Nintendo Switch brought handheld gaming back to life. That means you’re likely connecting your Switch to public Wi-Fis. Public networks are notoriously insecure, so you’re putting yourself at risk of cyberattacks. You’re also likely to encounter slow speeds, throttling, and freezes when you’re on a different Wi-Fi network than your own.
CyberGhost VPN helps you secure your connection and get back in the game without online threats.
The Nintendo Switch doesn’t natively support VPN apps, so you can’t download one from the Store. CyberGhost VPN offers a Smart DNS option so you can connect to one of our DNS servers and use our service.
1. Become a Ghostie. It’s fast and easy.
2. Go to your account.
3. Go to My DNS Settings.
4. Click on 'Activate IP Address'
5. Enter our Smart DNS into your Switch’s settings.
Voilà! You’re ready to jump into online matches.
For more information, check out our step-by-step guide.
You can also configure CyberGhost VPN directly on your router. This will cover all your devices including your Nintendo Switch, so you won’t have to keep changing the DNS address on all your devices.
If you have DD-WRT firmware you can opt for our Smart DNS feature again.
1. Become a Ghostie. It’s fast and easy.
2. Go to your account.
3. Go to My DNS Settings.
4. Activate your IP.
5. Enter our Smart DNS into your router’s settings.
6. Restart your router.

Your internet service provider (ISP) isn’t your friend when it comes to online gaming. PvP matches are good fun, but they take up a lot of bandwidth. This causes your ISP’s servers to become overloaded and slow. ISPs then throttle you, meaning they intentionally slow down your connection. They ease traffic congestion, but you get lag, buffering, and even crashes.
CyberGhost VPN lets you resume your online matches. Our VPN reroutes your traffic through an encrypted VPN tunnel, so your ISP can’t see what you’re up to or throttle your Nintendo Switch connection.
The bad news - You lost patience trying to rank up in Battle Royale, turned on auto-aim or noclip mods, and got yourself banned. Now what? The good news - Most bans are IP-based. This is where CyberGhost VPN comes in to get you back on track.
Simply connect to a CyberGhost VPN server to hide your IP. This will replace your IP with one of ours. Now you’ll no longer be using the banned one and the game’s system won’t be able to recognize your ban anymore. You can resume your Apex, Super Smash Bros™, or FIFA™ sessions right away!
Start fresh with CyberGhost VPN. Just be on your best behavior next time to avoid a permaban.
Nintendo is famous for not barring players based on their geo-location, but it still needs to comply with local laws.
Fan favorites like Animal Crossing, Fortnite, or Plague Inc. aren't available within Chinese territories, while third-party games like Mortal Kombat 11 are famously forbidden in countries like Australia or Indonesia.
Connect to a CyberGhost VPN server outside your region and create a new account. The Nintendo Store will think you’re in a different country and give you access to all the games.
Whenever you’re in an online lobby, people can see your IP address, putting you at risk of DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks. These attacks overload your internet connection and cause everything to crash on your Nintendo Switch.
Use CyberGhost VPN to hide your IP and encrypt your connection. You’ll be surfing online using one of our IPs instead. This makes it impossible for attackers to target you. Play online without having malicious attackers boot you off the servers.
Get in touch with our 24/7 support team to find out more about how you can secure your connection from attackers.
You need a stable connection to play online games lag-free on your Nintendo Switch. We’ve optimized our servers to give you the highest speeds and unlimited bandwidth. Reduce your ping and get the best response time with CyberGhost VPN.

Nintendo Switch doesn't support VPN apps natively. You can use a VPN service on your Switch with CyberGhost VPN, though. We offer a Smart DNS feature so you can cover your favorite gaming console. This is a great way to use a VPN service to improve your ping, download more games, and protect yourself from DDoS attacks.
Not at all. Free VPNs aren’t a great idea if you’re looking to play online games. Free VPNs have poor infrastructure, and are slow and overcrowded. You won’t get a stable connection with top speeds like you do with a paid VPN. CyberGhost VPN has an extensive server network so you’ll always have smooth and buffer-free online matches. Try us out risk-free with our 45-day money-back guarantee.
No, we have no idea what you’re ever up to on our servers. We have a strict No Logs policy in place, meaning we never monitor or store your browsing history, IP address, bandwidth usage, or DNS requests. CyberGhost VPN is registered in Romania, which has some of the most privacy-friendly laws around. No government authorities can force us to monitor you or share your data.
VPNs are designed to reroute your internet traffic and add a layer of encryption to your connection, so you can expect some speed loss. That said, not all VPNs are created equal. CyberGhost VPN has an enormous server fleet with many servers and no data caps or bandwidth limits in place. Our fast VPN servers will make you forget you’re even connected to a virtual private network.
You can also play online games with your PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox Series X, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii and Wii U. CyberGhost VPN also has apps for popular operating systems, like Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux. Set up secure connections, stream to your heart’s content, and bolt down your P2P downloads.
With a first-class fleet of servers in 100 countries, we give you blazing-fast speeds and unlimited bandwidth. No more buffering, ISP throttling, or proxy errors with our VPN connection.
