What's the difference between Wireguard and Lightway, which is ExpressVPN's new VPN protocol?
This is a question that has been asked quite a bit as beta testers like me have been using the new connection. It's not yet released as open source yet, but there's a lot that makes it look very similar to WireGuard.
Both VPN protocols offer the same benefits (lightweight, stable connections that don't drain the battery) but ExpressVPN insists that it's an entirely new protocol. So who's right?
Which VPN protocol do you prefer? Leave a comment here to explain why. And for those that would like to test out both Lightway and/or WireGuard, use the links below to find the best places to do that:

This is how i like to watch my info on youtube. Relaxed, on the point, factual and (assumably) unbiased. Very nice
Thanks mate. Good explanation
Glad it was helpful, Karl!
Thanks Josh for the vid.. can you please tell me if lightway protocol is available for routers? For example NordLynx is not available for routers only on OS and app
Why would I use a closed-source protocol from a random VPN company and blindly trust it? Why go create your own protocol when there are standardized options? Backdoored crap. No thanks. Only Wireguard and OpenVPN will get our full trust and attention.
Having more options isn’t a bad thing, in my opinion. I’m all in favor of ExpressVPN creating a new protocol, and I’m confident it will actually end up being a very respectable protocol (it’s in their best interests to do so), but I’m not going to either sing their praises nor accuse them of creating a back door until the source code has been released.
@@AllThingsSecured It’s like asking you to trust a ‘surgeon’ to do a heart transplant surgery on you but he hasnt been board certified or shown us his diplomas because we need a wide variety of doctors. No, we need battle tested and audited protocols. No sham experiments in this industry - trust is everything and is gained by providing proof or review from industry experts. we have audited standards for a reason. They have neither released the source code nor publicly released an audit. That makes it a non-starter. A VPN isn’t a tool to “test the waters” with. It’s supposed to be mission-critical security tool that can be used for extreme security needs but also be used to bypass geo-restrictions in more relaxed use cases. I guarantee they will eventually cave in and go Wireguard when they see that it’s not picking up with the masses. A VPN is built on trust. We trust OpenVPN because it’s stood the test of time against very strong attacks and two very high profile industry audits. We trust Wireguard, which gained endorsement of Linus himself(a mighty feat in and of itself), got pulled into the mainline kernel, back-ported to priors, passed MIT computational proofs, and received a third party audit.
Good info presented very well. Keep doing what your doing and I'll keep watching. Thanks for the education!
My pleasure!
I would say as long express vpn haven’t released the core source, then I won’t trust them. For me personally I have changed my private vpn to WireGuard from openvpn about a half year ago and tbh I haven’t seen any issues for my use case
I can respect that. Hopefully they release the code soon.
ExpressVPN don't really have anything positive to say about Lightway that isn't a positive of WireGuard as well, so I have to imagine it's aimed at cost savings for them on the server side, maybe using some AES construction instead of ChaCha20-Poly1305 because their server hardware accelerates AES.
Maybe so, I'm not sure. Personally, I think they're just trying to develop a proprietary protocol that, if effective, they could license to other VPN providers in the future. Just a guess, though.
ExpressVPN have made Lightway open-source now. Personally I prefer Lightway. It's very fast, and it doesn't drop when switching networks, or even when switching between ExpressVPN servers. Lightway supports TCP and UDP, whereas WireGuard only supports UDP. That can be a problem on some wi-fi networks with restrictive firewalls as VPNs over TCP are more likely to get through the firewall.
Interesting comparison. Wireguard doesn’t drop when switching networks, though.
@@AllThingsSecured you're right, WireGuard doesn't drop the connection, I was just explaining why I prefer Lightway.
Great quick info!
Glad it was helpful!
Great stuff man, subscribed 👍🏻
Thanks, Colten!
Josh, I kind of like your grin.
Ha! I kind of thank you. 😂
Did you make a speedtest connected with wireguard and lightway?
No, I didn't. I don't really believe in the efficacy of speed tests.
Any thoughts about running wireguard within Home Assistant? They now have it as an addon. I have OpenVPN right now but I get about 1/3 of the speed when its on.
I've never tried it personally, Guy, but if you can get it setup, my bet would be that it's slightly faster.
@@AllThingsSecured I got it up last night and it’s more than double the speed within my WiFi network.
Good info, keep it up 👍
Thanks so much, Sai!
@@AllThingsSecured How about the Surfshark VPN?
It's a lot of value for the money.
Consider a review, Josh?
Have you seen this one I did? ruclips.net/video/kZjK-Ieeg5k/видео.html
@@AllThingsSecured
Till now, I had thought Prime video search engine sucks.
RUclips joins the list😶.
Sorry, Josh!
express vpn spends more money on advertising then they probably do on R&D...no opensource---norhankyou
You’re probably right, although unfortunately that’s not entirely uncommon.
But it the fastest vpn on indonesia market, i try many different vpn,
"Not (yet) open..." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
We'll see....
Not Open source, no thank you. I will not trust a company just by their word. Stay with OpenVPN/TCP my friends
I get it. Hopefully they’ll post it as an open source code soon.
ExpressVPN have already confirmed its going to be open-source. It even says on their website: "And soon, the core library of Lightway will be open-sourced, ensuring that it can be transparently and widely scrutinized." If they say this, and then don't deliver, they'll be ripped to shreds.
i will never use ExpressVPN just junk thay are nord is the best lol
they murder someone in turkey an raid vpn servers there was nothing. while nord was hacked.
So what makes ExpressVPN junk and NordVPN the best?
@@DigitalLobstershow explain more
@@flowergardenrgarse7152 just google "turkey murder Expressvpn."
03:36 - Is it really difficult though?
- Express has been hacked
- Express is the single company using the Lightway protocol.... and will likely be the ONLY company to use it becuase it will likely never be open source
- You, yourself listed a handful of providers that use Wireguard by default this = user option based on server location, reliability, etc.
In short, there are WILDLY massive differences.... the problem is, you have affiliate links. And just like everyone else, create these click-trash videos. For gods sake, you have a video with a title that starts with "Don't use a VPN..."
Fix yourself.
Ha! Thanks for the feedback here. I know you're trying to stick it to me, but I think my video is in line with what you're saying here. I honestly don't care if you use ExpressVPN and I don't think I tell anybody to use them in this video.
