FAQ: Watch DStv with a VPN

Does ExpressVPN work with DStv?

Yes. ExpressVPN’s high-speed servers in South Africa are optimized to give you fast, throttle-free access to DStv. This means you'll never have to sacrifice privacy, security, or video quality while watching your favorite content.

Is DStv free with a VPN?

No. DStv offers paid membership accounts, and ExpressVPN is not a replacement for DStv. Rather, it complements your existing DStv account to help you watch content securely at blazing-fast speed. A DStv premium membership lets you enjoy on-demand content and live TV that’s bound to be lekker .

Will a VPN slow my DStv streaming?

All VPNs have the potential to slow your internet connection, but ExpressVPN is one of the fastest, and users rarely notice a difference. If you’re seeing an error for any reason, you can contact ExpressVPN Support 24/7 to get back online.

In some cases, using a VPN to stream DStv may actually improve your video quality, particularly if your ISP is throttling bandwidth on streaming services.
