Radmin VPN report card
Good · out of 4.0 · graded Nov 13, 2026
Best for a free virtual LAN for Windows PCs
Radmin VPN joins remote Windows PCs into one virtual local network for free, for LAN games or private team access. It is a Windows-only private-network tool, not a service with exit servers in other countries.
Who Radmin VPN is for
- Fits if friends want to play LAN games over the internet
- Works for a small team that needs its PCs on one private network
Who Radmin VPN is not for
- Skip it if you want a VPN to change your country, because it has no exit servers
- Not for you if you use a Mac, Linux or a phone, as only Windows is supported
- Watch out: full remote control needs Radmin Server, set up separately
- Watch out: some connections fall back to Relay/TCP, which depends on your provider or firewall
Why Radmin VPN gets a 2.6
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- AValue for moneyFree to download and use, with no ads or paid features according to the vendor. Famatech earns its money from a separate product, Radmin.
- AFree plan and trialThe whole product is free, with no paid tier to be pushed up to.
- CFeaturesIt builds a virtual LAN well enough for the job, but remote control needs Radmin Server, and it does not route traffic through exit servers like a consumer VPN.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. You create or join a network and share its details with the other PCs.
- DPlatforms and integrationsWindows only: the download page lists Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7, and no Mac, Linux or mobile version.

Keep Radmin VPN, or make your own?
Keep it
Radmin VPN is free, so making your own would save you nothing.
And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces.
What you could not
- Servers in dozens of countries, kept fast and private.
- A fast, secure link to another computer through any network.
- A real app for Windows. Something home-made would be a web page.
- End-to-end encryption done properly.
What this rests on. Radmin VPN’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Radmin VPN?
Radmin VPN creates a virtual local network between Windows computers, including ones behind firewalls, so they can share files, run LAN games and reach each other. It pairs with Famatech's Radmin remote-control product for full remote access. The vendor says it is free, with no ads or paid features.
Worth knowing
- The download page lists Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7 only, with no Mac, Linux or mobile versions.
- Full remote control needs Radmin Server, installed from the Help menu, and a user set up in it.
- It is a private-network tool for your own computers, not a service that routes traffic through exit servers in other countries.
- Some connections fall back to Relay/TCP, which the help page ties to the internet provider or firewall.
Key features
- Virtual local network
- Create a network with a name and password, then have other computers join it; members appear in the main window and can be pinged from its context menu.
- Works behind firewalls
- Connects computers behind firewalls. The help page notes a Relay/TCP fallback when a direct connection cannot be made.
- Radmin remote control
- Install Radmin Server from the Help menu and choose full control from a remote computer's menu to control it through the VPN.
- LAN gaming over the internet
- The vendor says it does not limit the number of gamers and provides setup instructions for several games.
- Encryption and no-log policy
- The vendor describes 256-bit AES end-to-end encryption and says it does not track, collect or sell private data.
