¿Por qué confiar en esta guía?
I have run Avast SecureLine VPN for eight months across Windows, Impermeable, Android and iOS.
Every step here comes from the app itself, not from marketing pages.
Avast VPN is one of the better known VPN services on the market.
Most people switch it on once and never touch the rest of the app.
This guide shows you how to use Avast VPN properly, feature by feature.
Paso a paso, con capturas de pantalla y consejos profesionales.
Tutorial de Avast VPN
This How to Use Avast VPN tutorial walks through the whole VPN app, from the installation process to the settings most users never open.
Avast VPN
Hide your IP address and connect to the internet via secure Avast VPN servers in almost 60 locations. Bank-grade AES 256 bit encryption, a Kill Switch and Smart VPN mode come standard. Start free trial access today, no card charged until it ends.
Primeros pasos con Avast VPN
A virtual private network works like a private tunnel through the internet.
It encrypts your traffic and swaps your real IP address for one belonging to a VPN server.
Here is my own walkthrough of the app:
Ahora vamos a desglosar cada paso.
Paso 1: Crea tu cuenta
Open the Avast site and click Start Free Trial.
Enter your email, create a password, then enter payment details to unlock the trial.
The free trial runs 60 days on desktop and seven days on mobile dispositivos.
✓ Control: A confirmation email lands in your bandeja de entrada.
Step 2: Download and Install the VPN App
On Windows or Mac, download the installer from your account page and run it.
On an Android device, grab the app from the Google Play store; iOS users take the App Store.
Mac and iOS ask you to allow Avast to add VPN configurations during the installation process.
Así es como se ve el panel de control:
✓ Control: The main screen shows a large power slider.
Step 3: Switch the VPN On
Click the red OFF slider so it changes to green ON.
That is the whole trick to connect to the VPN on any device.
It works over any wired or wireless internet connection.
✅ Hecho: Ya puedes utilizar cualquiera de las funciones que aparecen a continuación.
Cómo usar Avast VPN para la ciberseguridad en pequeñas oficinas y oficinas domésticas

Paso 1: Abra la aplicación
Launch the Avast VPN app on your PC or Mac.
Sign in with the Avast account tied to your paid subscription.
Step 2: Turn Protection On
Click the red OFF slider so it turns green ON.
That single switch starts the VPN connection for the whole device.
Así es como se ve:
✓ Control: The slider reads ON and shows a connected server location.
Step 3: Add Your Home Network
Save your home Wi-Fi network as a trusted private network.
✅ Resultado: Every app on the computer now routes through Avast VPN servers.
💡 Consejo profesional: Turn on Smart VPN mode so the VPN connects itself on any unsecured Wi-Fi network.
Cómo usar Avast VPN para la ciberseguridad en pequeñas empresas
Pequeña empresa Ciberseguridad lets you roll the same VPN client out to a small team without touching every machine by hand.
Aquí te explicamos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Pick Your Deployment
Avast SecureLine VPN se puede instalar en entornos gestionados o no gestionados.
Managed setups push the installation process from one console.
Step 2: Assign Seats
Activate the subscription on up to 10 devices with a Multi-Device plan.
Así es como se ve:
✓ Control: Each seat shows as active inside your Avast account.
Step 3: Lock the Defaults
Set a default VPN server so staff never pick a random one.
✅ Resultado: Your team connects to the internet via secure Avast VPN servers every session.
💡 Consejo profesional: Keep one spare seat free for a phone you may add later.
How to Use Avast VPN Patch Manager

Aquí te explicamos cómo usarlo paso a paso.

Click the menu icon, then open the general VPN settings panel.
Step 2: Enable Auto Updates
Switch on automatic updates for the VPN client.
Old builds are the top cause of failed handshakes.

Aquí te explicamos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Paso 1: Confirmar el cifrado
Avast SecureLine VPN uses AES 256 bit encryption, rated as bank-grade.
Step 2: Turn On the Kill Switch
The Kill Switch blocks your internet connection if the VPN drops.
Nothing leaks while the tunnel reconnects.

Load any IP checker site and confirm the address changed.

Step 3: Run a First Scan
Start a full scan before you enable the VPN mode you prefer.
✅ Resultado: Malware scanning and the VPN app now run side by side.
💡 Consejo profesional: Avast SecureLine VPN is a standalone application, so it works without Avast Free Antivirus installed.
How to Use Avast VPN Anti-Tracker
Anti-pista lets you strip the browser fingerprint that a VPN alone cannot hide.
Aquí te explicamos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Install AntiTrack
Add AntiTrack to the same computer running your VPN client.
Step 2: Turn On Fingerprint Masking
Enable masking so trackers see scrambled browser data.
A virtual private network hides the IP address, not the fingerprint.
Así es como se ve:
✓ Control: The dashboard lists trackers blocked this week.
Paso 3: Revisar el informe
Open the weekly report to see blocked tracking attempts.
✅ Resultado: Your online privacy holds up even against fingerprint tracking.
💡 Consejo profesional: Run AntiTrack and the VPN together for real internet privacy, not just a hidden location.

✅ Resultado: Leaked records get pulled while the VPN protects new sessions.
💡 Consejo profesional: Do the first broker sweep on a wired connection so nothing times out.

Step 3: Set a Scan Schedule
Pick a weekly scan time when the computer is idle.
✅ Resultado: Malware defence and the VPN app cover the same device.
💡 Consejo profesional: Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7 editions — Basic, Home, Premium, Professional, Enterprise, Ultimate Service Pack 1 — all run these apps.
Cómo usar Avast VPN Secure Browser PRO
Navegador seguro PRO te deja navegar in a hardened browser with the VPN switch built into the toolbar.
Aquí te explicamos cómo usarlo paso a paso.
Step 1: Open Secure Browser
Launch Secure Browser PRO and sign in to your Avast account.
Step 2: Flip the VPN Switch

Errores comunes que debes evitar al usar Avast VPN
Mistake #1: Expecting a Free VPN Inside Antivirus
❌ Incorrecto: Assuming the free VPN ships with Avast Premium Security at no cost.
✅ Derecha: Buy the separate paid subscription, since SecureLine VPN is billed on its own.
Mistake #2: Forgetting the Trial Bills Itself
❌ Incorrecto: Letting free trials lapse and getting charged on day one of the plan.
✅ Derecha: Cancel inside the trial window, or claim the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Mistake #3: Staying on One Overloaded Server
❌ Incorrecto: Keeping the same server location while streaming stutters.
✅ Derecha: Connect to a different city nearby, or pick a streaming server.
Solución de problemas de Avast VPN
