    I've used Overplay and found them excellent
    Have to be honest, they were recommended to me also, so I haven't priced around or tried others

    Hi. It all depends on the software you are going to use, but once you sign up, they will give you a username and password and all the access details for the particular vpn you wish to use and then you just insert those into whatever software you use
