Pro Tip for Windows VPS Users: If managing remote servers where you cannot install third-party software, follow our native tutorial on How to Connect to VPN from Windows via L2TP/IPsec without third-party clients.
Method 2: macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) setup
The native macOS client integrates cleanly into the macOS menu bar, allowing one-click connection toggles without cluttering your workspace:
- Download the disk image: macOS Client (.dmg).
- Double-click the
.dmgfile and drag the VPN application into your Applications folder. - Open the app. When prompted by macOS, allow the System Extension to create the encrypted tunnel configuration.
- Log in with your account credentials, choose your server node, and toggle the switch to ON.
Method 3: Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, and Arch) installation
The Linux client provides a lightweight graphical user interface built for modern distributions:
- Download the self-contained installer: Linux VPN Client (.run).
- Open your terminal, navigate to your downloads directory, make the binary executable, and run it:
chmod +x vpnclient.run ./vpnclient.run - Authenticate with your Aminserve account and connect over WireGuard for maximum throughput.
Method 4: Amazon Firestick and Android TV sideloading

Method 5: Mobile devices (iOS and Android)
For smartphones and tablets, native apps provide automated network switching between Wi-Fi and 5G cellular data:
- iOS (iPhone & iPad): Install directly from the Apple App Store. It configures the iOS VPN profile automatically upon login.
- Android Phones & Tablets: Install directly from the Google Play Store. Supports per-app split tunneling so you can route specific banking or streaming apps through the VPN while keeping other traffic direct.
Protocol selection: WireGuard vs OpenVPN vs IKEv2
Selecting the right tunneling protocol optimizes your connection for security or raw speed depending on your network conditions:
- WireGuard (Recommended): State-of-the-art cryptography (ChaCha20, Poly1305), near-instant handshake, and highest bandwidth throughput. Best for gaming, 4K streaming, and fast downloads.
- OpenVPN UDP: Robust standard for mixed networks with high packet loss resistance.
- OpenVPN TCP (Stealth Mode): Encapsulates VPN traffic over port 443 (HTTPS) to bypass restrictive firewalls and DPI (Deep Packet Inspection) blocks.
- IKEv2: Industry-standard mobile protocol offering seamless roaming between Wi-Fi and cellular networks without dropping active connections.
