however, that you're still going to get very good value for money. The key words here are trust and reliability. ExpressVPN has been in the game for a while now, and the company has a flawless record of preserving user privacy, and it's truly one of the most reliable services around.

Security issues are nigh-on non-existent and there are few – if any – VPNs that can unblock the amount of content ExpressVPN does. What's more, the provider offers a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you don't even have to be convinced the software is for you until you test it out. 

Nord Demo

NordVPN is all about speed and providing customers with tons of features to configure for the ideal experience. Based in Panama, this provider is a no-logs VPN that allows up to 6 simultaneous connections – so if you thought ExpressVPN's 5 wasn't enough for watching Fox Sports and other streaming services, then maybe Nord is the provider for you. 

NordVPN has 24/7 customer support available and P2P support, as well as a host of other features that make it well worth the money. 

Lightning-fast speed 

NordVPN's USP is definitely its speed. The provider consistently leads the way in our daily speed tests, and this is a vital advantage when it comes to picking a VPN for sports.

There are few things worse than a stream dropping or buffering just as your favorite team is bolting for the line, lining up a home run, or about to defend a free-kick - but with NordVPN, this horrible situation is very unlikely to arise. 

NordVPN's NordLynx technology, which is built around the WireGuard protocol, is excellent if you want maximal speed and security at the same time and something unique to this provider. 

Innovative security features

NordVPN of course has all the standard security features you'd expect from a good VPN provider, including a kill-switch, private DNS service, and AES-256 bit encryption. However, it also has a double VPN setting for people who want to reroute their traffic through two private servers instead of one and an onion-over-VPN tool that hooks you up the Onion network. 

NordVPN has obfuscated servers - which means your internet service provider won't know you're using a VPN – and they're diskless too, which has a similar effect to ExpressVPN's TrustedServer technology which was mentioned in the above review. 

Can it stream?

NordVPNs speed would all be for nothing if it couldn't unblock sites like Fox Sports from outside of the United States. NordVPN's track record with sites like Netflix is good, as it is with Amazon Prime and Hulu. Overall, it's an excellent VPN when it comes to unblocking US sports content and much, much more. 

Just like ExpressVPN, NordVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee – if you want a refund within this time period, the provider is more than happy to oblige.

Surfshark Demo

Surfshark can help you mask your IP address and unblock all sorts of content, including Fox Sports. The provider is based in the British Virgin Islands and has only been in the game since 2018, but has made quite a splash in that time for providing top-tier service for a lot lower price. 

The provider has quite a broad range of features for a more budget-friendly service and also upgraded its server infrastructure last year to make them all diskless, so they're powered on RAM only like ExpressVPN. Surfshark also has a 24/7 customer support line and the website has some great guides on how to troubleshoot a variety of issues. 

Fast speeds at a low cost 

Surfshark has pretty impressive speeds and consistently performs well in our speed tests. It might not have a server network to match the size of providers like PIA and NordVPN, but it's a great choice for streaming stuff from the United States like Fox Sports as it has plenty of speedy servers there.

Surfshark's speedy servers mean you can connect to local servers near to you, preserve your privacy, and essentially experience no drop off in user experience or in the time it takes you to load webpages, movies, or any other type of content. 

A well-maintained server network

Surfshark has a server network consisting of over 3,200 servers in 100 countries worldwide. Over 500 Surfshark servers are located in the US, spread across more than 20 cities. But the geographical spread means it's not just Fox Sports and other US services you can unblock, but content from all around the world. 

Surfshark can unblock Netflix catalogs from different regions, Hulu, Disney+, and a long list of other sites that typically geo-restrict their content. Surfshark even notifies you which servers are the closest and the fastest so you don't have to keep reconnecting until you find one that works for you. 

Loads of useful features

Surfshark has loads of different tools for you to use to keep yourself protected while you unblock content from other countries. Camouflage mode will hide that you're using a VPN from your internet service provider, whereas the CleanWeb tool will make sure you don't run into any malware or annoying adverts while you're using the internet. 

