Deeper NetworkDPN by Deeper Network
DPN combines three routing modes, app-aware tunnel assignment, and network filtering in one device-level app. The mode you choose determines which traffic uses a tunnel and which traffic stays direct.
Choose the traffic policy
Switching modes changes the active tunnel policy. Existing tunnels are disconnected when the mode changes so the new policy can be applied consistently.
Route supported apps independently across selected tunnels.
Smart Route applies app-aware rules. An app can use an assigned tunnel while other traffic stays direct or follows another available route.
App Relocator is available in this mode.
Send traffic through one selected exit route.
Full Route uses a unified exit instead of separate assignments for different apps. Changing modes disconnects existing tunnels before the new routing policy is applied.
App Relocator is not available in this mode.
Keep traffic direct while retaining filtering controls.
Direct Route does not use a proxy exit for ordinary traffic. DNS/IP filtering and supported network security features can remain active.
Use this mode when an exit tunnel is not needed.
App Relocator
App Relocator stores an app-to-tunnel assignment for each selected app. In Smart Route, those assignments let different apps use different country routes at the same time.
Filtering layers
Routing and filtering are separate controls. Direct Route can still use filtering even when ordinary traffic is not sent through an exit tunnel.
Applies domain and IP rules for categories such as ads, trackers, and malicious destinations before supported connections are made.
Requires the Deeper Network root certificate. Without the certificate, HTTPS filtering does not work correctly; on Android, it applies in web browsers only, not inside other apps.
Product boundaries
A full-tunnel VPN sends included traffic through one exit. DPN also offers Full Route, while Smart Route can apply different routes to supported apps.
Split tunneling commonly chooses tunnel or direct. DPN App Relocator can assign supported apps to selected country tunnels in Smart Route.
Deeper Connect is a separate hardware product for network-level deployment. DPN is software installed and operated on an individual device.
FAQ
Yes. DPN: Beyond VPN is developed and published by Deeper Network. It is a software product separate from Deeper Connect hardware.
No. App Relocator assigns different routes to supported apps and is available only in Smart Route. Full Route sends apps through one route, while Direct Route keeps ordinary traffic direct.
Smart Route can keep selected country tunnels available and use app-aware rules across them. Available nodes and tunnel limits depend on the current service configuration.
DNS/IP filtering applies domain and IP rules before a connection is made. HTTPS filtering inspects supported HTTPS traffic and requires the Deeper Network root certificate to be installed.
Yes. HTTPS filtering depends on certificate support. On Android, the installed certificate works in web browsers only and does not apply inside other apps.
No. DPN runs as an app and does not require Deeper Connect hardware. The two products use different deployment models.
