Thanks mate, wasn't sure if you had to set up a proxy to your specific IP. Don't really know anything about this topic haha.
A proxy is a server set up to route your internet traffic while hiding your actual IP address. Most VPN services add latency to your connection because your signal has to take extra hops between your house and your destination. You can set up a proxy server in your home with a router or extra computer, which can reduce added latency, but a VPN service will do things like hiding your IP dynamically or change the physical location associated with your IP. Playing video games behind a VPN service isn't recommended, especially because of the added latency. The added latency comes from the physical location of the VPN server.
