Protect everything,
everywhere, all at once

Aircove is our range of pioneering VPN routers, complete with built-in VPN protection. We launched Aircove in late 2022, as the first and only wireless internet router designed to connect to ExpressVPN right out of the box. In 2024, we introduced Aircove Go, a travel Wi-Fi router with the same VPN integration as Aircove but now with increased portability and new exclusive features.

Apart from VPN support, the Aircove range also comes with built-in advanced protection features: Threat Manager, an ad blocker, and parental controls. These are designed to work seamlessly with the VPN, providing easy, always-on protection with one easy-to-use router—wherever you are.

While any router can provide internet access, our Aircove range of VPN routers goes one better: It instantly brings all the benefits of ExpressVPN to everything on your network. If it’s connected, it’s protected. You don’t need to install ExpressVPN on any other device, if you don’t want to.

Aircove has also been built with security top of mind. An audit conducted by cybersecurity firm Cure53 confirmed that our home VPN router, Aircove, has a robust level of security.

On Amazon.com and the ExpressVPN store, you may find several product listings for Aircove and Aircove Go. Due to region-specific regulations, there are separate listings for customers in and outside of North America, but they are functionally the same.

There are sometimes refurbished units available on FlashRouters or Amazon.com. These units are in as-new condition and have been cleaned, tested, and reset to default settings before they are repackaged.

If refurbished units are available on Amazon.com, you'll see the option to purchase a “renewed” Aircove/Aircove Go unit. Check the seller name that appears below the “Buy Now” button on the product page on Amazon.com to determine the condition of the unit:

• If you see "Sold by: Express Technologies Ltd," the unit is brand new.

• If you see "Sold by: FlashRouters," the unit is refurbished.

If you come across merchants other than those mentioned above, please be aware that they are not authorized resellers and will not be covered by ExpressVPN's warranty.

Although Aircove and Aircove Go come with ExpressVPN preinstalled, you still need to activate your router with an ongoing subscription if you want to enjoy VPN benefits. If you’re a new ExpressVPN user, you’ll enjoy a free 30-day ExpressVPN trial with your router purchase.

But even without an active ExpressVPN subscription, your router will continue to perform standard Wi-Fi and network functions, and its advanced protection features will operate as normal.

No, these features are included with your Aircove or Aircove Go router.

Yes, these features can be used with or without the VPN.

A portable/travel VPN router is a compact and travel-friendly device that is pre-configured to support a VPN connection.

For users who want to enhance the security and privacy of their internet connections while on the go, especially when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks in hotels, airports, cafes, and other public spaces, a portable/travel VPN router is a must.

If you have multiple devices that need VPN protection, a portable Wi-Fi router with built-in VPN, like Aircove Go, could be useful because you can connect multiple devices to the VPN simultaneously instead of configuring the VPN on individual devices. A portable VPN router also adds an extra layer of security to your connection, protecting you from potentially unsecure public Wi-Fi networks.

When you have a portable VPN router, all your devices will remember and rejoin the network automatically. So in each new hotel room, holiday rental, or co-working space, you just need to connect your VPN router, and every other device you have gets connected without having to sign in separately.

Yes, using a portable VPN router when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks in hotels and holiday rentals is recommended.

Public Wi-Fi networks in hotels can be less secure, making your data vulnerable to potential threats like hacking or snooping. A VPN router encrypts your internet connection and masks your IP address, preventing third parties like the hotel's network administrators from monitoring your online activity.

Using a VPN router, as opposed to connecting to the VPN via a separate app, lets you instantly and automatically secure all your connected devices. This affords you unparalleled convenience that might come in handy when you’re traveling!

Setup instructions vary based on the router and VPN service you're using, but in general, you’ll need a travel router that supports VPN connections, such as Aircove Go, as well as a subscription with a VPN service that supports router connections.

Yes, if you are using Aircove at home, you will need an ISP to connect to the internet. Your ISP gives your home access to the internet, while Aircove distributes the internet access to all your connected devices.

If you want to access streaming content, yes. Aircove and Aircove Go do not come with any streaming accounts, so if you don’t already have a subscription to Netflix, HBO, Hulu, Prime Video, or any other paid streaming service, you’ll need to sign up separately.

No, Aircove/Aircove Go is a single router where all wireless traffic and requests pass through one access point. If you have an existing mesh system, Aircove/Aircove Go can be connected to one of the nodes with the highest concentration of devices that you want to protect with a VPN.

​​In our testing, Aircove/Aircove Go’s high-performance quad-core CPU enables download speeds of up to 910 Mbps over Ethernet and 615 Mbps over Wi-Fi with VPN disconnected.

When the VPN is in use, Aircove/Aircove Go offers speeds of up to 180 Mbps for multiple devices simultaneously. (For reference, 4K streaming typically requires download speeds of 25 Mbps, while HD requires 5 Mbps.)

When Wi-Fi Link is in use, Aircove Go offers speeds of up to 250 Mbps. Using Wi-Fi Link can limit your speeds because it is doubling the Wi-Fi transmission path between your device and the internet.

Maximums are based on ideal use conditions. Actual range and performance depend on your internet service provider, home size, layout, device usage, building materials, and obstructions.
