Does anybody know of a VPN solution that is actually stable (like it works 90% of the time)?

I'm currently using Witopia but in the past two months the connection drops more often than it stays up.

My experience with both Witopia and ExpressVPN is that have sporadic problems recently and that the secure links seldom stay established for very long (when I am lucky, an hour or two).

That's what you get for trying to use social networking to stay in touch with friends and family while you're a guest in this esteemed country. You don't need your friends back home. You have plenty of friends here. That's why they call us 'foreign friends.'