It also offers a split tunneling feature, which will let you route some traffic through the VPN and some of it through your normal connection. It also has a Smart DNS (which works like a VPN to spoof your location - it's usually a bit quicker but doesn't give you the same privacy because your traffic isn't encrypted) attached to its software, and a multi-hop function that will reroute your traffic through two servers instead of one, creating an extra layer of protection. If you download Surfshark today, you'll have 30 days to test the software while still being able to get a full refund.

PIA Demo

Private Internet Access is a consistent performer in the VPN sphere, impressing with its excellent range of security features and unwavering commitment to keeping no logs of user activity. 

I would recommend PIA to anyone who fancies themselves as having a little bit more technical nous than the average person – it's not that it isn't a beginner's VPN (you'll definitely still have a good time with it if you're new to the tech), but this has quite a lot of configurable settings for a VPN – which many will be glad of! 

Global network, US focus

Fox Sports is going to be pretty easy to unblock and stream with Private Internet Access because it has more servers in the US alone than most VPN providers have worldwide. This means you're less likely to connect to one that's congested and more likely to have a sublime streaming experience. 

PIA can unblock lots of other content too, and has servers in 84 countries which will help you do so. It also offers up to 10 simultaneous connections through one account, which is great if you have family or friends wanting to unblock region-locked streaming services like Fox Sports. 

Putting your security first

Private Internet Access has an excellent track record when it comes to keeping its users safe. PIA is based in the United States where most of its server fleet is too, and the company has been dragged into a couple of court cases since its inception.

This has, however, only resulted in the provider being unable to cooperate because it doesn't keep any user activity logs. No better way to know a no logs claim is legit than that! 

Private Internet access uses exclusively bare metal servers – meaning it's the only client using them – and equips users with a kill-switch, as well as an ad and malware blocker called PIA Mace. Its software is entirely open source too, which is nice to see, and it of course uses the AES-256 encryption standard for encrypting internet traffic. 

Linux users - this one's for you!

PIA has fully featured clients for Linux that work for all the most popular distros like Ubuntu and Fedora, whereas most other VPN brands you will have heard of usually just supply a command-line. If you're a Linux user looking to unblock Fox Sports – or anyone else trying to access the US site, for that matter – you can download PIA's software and claim your money back after thirty days if you're not happy thanks to its refund guarantee. 

CyberGhost Demo

CyberGhost is a VPN provider based in Romania, safely outside of the jurisdiction of the five eyes security alliance. Although the provider does keep some minimal connection logs and usage statistics, no user activity logs are ever kept and you can take that as a guarantee. 

The provider will allow 7 simultaneous connections on one account, which is more than both NordVPN and ExpressVPN, and what I'd probably look for considering I often flick between multiple devices for streaming – especially when it's sport and sometimes I'm watching on the go. 

A no-frills service

CyberGhost has nowhere near as many features as some of the other VPNs on this list, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing – I think it's a great VPN for beginners, specifically because it keeps it simple, gives you everything you need to stay protected online. CyberGhost equips users with kill-switches and encrypts all traffic with the AES-256 encryption standard.

The only downside to CyberGhost is that it doesn't have obfuscated servers. Obfuscated or 'stealth' servers are servers that hide the fact you're using a VPN to obscure your traffic and mean your internet service provider can't even see you're using one. This makes it less of an option if you're trying to access Fox Sports, for instance, from a country like China where VPN use is illegal. 

Surf in style

I personally find CyberGhost's mobile apps really easy to use and, as a side note, they're also incredibly slick and amongst my favorites in the VPN world in terms of looks. This might not be the most important thing in the world, but a well-designed UI can make or break a product.

Overall though, it's incredibly easy to navigate through on mobile or your computer and that's exactly what you should be looking for in a VPN you'll primarily use to unblock sports content shown on channels like Fox Sports – there's nothing worse than getting in ready to stream your favorite team's game only to have to faff around with VPN settings for 10 minutes. 

Stream beyond Fox Sports

Although CyberGhost does a perfectly good job of unblocking Fox Sports, its more than 9,723 servers spread across 91 countries makes it a good shout for all sorts of content. It even has streaming-optimized servers designed specifically for this sort of task, several of which are located in the United States. 

CyberGhost wasn't content with offering a 30-day money-back guarantee, so has instead opted to offer new customers a huge 45 days to decide whether they like the software enough to keep it.
