Does vpn encrypt data traffic or only wifi?
These questions all assume your vpn provider supports bb10 and you have the profile set up in the phone already.
1. When you're on a cell phone using data only, does traffic still get encrypted? Does the traffic go like this: phone, cell tower, vpn server, website?
2. If you are on a public wifi, or your friends wifi, and your Vpn profile is set on your phone does the traffic go like this: phone, router, vpn server, website?
3. If you have wifi on your phone with vpn already set up, does some traffic still go through the data?
4. I use a combination of wifi and data and I use duckduckgo for searching and don't use any google products whatsoever and email is hosted offshore. What can I expect in terms of how much of my traffic would be kept private from my cell provider, Internet provider and anyone trying to sniff traffic?
5. With a vpn, how are sms, mms and bbm messages encrypted?
Before anyone recommends setting up my owne vpn at home, this isn't an option. I don't mind using a vpn provider if the set up is fairly easy.
Thanks in advance!
