Difference between Virtual Network Card Mode and System Proxy Mode
? Simplified Explanation: Two VPN Modes
? 1. Proxy Mode
✅ What is it?
Only sends specific apps’ traffic through the VPN — like browsers or apps that support proxy settings.
? Key Features:
-
Works only with apps that support proxy protocols (like HTTP, SOCKS5).
-
Other apps on your system don’t go through the VPN.
-
Faster and lighter on system resources.
-
Some apps (like games or built-in network tools) might bypass the VPN.
-
More flexible — you can choose which apps use VPN and which don’t.
? Best For:
-
Browsing websites
-
Light or casual VPN use
-
When you only want to route some traffic through the VPN
? 2. Virtual Network Card Mode (TUN/TAP Mode)
✅ What is it?
Creates a virtual network card and takes over all traffic on your device, routing it through the VPN tunnel.
? Key Features:
-
Sends all traffic (web, apps, games, system services) through the VPN.
-
Supports all protocols: TCP, UDP, DNS, ICMP, etc.
-
More secure and complete coverage.
-
Uses more system resources than proxy mode but is more stable.
-
Common in VPNs like OpenVPN, WireGuard, L2TP, IKEv2, etc.
? Best For:
-
Streaming video
-
Online gaming
-
Remote work / accessing company networks
-
Full security and encryption
