Lightway, supported apps and router options.
Editorial update: 9 November 2026. Sources below are provider documentation, not our own benchmark measurements.
What to explore
Explore Lightway, supported devices and router options. Compare the features you actually need on the devices you use. Read the source and the conditions alongside each description.
Lightway
Lightway is ExpressVPN’s VPN protocol. Its design and implementation are documented by the provider. This assessment does not establish a best-in-class speed result or claim that it is easier than every alternative.
Provider source: https://www.expressvpn.com/lightway. Feature availability can change.
TrustedServer
ExpressVPN describes its TrustedServer infrastructure as running VPN servers in RAM. This concerns the server design; it does not mean that account, billing or support systems retain no data. Read the policy and relevant audit scope together.
Provider source: https://www.expressvpn.com/features/trustedserver. Feature availability can change.
Locations and supported devices
The provider’s server page currently lists coverage in 113 countries. Coverage, individual locations and plan allowances can change. Check the current server list and device requirements before subscribing; a country count does not measure speed or suitability.

Speed and streaming: the evidence limit
This page does not present a fresh controlled benchmark or a verified list of streaming services that work in every region. Speed depends on your baseline connection, route, protocol, server load and device. Streaming access depends on the service, region, account, device and time.
If a feature is essential, check the applicable terms and evaluate it on your own setup within any eligible refund period. A money-back guarantee generally requires payment first and is different from a free trial.

Questions worth asking
- Does the exact plan include the features on my operating system?
- Which traffic is routed through the VPN and what happens if it disconnects?
- What information is retained, and what does any published audit cover?
- What is charged now and on renewal, and which refund conditions apply?
