Easier than a plug-and-play setup, users just tap-and-connect to the Teleport app. This allows users to securely connect to their home network, even when not at home. Its unique VPN software protects user data and online presence by granting secure access to their home AmpliFi network, tunneling connections back to the home and masking users’ IP address. Because it is based on 1:1 connectivity, it is more likely to work reliably where VPN servers that host many connections are blocked.

According to a recent research report from Global Market Insights, Inc., the global VPN market is expected to grow from the 2018 value of $17bn to $54bn by 2024 due to rising cybersecurity concerns. With this free VPN software update for all AmpliFi users, Ubiquiti continues to disrupt the networking industry by delivering on performance and features important to users without subscription fees.
